So we're planning on using military "assets" in local jurisdictions now?
What the hell happened to smaller government?
quote:
Sec. 4. Using National Security Assets for Law and Order. (a) Within 90 days of the date of this order, the Attorney General and the Secretary of Defense, in consultation with the Secretary of Homeland Security and the heads of agencies as appropriate, shall increase the provision of excess military and national security assets in local jurisdictions to assist State and local law enforcement.
(b) Within 90 days of the date of this order, the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with the Attorney General, shall determine how military and national security assets, training, non-lethal capabilities, and personnel can most effectively be utilized to prevent crime.

Governor's have always been able to ask for Federal military assistance. Remember Katrina?

Seems like it's more geared toward providing training more than actual deployment of troops, etc.
Plus there's this:
I'm guessing this means that it will comply with the Posse Comitatus Act.
Plus there's this:
quote:
Sec. 7. General Provisions. (a) Nothing in this order shall be construed to impair or otherwise affect:
i. the authority granted by law to an executive department or agency, or the head thereof; or
ii. the functions of the Director of the Office of Management and Budget relating to budgetary, administrative, or legislative proposals.
(b) This order shall be implemented consistent with applicable law and subject to the availability of appropriations.
(c) This order is not intended to, and does not, create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law or in equity by any party against the United States, its departments, agencies, or entities, its officers, employees, or agents, or any other person.
(d) The Department of Justice shall provide funding for this order’s publication in the Federal Register.
I'm guessing this means that it will comply with the Posse Comitatus Act.

If the troops are available, use them. Crime has become rampant in this country. Something needs to be done or we're headed to a Kurt Russell escaping from New York scenario.
