Good morning all
Great topic! LOL.

I will be interested in seeing everyones thoughts especially considering this last week. I have to wonder if it would have been better to turn the entire emergency response over to the military right from the start. I can see several benefits to doing so.

I have to go up north and check on the progress of the house but I will be back later tonight. I look forward to seeing everyones thoughts.

Thanks for the facts Feather, There were several on there I did not know. I will have to see if I can somehow sneak a few into normal conversation.

Great topic! LOL.

Ha!

I think you're idea is very timely. I'm not real sure what I think about it yet. I think there are times, especially like this past week where the military could have been used as a police force. I need to study the three posts I have and see what the current deal is. I'll post my thoughts after that.

I think with the hurricane and now the loss of the Chief Justice we just were not going to get a lot of discussion on this.

Here's my take. It looks like if the law was being interpreted correctly we could have the President or Congress use the military as a police force, also we have the National Guard who are not legally bound by the law.

I can see where it could cause trouble if we tried to overthrow the government but I believe then the Guard would be used anyway, not the military. Or I guess they could sick the Navy and Marines on us. LOL.
