Posse Comitatus = the difference between Banana Republics and the USA.

If a cell of militants did something in a city the military can certainly be deputized to attack these illegal combatants (who are not civillians but enemy soldiers invading our lands).

However I see no need to eliminate Posse Comitatus. Just because jihadis attack us why must extreme measure be taken against citizens.

Perhaps govt officals know that have not the will to close the illegal alien loophole because of political correctness. So they will try to keep safety by placing harsh measures on the citizens, which seem for the those same govt officals more palatable than securing the borders.

I agree. We need to be very vocal about not changing this law!
