Re: Military to be used as city police force! It starts now!
I'm pretty sure if we can get through an Oklahoma vs Texas game without military police then they should be able to for this game as well. Is the Georga vs SC game usually that bad that they can use it as an excuse?

Re: Military to be used as city police force! It starts now!
In So Calif, the main stream news showed today that marines were beaching one of their hoover crafts loaded with marines for an "earthquake" drill.

I saw on yahoo news that the US navy's newest battleship is in new york habor from some special event.

In Ca, www.ready.gov has been playing TV commercials urging Dad's to be a hero by preparing the family for a natural disaster. Seems like if you were prepared for a natural disaster, you would also be prepared for civil unrest.

Sure hope this is a whole bunch of nothing.

The city’s police department soon will be looking for a few good men and women to add to the force.

The one requirement: They must have served in the United States military at some point since 2001.


(since THE WAR began...)

Probably because most states are broke and some communities rely on volunteers to act as police officers.
Military in the streets is unconstitutional but I heard on other sites that when asked if they, the soldiers would fire on civilians if ordered, a lot of them answered yes.

meh, just daily routine nowadays.

Most citizens welcome it, as well as foreign troops training in "counter-terrorism" drills.

Also, a hint to the uninformed:

Posse Comitatus Act

The Posse Comitatus Act is the United States federal law (18 U.S.C. § 1385, original at 20 Stat. 152) that was passed on June 18, 1878, after the end of Reconstruction. Its intent (in concert with the Insurrection Act of 1807) was to limit the powers of local governments and law enforcement agencies in using federal military personnel to enforce the laws of the land. Contrary to popular belief, the Act does not prohibit members of the Army from exercising state law enforcement, police, or peace officer powers that maintain "law and order"; it simply requires that any authority to do so must exist with the United States Constitution or Act of Congress.[citation needed]

????

somebody should help wikipedia update that there.
that seems like a pretty huge thing to declare with no citation at all.

the law should be clear.

Their going to need more than some 18 or 19 year old Army MP's to handle that rambunctious crowd. They might be okay with Marines or some SEALs, but Army will be running for the hills when they see the insanity going on in the Vista and Five Points.

I have been to many a crowded USC game and they have a tendency to get a little carried away, especially at a 7pm game (late game=longer time to get wasted). With 40 or 50 thousand crazed college co-eds passing around all sorts of drugs and booze for 10 to 12 hours before the game even starts, this could put the weekend of the zombies in Miami to shame.

I just hope Columbia is still standing after this game, could be another Sherman's March. If you have a family weekend planned for Columbia, SC that weekend, steer clear and thank the MP's for even giving a shit.



This was a basketball game which has a fraction of the attendance of a football game and is confined to a B-ball court. They're going to be doing this all over the town until the sun comes up. If you are a DUI lawyer, this is the weekend that pays for the summer home and the Porsche 911.

Go Cocks!

They better get the National Guard on stand-by.



It's about to get rowdy down here! Look for Columbia, SC to be on the Richter scale this weekend. Don't worry it's not Nibiru GLP'ers, it's the sound of a Dawg getting beaten by a Cock.
