The way I see it, the national guard being used on the border is not really a constitutional matter for the left. They don't care who is on the border they are only concerned that whoever is there might stop the flow of illegals and drugs coming in. The left just doesn't want the illegals to stop coming, why is that? If your home is invaded by roaches or mice you do anything you can to stop them from getting in and anything you can to remove or eradicate them why is it different for our nations home?
So you think that if another nation were to invade our country militarily we wouldn't be able to use or military to repel them from our own soil?
Depends. First time no, any more than once is a felony. The problem is they are illegals, illegal being the operative word here. Illegal Immigration is a Crime. Each year the Border Patrol apprehends hundreds of thousands of aliens who flagrantly violate our nation's laws by unlawfully crossing U.S. borders. Such illegal entry is a misdemeanor, and, if repeated after being deported, becomes punishable as a felony. https://www.fairus.org/issue/illegal-immigration/illegal-immigration-crime
immigration has to be proved. All foreign nationals in the US should have a federal id. It is a federal Obligation since 1808. Liberal socialists believe in capitalism and that a fee or fine can solve our dilemma, on a permanent basis. National socialists, don't.
National Guard troops at Mexican border may be armed, says top official The acknowledgement came moments after California said it would not be sending National Guard troops to the border. by Julia Ainsley / Apr.16.2018 / 2:29 PM ET
You stated that our army can't be used on our soil, I just showed an instance where they would have to be used on our soil. There is nothing to prevent them from being used in other instances as well.
I saw this morning on the news of National Guard troops on the border armed with M-16's. They didn't identify where along the border the video was taken or what state Guard unit it was. Why would Gov. "Moonbeam" Jerry Brown put California's Guardsmen in harms way unarmed ? Only really really really stupid civilians would be near the U.S./Mexican border not packing.
Never heard of inserting an empty ammunition magazine into a rifle before. Unless you were in a theater of combat or on the range the SOP was that each magazine be it a rifle or pistol magazine was loaded with 5 rounds. It doesn't make any sense but that's SOP. Ammunition magazines are to be treated as being loaded with live rounds at all times.
That all sounds good but I know for a fact when we were in Panama there were many days we had magazines and did not have rounds in them.
