Seems familiar...
So this is the way that Nappy Nazi, America's soon-to-be Pimp-In-Chief, legitimizes his gangbanger supporters. By giving them official police powers to (among other atrocities) disarm those who might tend to oppose the upcoming repeal of the Second Amendment.
Of all the things that this socialist has hidden, said in the past, denied to date, associated with then disassociated with, THIS by far is the MOST frightening thing I have ever seen.
In all my days I NEVER thought anyone would promise to walk brown/black/blue shirts through our country and the population would stand for it.
It just amazes me that he is even in contention for POTUS after making this plan public.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posse_Comitatus_Act
The Posse Comitatus Act and the Insurrection Act substantially limit the powers of the federal government to use the military for law enforcement.
The Posse Comitatus Act is a United States federal law (18 U.S.C. § 1385) passed on June 16, 1878 after the end of Reconstruction. The Act prohibits most members of the federal uniformed services (the Army, Air Force, and State National Guard forces when such are called into federal service) from exercising nominally state law enforcement, police, or peace officer powers that maintain “law and order” on non-federal property (states and their counties and municipal divisions) in the former Confederate states.
The statute generally prohibits federal military personnel and units of the National Guard under federal authority from acting in a law enforcement capacity within the United States, except where expressly authorized by the Constitution or Congress.
An end run around this law?

Looks like I’m going to have to prepare to take somebody to court......
Can’t have the military roaming our streets, keeping ‘peace’, so call them a Civilian force. Shudder. Gee, we’ll be like any Banana Republic. Or Odinga’s Kenya. Or Nazi Germany - your papers, please. And sadly, I can see lefties defending it’s establishment and use if it ever came to that. After all, the civilian force won’t be after the good little lefties...
Thread bump.
This quote is so out of context in so many ways I’m getting tired of debunking it.
The quote refers to continuing and expanding an organization to enter war zones immediately post-conflict and rebuild & restabilize them - an organization started under Bush.
Unfortunately the “brownshirts” meme has taken hold of this so strongly there’s no room for truth.
