HOME RULE: The ‘yutes’ that normally terrorize the streets of DC on Friday and Saturday nights were strangely missing this evening as US Marshals began their patrols. Law abiding residents took advantage of the calm to dine out according to OpenTable.pic.twitter.com/jokeDtnSib

This is a great picture. I am 100% for US Marshalls and other Federal Law Enforcement personnel being used to augment local Police. Well done.

As I said, it is not the "What" it is the "How". There is a huge difference between Federal Law Enforcement and military. I am not for Military combat or support troops for law enforcement outside of MP units. Putting troops and civilians together is not a good idea nor look for the US.

More Law Enforcement trained people and less general troop movements.

---

Dead people and widespread looting is a much worse 'look'.

Don't give a damn about the 'look' of US troops guarding our streets and people.

Time to stop the total decline of our cities.

---

We are saying the same thing. I just don't want the military running through US cities, I am strange that way. Give Law Enforcement what they need.

How about taking from that 1T Defense budget and a few hundred million or so more for Law Enforcement. Maybe get beat cops back out in the neighborhoods. That is better than using military for law enforcement.

You keep believing that optics and look doesn't count. We run on 2 year elections, looks always matter.

Looks is what caused reduced police presense, no bail legislation, legal pot, trans multilation, hundreds of thousands of mentally ill ( usually caused by drugs ) living and dying on the streets.

Just do it without armed troops walking the streets like Chile. There are some slopes that need to be watched. You guys seem quick to give up basic American standards for Trump. It usually doesn't end well.

You keep acting like Dems are the model and it is an either or. Fund the police and fed law enforcement and prosecute who they catch. Not that complex. Reagan lowered the crime rate by prosecuting and putting them away for their full sentence. DOn't ***** that Government spending is going up when you have to maintain prisons. I have no issues, prosecute and put them away.

Don't give a DAMN about troops helping police. Really think the victims of violent crime would not have wished those troops had been there ?

We are talking policy, which has to look at the bigger picture and ramifications than 1 individuals' tactical situation. In that situation, you are not going to care if Jill Biden is holding a gun on the guy to rescue you. Although, I can't think of a worse situation for some on this Board than having to admit that Jill Biden saved their life...

If we want to get into individual tactical situations we can. We can start with population training on situational awareness and not putting yourself in bad situations. Let's look at the numbers of those in the situation you are talking about before making America a Police State.

Did you spend 5 seconds investigating this?

[Insurrection Act:
This act, which dates back to 1792, provides an exception to Posse Comitatus, allowing the President to deploy the military domestically in cases of rebellion or to enforce federal law.

Other Exceptions:
Congress has also authorized the military to assist civilian law enforcement in specific situations, such as counter-drug operations or providing support for border security.

National Guard:
The Posse Comitatus Act does not apply to the National Guard when it is operating under state control. However, when the National Guard is federalized, the Posse Comitatus Act does apply.

Examples of Military Assistance:
The military can provide resources like equipment, training, and personnel to law enforcement agencies]

Goodness, just use your brain. Trump is talking about a full federal takeover of the police forces of major US cities. That's illegal! It has never been done because it's illegal! There are obviously exceptions but what he is talking about is not one of those rare instances, he's talking about the federal government taking over the policing of cities! That's illegal! Got it?

LOL! Bless your heart. One of the most basic, fundamental requirements of government is to protect its citizens. That is supposedly why citizens pay taxes. If your beloved Blue states aren't going to do their job, Donald Trump will do it for them.

Still have no idea why you people would rather have chaos and anarchy instead of law & order. You should get really nervous when the "well organized militia" is fed up with the lawlessness.
