What happens if Trump deploys the military on the streets?

Your uninformed musings loudly advertise that you know few outside your sanctimonious bubble.

Yes, it's legal.
Yes the Generals would comply.
Minimum Force Necessary or Deadly Force as a Last Resort

The rest of your free-form emanations are too ill-formed for a reasoned response.

 

Ah, I don't communicate with the dark side. I leave that to the corrupt losers desperate to feel something if only rage and pain.

 

Surely that has happened many times before? After 9/11? FDR against the veteran's protest? Nixon protecting the Whitehouse?

 

Doubt that...the terrorist would run back into their holes...er parents basements.

 

If the National Guard is protect citizens........why were they sent overseas?

 

Once the rioters destroy their food and perhaps in some cites destroy their electricity then what? Anarchy may be fun for a few days for some, but long term it will not be fun.

 

To protect the citizens

 

The cop was arrested, what more do you want? From what I've seen, blacks are attacking white people all over the country and for what? Hate? Racism? Free TV sets?

Do you really believe what's happening today is going to cause people to have sympathy for blacks? I'll tell you what, watching blacks nationwide riot, loot, burn things to the ground, pull white people out of cars and beat them and burning/destroying historic buildings might be entertaining for you, but I'm starting to believe there's a reason why blacks are where they are today, just turn on a TV and watch them do their thing and that light bulb over your head just might light up. .

 

Liberals should consider the oath taken by the military defend against all enemies foreign AND DOMESTIC.

 

If he does it, we can never again criticize totalitarian regimes for putting down civil unrest with military force, as we have in the past and we are currently criticizing China for their actions in relation to Hong Kong.

 

Small hands need small sticks.

 

Since the school supply aisles were untouched apparently these weren't a grab one get three free items.

 

I say just ok the citizens to protect their own stuff. Remove all the gun restrictions in Gun Free zones and have at it.

Matter of fact, charges should not be brought up against anyone for shooting a looter.

 

Abe Lincoln put down civil unrest with the military.

 

Only for the dim witted who can’t differentiate between Jack-the Ripper and Christiaan Barnard because both used scalpels. Are you a victim of public education?

 

Big time.

 

Following tens of thousands of calls for the limp dick governor of MN to resign, he obviously got to word from someone and deployed hundreds of National Guard to back up the other branches of MN law enforcement, the police started getting tough and tear gas, marker rounds, and rubber bullets were put to use. The areas were cleared and the rats scattered like cockroaches. The following day was relatively peaceful thanks to the night before and well armed citizens at the door protecting their own business.

 

Those groups don’t go by “Nazi” or “KKK” and there is far too many of them to name here. No the right doesn’t disown them. In fact, they threw a fit when they were identified by the Fed and an attempt was made to coordinate with state law enforcement to get a handle on them.

Gangs are gangs and we need to get a handle on them.

 

Another keyboard lost to spewed coffee.

These clowns are cowards and take a pass on any show of force be it police or private. Proven many times on Friday Night in Minneapolis.
By accident, I have lived in a toney suburb of Minneapolis that was once rich with republicans that built their business from the ground up. Now, their kids have taken over and it becomes why work so hard? The area has turned very liberal but following the threats from the organized owners, they are asking around, where can I get a gun and who will train me? Fear is a great motivator.
My son lives in a gated community in No. Dallas. He called on his way home as there was word that looters were targeting homes in areas where he lives. He only has a revolver I gave him years ago and little training. I told him to spread the word and gather the neighbors that were hunters. The now are organizing and a neighborhood watch group will be started.
Suffice to say on his next trip up here he will return far better equipped than he is currently.

 

As to the thread, it’s posturing. There isn’t an insurrection. It’s Little Dick Syndrome.

 

huh? We have done it here in the past. the issue isn't using the military to aid in putting down civil unrest, it's how it's used We don't have our miltitary shooting people like the Chinese, Cuba and other left wing regimes.

The law was put into place in 1807...some more recent examples of using it was in 1989 after Hurricane Hugo, in 92 in the wake of the LA Riots, Eisenhower and Kennedy both used it to enforce desegregation,

 

What are you talking about? The right has been fighting against the KKK since it was founded by the Dems.

 

Don't fret, I hear that condition is correctable.
The military on the street is just a backup for local and state LE and if you are lucky enough to live in a state with a governor, mayor, police chief with a spine, make as many arrests as necessary.

 

JFK enforced desegregation with them.

 

The people in Hong Kong are fighting for freedom, the rioters in the US are looting branches of Target?
