Well, DC is not a state, so I would imagine there is no national guard. They have to use the military.

Why?

Maybe these idiots will back off

Washington DC let ALL the rioters on Trump’s Inauguration Day go with nary a slap on the wrist.

Can they ARREST people?

Or more importantly, can they shoot them down like dogs in the street?

F*** arresting them. Kill them. Society will be better off, and it will save a lot of cost and paperwork.

I gave it thought. I wasn’t told to not say anything. They are going up against a bunch of untrained thugs. I am not concerned.

but with what is going on I am of the mindset looters should be shot.

Absolutely. If they pick up a brick, they should be shot.

[Ha! They do a combat jump into the National Mall. Even I, a major 82d hater, would have to admit that’d be pretty cool. ]


Isn’t every jump tough on the knees and hazardous, given power and telephone lines, as well as other obstacles in the city? How’d you like to land on a TV antenna? Or a steeple?

DC is Federal territory. No restriction on use of troops there.

Can they conduct drumhead court-martials?

Just asking for a friend?

World War II vet I knew said that when they freed Buchenwald they shot guards trying to pass as inmates. After Malmedy, they took no SS prisoners. After Omar Bradley said he was "sick and tired" of hearing about German snipers surrendering, rear guard German soldiers who surrendered with empty clips (his word, he meant magazine) would be given a three step head start to "escape".

It is my recollection that Eisenhower thought the decision was wrong, but he believed it should be enforced because the Court is part of the government.

I believe DC has National Guard.

I’ve been retired for a while, but they used to have Military Police units.

US Marshals deputies would work. Can it be done?


I believe Dianne Feinstein was deputized as a U.S. Marshal. This allowed her to carry concealed everywhere within the U.S. This was because she, unlike you or me, is an important person whose loss would be a devastating to the Republic.
