The plan is for the feds to run all police eventually.
A real Fed.gov power-grab if ever there was one
By what authority?
“We cannot continue to rely on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we’ve set. We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.” Barack Hussein Obama, 7/2/2008They don’t call it a Civil Defense force, that would imply we need (or perhaps that we deserve) defense. The official name is National Civilian Community Corps.
I think of it as the NatCCC, or more simply, as the NatCs...
He’ll install Al Sharpton as the new Chief of Police.
Executive vs. legislative vs. judicial vs. state vs. citizens. Let’s abandon all checks and let King Hussein and his court lord over us. Adios, republic.
What was the wording of the emails? Let us judge for ourselves. Beyond that, this is the opening gambit to establish a civilian national police force that will rival the military, as promised by Obama
I am unaware that the federal govt has any such powers to destruct a local town’s pd.
but if it does, those powers need to be repealed ASAP!
this is a stellar examplar of just how dangerous such powers would be in the hands of transformational or dictatorially-inclined miscreants in federal offices
I’m going to use my personal authority to dissolve the attorney general’s office. I’ll let you know how I make out with that.
Let the Blacks run Ferguson. They can join all the other successfully run Black cities.
Ping.
I might be way out of line here, but I think it’s time to bear arms against the (federal) government.
Except there isn't any "appalling racial misconduct by law enforcement" and only a stick stirring black racist could see it that way.
I predict MO Democrats get completely wiped out in 2016, and the new Governor/Legislature tell the Feds to pound sand.
Noting that the only race-based issue that the states have delegated to the feds the specific constitutional power to regulate is voting rights, such protection evidenced by the 15th Amendment, Holder has no constitutional authority to do anything to any local police department imo. So maybe Holder’s payoff is winning votes for Democrats from low-information voters who don’t understand the federal government’s constitutionally limited powers.
Since when does the Justice Department have the authority to shut down a municipal police department?
His invading troops should be met by the National Guard.
The federal government has no power to do this. If it thinks it does, it is wrong. If there is a law saying it can do this, it is unconstitutional.
It seems the Federal government is about to start CW2.
Holder, Al Sharpton, Jessie, and their pals are the racists.
This delusional power-hungry fool is truly out of hand.
Has there ever been an Attorney General in U.S. history as corrupt, transparently racist and unabashed as this one? If the answer is "yes," how much damage did he achieve? And how did the sane citizens of the U.S. "deal" with it?
