If we cut spending with our military and use the savings to fund this new 'civilian national security force', what will we have saved and why do it at all? Where do our state militias fall in all this? Wouldn't they be considered 'civilian national security forces'? What about our National Guard?

I'm very suspicious of this 'new' group and dislike cutting funding to our military.

Isn't one of our rights the right to a strong defense? Isn't trying to undermine and underfund our military unconstitutional?

Because he can't use the Military to put down civilian dissent...but he could use the "civilian National Security Force" (aka Gestapo).......

It’s just putting into place a national network of well organized and motivated thought police who are ready to spring into action using communist secret police and nazi tactics when weapons of mass destruction (WMD”s) are used on American and Obama declares martial law.

We will all be labeled enemies of the state. What do you think will happen to those of us who can’t or won’t be expediently re-educated?

“one of our rights.” We may have one or two right left, but not much more. This proposal is another beginning to a communist state, like the Obama true patrol. People who complain of Obama or his plans will be turned in and punished by the civilian security forces.

I’m wondering if Obama will want to federalize, arm and supply local police organizations.

I wonder what they’ll be “securing”. It seems unlikely that they’ll be securing our borders and even more unlikely that they’ll go overseas. That just leaves our streets which is clearly unconstitutional.

Relax, Mr. Obama already has the civilian national defense force. The only thing he needs it to transfer the money for it. It's called ACORN. It's just a matter of expanding the activities from “mortgage fraud” and voter fraud to new endeavors in Chicago thuggery. Once the black panthers are fully trained and deployed, there won't be the need for all those nasty military people.

Sounds like Obozo has you half in the bag on this Gestapo.

Your post contains 6 questions on the subject. Effectivly you are discussing it.

Here is my response to the whole question: There will be no ‘civilian’ security force.

Period.

The "New Black Panthers" writ large, and equipped with M-16s and Abrams (Oh, wait - those idiots couldn't START an Abrams)

Well, a million angry black men with M-16s and government sanction, that'll be sufficient.
