rof This is an example of militia duty.
Behold, someone mistaking a trolling for actual reasoned political opinion, applying it to his enemies and demonizing swaths of 'others'. One must nearly wonder if y'all are in cahoots.
We should hire the Hell's Angels to do it :lamo
Seriously though, there are a lot of biker groups that would probably be willing to become involved somehow. Despite the stereotype of them being thugs, you could trust them to protect your kids with their lives.
One would be an idiot if one did.
You are speaking with a member of the National Guard, so let me educate you:By legal statute the National Guard constitutes the "well-regulated militia" today.
Each and every single US citizen between 17 and 45 is a member of the unorganized militia.USC › Title 10 › Subtitle A › Part I › Chapter 13 › § 311
(a) The militia of the United States consists of all able-bodied males at least 17 years of age and, except as provided in section 313 of title 32, under 45 years of age who are, or who have made a declaration of intention to become, citizens of the United States and of female citizens of the United States who are members of the National Guard.
(b) The classes of the militia are—
(1) the organized militia, which consists of the National Guard and the Naval Militia; and
(2) the unorganized militia, which consists of the members of the militia who are not members of the National Guard or the Naval Militia.
I don't think so. Partisan hackery is virtually dependent on opposing trolling. When indefensible trolling meets hard-nosed political hate, it's kinda like the sht hitting the fan. The sht needs the fan, the fan needs the sht, otherwise... will anyone notice either? In this way, inflamatory blurts and sht splattering partisan power belchs will always be together and, truly, are in cosmic cahoots.
I never thought of that. Maybe you are on to something.
unorganized militia.
You've just defeated your own point. The "organized" militia - the National Guard - has the proper legal purview to oversee something like this (not that that's a good idea, either). The "unorganized" militia is nothing more than the great masses of average citizens who possess firearms and who can be called upon to defend their homes in the event of an invasion.
That's it.
The "unorganized militia" has no more right to police schools than do street gangs. They certainly ought not be drafted into some ass-backwards idea to police schools that are basically under no threat of violence (how many schools, of the thousands in the nation, have ever seen a shooting? What fraction of one percent?).
The Posse Comitatus Act aside, you're saying a sheriff has no authority to form a posse. This sheriff has the authority for form a posse. Yes, the NG is one way this could be delt with, but the NG requires an order from the Governor, and the Governor can only issue that order for specific emergencies, and then only for a pre-stated amount of time. Even with an order, the NG cannot be used in a general way for an indefinite period of time. "Guard the schools against crime until told otherwise" is illegal. You would have to have a sudden spree of school shootings in order to activate the NG, and even then our orders have an expiration date.The "organized" militia - the National Guard - has the proper legal purview to oversee something like this...
A Sheriff deputizes the members of the posse when the posse is formed, it's quite legal. The purpose of the 2A, then, is for deputized citizens reporting as members of the posse can bring their own weapons suitable for the job.The "unorganized militia" has no more right to police schools than do street gangs.
You're saying that we don't have the right to protect our kids?
The Posse Comitatus Act aside, you're saying a sheriff has no authority to form a posse.
Arpaio is, without a doubt, the biggest attention whore presently holding elected office in the United States.
What makes you think a deputized posse will act this way? You assume the Sheriff has no application process? You think a Sheriff isn't first placing his own Police in his considerations? You think a Sharif isn't running background checks, looking for military/police/security experience?And how long until one of these guys shoots a kid? Angry, authoritative, armed men in large groups, without proper accountability or supervision. Oh yeah, that's gonna go great...
If pro-illegals and other pro-criminal scum didn't file phoney lawsuits and try to demonize the man then no one would know who he is. In otherwords he got attention because you people shined the spotlite on him and it backfired on you people.So now he is known as America's toughest sheffif and the people of his country continue to elect him.
What makes you think a deputized posse will act this way?
I absolutely love it. Know what I like best? It's all-volunteer. It's never too late to take the power back.
Of all the people I know, only one is an ex-felon for possession of drugs from an era when his crimes were felonies and today would have been misdemeanors.
Nobody in my network is more honest, more reliable, more loyal, more generous or more likely to take a bullet to protect others. Yet he is condemned for life to be derided as a criminal.
As a group, many of us are old gits. We're neither stupid nor senile. You'd be lucky to have us as friends and lucky to have us protecting your children.
And how long until one of these guys shoots a kid? Angry, authoritative, armed men in large groups, without proper accountability or supervision. Oh yeah, that's gonna go great...
I never said it did.Posse Comitatus has nothing to do with a sheriff's posse.
Good job, you stated the painfully obvious the rest of us already knew, you're just about caught up with the discussion.It regulates the ability of the Armed Forces to serve as police on American soil.
Yup, posses operate within limits, just like every other authority.And virtually all jurisdictions place limits on the ability of the local sheriff to deputize civilians to emergency situations.
Arpaio bought a tank.
To use in drug busts.
No, he's basically an attention whore
What better way to rehabilitate a criminal who's paid their debt to society then to get them involved with positive civil service?Not only do a lot of these Sheriff Joke brown shirt wannabe's qualify as senile old gits, they are also criminals...
Arpaio wants his army of 3,000 volunteer posse members to look like sworn deputies and sometimes perform the same duties. But an in-depth project by CBS 5 Investigates uncovered a number of posse members with arrests for assault, drug possession, domestic violence, sex crimes against children, disorderly conduct, impersonating an officer - and the list goes on.
Yup, posses operate within limits, just like every other authority.
In other news, the sky is blue.
What better way to rehabilitate a criminal who's paid their debt to society then to get them involved with positive civil service?
Or were you assuming that criminals don't already drop their children off at your child's school?
What makes you so trusting as to disbelieve that all sorts of undesirables will take advantage of this?
Hell, if I wanted to commit a school shooting, I'd 'volunteer' my services just to have a reason to be there with a gun.
