You obviously didn't read the post right above yours that was made 20 minutes before your post.

There isn't a city in the country that's bluer or more democratic than The City.

You Dumbfuckistanians are so brainwashed that your're cum drunk on the Kool-Aid that you drink.

You believe everything that you're far right wing nut job news sources tell you about American cities.

If you Trumpers tried to pull the crap you did at the US Capitol here in The City. There would be no going to court. You'd be laid out permanently and we'd just have the street sweepers come by and clean up your carcasses.

SFPD made over 150 arrests last night for vandalism and acting like dipshits.

That shit won't be tolerated in The City.

RACK the SFPD.
Sure. OK. SFPD took care of business. Perhaps they could send some personnel down to LA to show them how it's done without the NG there to wipe their asses? I certainly wouldn't object. Or LA can burn...again. I'm struggling to find a loose fuck somewhere.

In 2020, Donald told G. Stephanopoulos that it is against the law for a president to call in the National Guard without it being requested by the state governor.

How many feds/cops/law enforcement/NG/Marines have to get hurt/killed before you TDS morons are happy? Drumpf’s people are enforcing existing laws. They aren’t making this shit up. Go to court and get an order requiring law enforcement to cease if he’s over his skis. Otherwise, 100% of the death and destruction is onya. Just sayin. It ain’t like the public opinion is being swayed in your favor by images of Mexican flag waving gang-bangers posing in masks on burning cars. No wonder you thought running Joetato was a good idea.

You get zero points for noticing that the metronome of stability is on both sides of the same line again.

To mobilize the National Guard troops this past weekend, Trump instead invoked Title 10, Section 12406 of the U.S. Code,
which allows for the federal deployment of National Guard forces in limited circumstances, including if “there is a rebellion
or danger of a rebellion against the authority of the Government of the United States.” The provision states that the
President may call the troops “in such numbers as he considers necessary to repel the invasion, suppress the rebellion, or
execute those laws.”

But that law also states: “Orders for these purposes shall be issued through the governors of the States or, in the case of the
District of Columbia, through the commanding general of the National Guard of the District of Columbia.”

It appears that what Donald said in 2020 is accurate.
Unless he invokes the Insurrection Act, he is not legally allowed to call in the National Guard.

They're close by at Pendleton. They were called in during the 92 riots

Except they're coming from Twentynine Palms shit for brains. Not Pendleton.

And this isn't anything close to the 1992 riots.

TACO can't help himself when it comes to breaking the law. He's done it once a week since he's become President.

Honestly, this looks like a normal day in the shithole of LA.

You're referring to the Posse Comitatus Act.

Something that 88 doesn't understand (or as evidenced earlier in this thread refuses to acknowledge).

Posse Comitatus has made it illegal for the military to be used in civilian law enforcement.
However, the Insurrection Act, if invoked, allows for the president to call on the military to handle an insurrection, or some other form of disruption that threatens the government.

To date, Donald has not invoked the Insurrection Act, but he has still sent in the National Guard, and now the Marines.
So, it appears to me that he has overstepped his authority.

That's a nice way of saying he is -----> breaking the law.

Dumpy is not upholding the constitution he has sworn to uphold.

It's a slippery slope, folks, and this can be extremely dangerous.

And it is dangerous for a president to have little dick syndrome, which this character clearly has.

Noem defends decision to not deploy National Guard during flooding

The Republican governor said she talked with local leaders, and ultimately decided local officials, contractors and state agencies were “best suited for the situation.” Fury’s statement also noted National Guard soldiers face limitations in these situations, like being unable to enter people’s homes or repair private property.

Trump Responds To Mostly Peaceful Protests With Mostly Peaceful Military

LOS ANGELES, CA — According to sources, President Trump responded to fiery but mostly peaceful protests in the City of Angels by activating the mostly peaceful National Guard.

"What we have are mostly peaceful migrants making their voices mostly peacefully heard by throwing Molotov cocktails and looting businesses," Newsom said. "All of which is protected by the Bill of Rights. Read the Constitution."

But the situation on the ground hadn't improved much as of Monday morning. Now, a battalion of 500 mostly peaceful Marines is reportedly on standby, preparing to enter California and retake the state from mostly peaceful arsonists and looters, joining the 2,000 mostly peaceful National Guard already deployed on the ground.

One potential problem with the "peaceful Marines" and "peaceful National Guardsmen" narrative is that it only takes one foolish or inflammatory action on the part of a protestor toward a Marine or Guardsman to provoke a response from a Marine or Guardsman that can escalate things very quickly.

So far, it appears law enforcement is being careful to single out the activists, outsiders, and instigators for arrest & removal from scene. Any activist that DOES act in a way that will harm a federal law enforcement officer (such as throwing rocks, shooting fireworks or other incendiary devices, etc.) at them should absolutely be arrested and charged with a federal crime.

As soon as the first vandalism occurred, police/Guard/marines/whatever should have moved in and cleared the streets completely…by any means necessary.

By not doing so, local officials encourage looting and violence.

It is an issue for the local mayor and governor, Sam.

If they want federal help, they must ask for it, or agree to it.

Dumpy sent the National Guard (and Marines) IN when the mayor and governor specifically said NOT to do that.

If tiny dick wants to do that, he is required by law to invoke the Insurrection Act, which he has not (yet) done.

That is my understanding of the law.
If someone can point out that I am wrong about that, please do so.

And the issue here is that Donald's actions may very well be inflaming the situation, rather than helping the situation.

I’ll be sure to bring my Green Card.
Get there early so you can take in and appreciate the expressions of cultural diversity


A handful of National Guard members are stationed in front of the Metropolitan Detention Center, long guns and wood sticks slung over their shoulders. Occasionally, a passing driver will honk at or heckle them, drawing no response.

News crews are stationed on the opposite side of the street, awaiting the possible arrival of the U.S. Marines. Otherwise, there are few signs of the tumult that has gripped the city in recent nights, aside from the graffiti scrawled across several buildings – “Abolish ICE,” “Amerikkka,” and obscene slogans including at the Walt Disney Concert Hall, where workers were busy washing away the graffiti on Tuesday morning.
