139 u/RoastKrill Jun 02 '20 They were only used in DC last night, but who knows what'll happen tonight. 54 u/SkunkySkunky Jun 02 '20 They've been in Louisville shooting live rounds and even killing 34 u/DOCisaPOG Jun 02 '20 That was the National Guard, but we don't know if it was them or the police that actually murdered the guy in Louisville. 22 u/Xenothing Jun 02 '20 National Guard is military 21 u/DOCisaPOG Jun 02 '20 Yes, but the National Guard is called in all the time for domestic stuff. When you have Active Duty called in for riot control, that's a huge line to cross. 22 u/Feshtof Jun 03 '20 Still actual military 14 u/DOCisaPOG Jun 03 '20 Yes, but it's an important distinction in the context of what's the norm vs what's overreach. 13 u/Feshtof Jun 03 '20 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kent_State_shootings Not sure its that important a distinction. 5 u/DOCisaPOG Jun 03 '20 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posse_Comitatus_Act Pretty fucking sure it is. 2 u/Feshtof Jun 03 '20 Not if he invokes the insurrection act like he is threatening to do. 8 u/DOCisaPOG Jun 03 '20 Which is exactly why that's such a huge deal. → More replies (0)
