You've got to love how they list employment of armed responses against unarmed civilians. Interesting how a US Army publication advocates outright murder.

Whoa. I like Alex and I know he sounds conspiratorial but it makes perfect sense.

And then some! http://www.infowars.com/army-admits-plan...

Time to find a hiding place. Or some weapons that the cops don't know you have.

Bull's eye, brother.
One thing about the Gulchers, We certainly are a divers group.

WoW! . I'm in there with you -- I spent 33 years in
Oak Ridge building things for the military, while a
member of the usaf ... right there in the center
of the target. . Hi There, NSA! -- j

You do know George Washington called in the Army to deal with the Whiskey Rebellion?

This isn't new. Most of the people in Ferguson are pretty peaceful. A little (ok, a lot) misguided, but peaceful. But there's some agitators, and when agitators get in a bunch, they stir up trouble, and get some of those peaceful people to do stupid stuff.

I am an honorary Ojibway. I went through the ceremonial ritual including a sweat lodge, hallucinated and received my N.A. name. I guess if I ever need to hide out, I could travel back to Michigan, but at 80 years of age, the trip would probably kill me faster than whoever would be chasing me. Had the Dems gotten both houses and with all the stuff I've written in the past few years, I most likely would have been at top of the regime's list. At least, I'd like to think so.

I didn't read the whole thing. Is it trying to poke holes and exceptions into the rule against the Army performing domestic law enforcement? I strongly disagree with the military doing law enforcement. They need to keep a mindset of fighting an enemy, and police can't have that mindset and do a good job.

my wife is an ethnic difference -- she beats
Warren's 1/32 native american!!! -- j

It seems to me that this is just a review of long established regulations and procedures. The tone of the article seems reasonable as well.

Thanks. I needed a chuckle today.

They are here to help us all get along in spite of our shortcomings, just like the VIKI from "I, Robot".

The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the one, as long as the decision maker is the one.

Thanks Uncommon.

Rich, Be Advised: my Webroot Anti-malware prevented me from accessing the site due to malicious content. Just FYSA. (For Your Situational Awareness). Otherwise, very interesting subject and I wouldn't be surprised if they are doing just that in Da Ferg.

he might be attempting to defend ethnic differences! -- j

Well given the Pub Date and Obama's reluctance to declare a National Emergency, he took ten days with the Gulf Oil Spill, the Army National Guard will not have the Pub distributed yet. so, I doubt they will use it, but the old one was sever enough. Also the lack of a Federal Designation prevents use of the Active Army and Reserves (Posse Comitatus); further, for all its coverage, Ferguson was really small scale, never more than 4-5 thousand people in the street, including looters during the trouble, and fewer than 10k in the daytime marches, many of whom were outside agitators.

The cop is already in hiding. He even failed to show up to appear in court over some arrests he has made.
Oh, well, I predicted here when all this mess started is that the poor dude will have to find a way to disappear. There is no attacking black felon white shooter protection program.

Look up the Insurrection Act (passed in 1807 folks), and you'll see this shouldn't be a surprise. What is astonishing is that the only President who's ever used the executive powers available under this act was Lincoln. The military is only responding to its obligation to obey the orders of the civilian leadership when it plans for such an eventuality. People are often confused about how readily available such authoritarian power is to the American President, wailing about how the Posse Comitatus laws prevent such action. The P.C. laws only prohibit the military usurping the role of law enforcement in the absence of evidence of insurrection, but when the President declares such insurrection exists, all bets are off, and P.C. restrictions are meaningless.

That is possible but I think the concern is the protests. If news reports are correct no charges should be filed against the officer. It's a difficult spot to be in. If they do the right thing the town will erupt.

It's chilling that they are so open about this.

Thanks for the update. New dino thought: Did the Ferguson powers that be not want their verdict to in any way influence the outcome of the midterm elections?
Other inquiring minds may want to speculate. Others may say, "Shut up, you stupid lizard, you're off topic."
