December 5, 200817 yr Posse Comitatus doesn't allow you to use the National Guard if they've been nationalized. Explain please I'm not fully aware of how they can become "denationalized"
December 5, 200817 yr Explain please I'm not fully aware of how they can become "denationalized" § 325. Relief from National Guard duty when ordered to active duty (a) Relief Required.— (1) Except as provided in paragraph (2), each member of the Army National Guard of the United States or the Air National Guard of the United States who is ordered to active duty is relieved from duty in the National Guard of his State, or of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, Guam, or the Virgin Islands or the District of Columbia, as the case may be, from the effective date of his order to active duty until he is relieved from that duty. (2) An officer of the Army National Guard of the United States or the Air National Guard of the United States is not relieved from duty in the National Guard of his State, or of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, Guam, or the Virgin Islands or the District of Columbia, under paragraph (1) while serving on active duty in command of a National Guard unit if— (A) the President authorizes such service in both duty statuses; and (B) the Governor of his State, or of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, Guam, or the Virgin Islands, or the commanding general of the District of Columbia National Guard, as the case may be, consents to such service in both duty statuses. (b) Return to State Status.— So far as practicable, members, organizations, and units of the Army National Guard of the United States or the Air National Guard of the United States ordered to active duty shall be returned to their National Guard status upon relief from that duty.
December 5, 200817 yr Somebody in Washington just got finished watching Red Dawn, and apparantley they really liked it.
December 5, 200817 yr Yes, Pat, give us your take. That way, RTS can formulate his opinion as the exact opposite of yours.
December 5, 200817 yr Like 99% of Americans, I am a) not sure what this really means; 2) don't understand much of what it means. (what HHSDad is posting.)
December 5, 200817 yr Like 99% of Americans, I am a) not sure what this really means; 2) don't understand much of what it means. (what HHSDad is posting.) Simply put, you can't use the U.S. military for law enforcement.
December 5, 200817 yr Simply put, you can't use the U.S. military for law enforcement. North Korea does it.....
December 5, 200817 yr Obviously, I was half-joking. Out of morbid curiousity, why does it matter to you? If I remember correctly, you have said on this site that no one else's posts could influence or change your ideas or beliefs. What's it matter what he thinks? (BTW, this got me thinking, so I started a new thread))
December 6, 200817 yr Simply put, you can't use the U.S. military for law enforcement. We do that now. When Falmouth was flooded in 1997, the National Guard came in and roamed the streets and enforced the curfew.

(BTW, this got me thinking, so I started a new thread))What does my asking him what he thinks of the issue have to do with changing or influencing my beliefs or ideas? I asked him because, even though I disagree with him politically, I have a lot of respect for Pat's opinion and enjoy reading his posts. He's a smart guy and he, with many others on here, really makes P&R an enjoyable forum IMO. I'm including you in that as well.
December 6, 200817 yr We do that now. When Falmouth was flooded in 1997, the National Guard came in and roamed the streets and enforced the curfew. The National Guard was working under state jurisdiction, not federal.
