18 U.S. Code § 1385 - Use of Army and Air Force as posse comitatus
“Whoever, except in cases and under circumstances expressly authorized by the Constitution or Act of Congress, willfully uses any part of the Army or the Air Force as a posse comitatus or otherwise to execute the laws shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than two years, or both.”
A lawyer could reasonably argue that this is training to violate the law, not an actual violation of the law. Obviously, the training serves a purpose, but technically they are not yet violating 18 U.S. Code § 1385.
Let them train with them. They’ll know what to expect and how to put them down when they arrive...
That was my confusion over the assertions in the article - training does not violate diddly over squat. If the military is used for actual policing, then we have an issue.
wouldn’t training to violate the law constitute a legal conspiracy to violate the law and therefore be actionable? Since conspiracy is an offense?
