Local LE already has been taken over by the Feds.

Their polite request is redundant.

Yeah, that's what we need. A national police force in addition to TSA, FBI, NSA, all the departments with SWAT teams, CIA, BLM, all local police in "57" states, DEA, and more.

Are you crazy or just nuts?

The government tax system controls financial decisions.

The government heath system will control personal decisions.

A government controlled police force will complete the tyranny.

No. And here is my alternative proposal.

Grant the power to each ELECTED Sheriff to suspend the “Peace Officer” standing (meaning arrest authority and office protections) of any law enforcement officer within his county for misconduct. This includes Feds, police, deputies, game wardens, military personnel acting as LEOs, etc. This authority shall be limited in duration to last no longer than the next election and may be reviewed judicially.

Limit the formation and armament of SWAT teams to the direct control of the local Sheriff with the only exception being for federal facilities that are not open to the public.

Limit the use of no-knock warrants to only direct threat situation that involved the potential loss of life of the civilian population. Limit forced entry warrants to situations where there is no alternative (i.e arrest warrants after a traffic stop or at work, or shopping, etc). Require forced entry warrants to have a bond against damaged caused during the entry should the subject of the warrant not be found. Do not allow any evidence to be collected during a forced entry other than the warrant, to be admitted at trial. Require all other warrants to knock (wait up to 1 min to force entry if authorize), talk (identify and describe the reason for the search) and present (hand over a copy of the warrant).

Just in case they have not chosen a name for the National Police I would suggest one of the choices:
1.GESTAPO Nazi Germany
2.STASI East Germany
3.NVD Communist Russia
4.KGB Communist Russia
5.SS STORM TROOPERS Nazi Germany
6.SAVAK Iran
7.FSB Russia today
8.CSP Communist China

However, my favorite would be “BROWN SHIRTS.”

Mmmmm. Let’s mention that again if/when conservatives take the majority and hear what they have to say.

Obama’s got his civilian national security force right here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fruit_of_Islam

“In 1988 the Nation of Islam created a separate security agency using members of the Fruit of Islam. The agency received contracts primarily to patrol and staff public housing complexes in tough urban areas like Baltimore, Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, Chicago, and Los Angeles and received at least $20 million in the 1990s for security work. NOI Security had notable successes in Washington, D.C. projects particularly, but had difficulty in others and faced opposition by some members of Congress and the Anti-Defamation League, among others. It also faced scrutiny from federal agencies for racial and gender preference in hiring and from the IRS for failure to withhold taxes from employees.”

“The Fruit of Islam says its mission is to teach civilization, and teach what they know to those who do not know. A Nation of Islam website urging men to enroll in the FOI describes members as “brave fighter[s] for Allah” engaged in “a unique war for the very heart and soul of a people.” The site explains, “The responsibility of the F.O.I. is that of a head of house: protection, provision, and maintenance of the Nation of Islam (all Original People). The F.O.I. are militant in the sense that our operations are done as a unit.”

It seems that homeland security is poking their noses in quite a lot of normally local issues too. Also things that have nothing to do with their stated mission.

I like my Police Force just like it is.

If I put two in the chest and one in the head of some 40 point Buck trying to jack my car my local police are going to say "Good shooting" and pat me on the back. The DA will probably not even put it in front of a Grand Jury because he knows it would be No Billed in a second.

Thanks, but No Thanks.

PS - the chances of the above happening are slim to none because the 40 point Bucks know this is the likely outcome, also.

Their stated mission was to stop Islamic terrorism. However their emphasis has been keeping an eye on Republicans and conservatives and defining constitutional conservatives as potential terrorists. In the meantime they are encouraging real terrorists to come across our Southern Border.
