Finally and issue that both left and right can come together on and tell our government NO!
As some of the other posters on this thread this is the first I've heard about this piece of proposed legislation. So, I want to learn more. However, if this law empowers our military to take action against U.S. citizens on U.S. soil then I believe the Posse Comitatus Act will have to be amended or even rescinded. I would be opposed to our military being empowered to take action against U.S. citizens while on U.S. soil. However, keep in mind that we've had U.S. citizens show up on the battlefield in both Afghanistan and Iraq. So, I'm ok with wasting them in situations such as this. Also, if we are ever going to shut down illegal immigration on our southern border it will be necessary to militarize it I think which will require some amending to the Posse Comitatus Act to do this. So, guess we need to do some listening and learning and then ping our respective congress persons and senators....
