Pentagon draws up rules on possible use of force by Marines deployed to LA protests

Jump

  • Here is a video from 11 years ago of training by the U.S. Marines 2nd Battalion, 1st Marines in Non-Lethal Riot Control

    • LA protests live updates: Marines will be deployed in response to immigration protests

  • Coming soon to a city near you.

    • The White House claims California residents are in a state "of rebellion against the authority of the Government of the United States."

    Jump

  • I mean, I could believe that if they were just on his gear or with him, but he has them in his hand, ready to use to take hostages/kidnap people. I am genuinely curious as to what his intentions were for the hostages he was planning to take.

    • FBI adds LA protester to its ‘Most Wanted’ list for damaging government vehicles

    Jump

  • Yup. He required emergency surgery and is still in the hospital

    • For Trump, This Is a Dress Rehearsal | Ordering the National Guard to deploy in Los Angeles is a warning of what to expect when his hold on power is threatened.

    Jump

  • Yup, but that line was crossed when he federalized National Guard troops for domestic policing. Federalized National Guard troops are legally the same as active duty military, both are title 10 troops and are restricted in their domestic use to the same degree. There is legally no difference between federalized National Guard and any active duty military, including tier one special forces as far as posse comitatus. This is a flagrant and illegal abuse of emergency powers.

  • Holly shit. I hadn't seen that last image you posted before. I didn't realize the Jan 6 insurrectionist brought flexcuffs. That is quite disturbing. Who the fuck were they planing to kidnap or take hostage with those flexcuffs?

    Jump

  • Nope, but using active military is no different than federalized National Guard. Both are title 10 troops and the use of either is the same under under Posse Comitatus. This is already Martial Law.

  • Couldn't it also be done as civil asset forfeiture?

  • Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said in a post on X that the Defense Department is "mobilizing the National Guard IMMEDIATELY to support federal law enforcement in Los Angeles. And, if violence continues, active duty Marines at Camp Pendleton will also be mobilized — they are on high alert." ~ABC News

    They are already threatening to send in Marines...

  • States giving up their military power was a mistake. States need to rebuild and restore their State Guards/State Defense Forces. The ability to federalize the National Guard removes its ability to function as the State Militias that it replaced.

  • Just Nationalizing his companies without compensation would do it. Most of musk's wealth is in his companies and he just takes out loans using shares as collateral.

  • That sounds nice. Where I was at the time was close enough to a baptist church that I couldn't escape their speakers blaring doomsday baptist sermons and gospel music. All day. Every day. For the entire time that churches weren't allowed to meet inside.

  • Well, for me personally, all they would need to do is run my finger prints as my prints have been in the system since I was in highschool for employment background checks.

    However, that would assume that the thugs were competent and acting in good faith, which they are not.
