The Insurrection Act: Is it time?
[It’s at least time to go over it.]
10 U.S.C. §§ 331-335
Sec. 331. Federal aid for State governments
Whenever there is an insurrections in any State against its government, the President may, upon the request of its legislature or of its governor if the legislature cannot be
convened, call into Federal service such of the militia of the other States, in the number requested by that State, and use such of the armed forces, as he considers necessary to suppress the insurrection.
Sec. 332. Use of militia and armed forces to enforce Federal authority
Whenever the President considers that unlawful obstructions, combinations, or assemblages, or rebellion against the authority of the United States, make it impracticable to enforce the laws of the United States in any State by the ordinary course of judicial
proceedings, he may call into Federal service such of the militia of any State, and use such of the armed forces, as he considers necessary to enforce those laws or to suppress the rebellion.
Sec. 333. Interference with State and Federal law
The President, by using the militia or the armed forces, or both, or by any other means, shall take such measures as he considers necessary to suppress, in a State, any insurrection, domestic violence, unlawful combination, or conspiracy, if it—
(1) so hinders the execution of the laws of that State, and of the United States within the State, that any part or class of its people is deprived of a right, privilege, immunity, or protection named in the Constitution and secured by law, and the constituted authorities of that State are unable, fail, or refuse to protect that right, privilege, or immunity, or to give that protection; or
(2) opposes or obstructs the execution of the laws of the United States or impedes the course of justice under those laws.
In any situation covered by clause (1), the State shall be considered to have denied the equal protection of the laws secured by the Constitution.
Sec. 334. Proclamation to disperse
Whenever the President considers it necessary to use the militia or the armed forces under this chapter, he shall, by proclamation, immediately order the insurgents or those obstructing the enforcement of the laws to disperse and retire peaceably to their abodes within a limited time.

The first two themes of the Rondo were skipped.
I’m am reading reports in the Oakland Tribune that two security guards at the Federal Building were shot. Do the Feds employ outside contractors to provide security?
The media show themselves to be such idiots sometimes.
That idiot on MSNBC the other night said that the crowd was mostly peaceful and orderly in their protesting. He said how he saw a few buildings burning but except for that the crowd was not an unruly crowd.
And some other fools on MSNBC and CNN praise the diversity of the crowd who are protesting and rioting. There are many rioters who are not black according to these fools on TV.
Doesn’t that make us all feel more satisfied about the situation? The media can celebrate diversity of them their ranks of anarchists and arsonists. The media love to see diversity in criminal activity.
Who knew?
ACAB = All Cops Are Bastards
That dude better be careful he really needs a free hand to pull up his pants.
At least he’s concerned about the virus and wearing his mask.

warrants burning the country to the ground /s
he was trying to be “fair”
it made me sick, he is young, about 40 maybe
brainwashed from a youth to always apologize for being white for everything
That’s a great pic - a primitive smashing a machine he can’t comprehend. Like something from “The Gods Must Be Crazy”...
What does “ACAB” mean? (graffiti on car)
I read that they were Federal Protection Service officers. Ergo Federal LEOs.
The cops are too busy with Corona shutdown violators and businesses opening without the blessing of their governors.
“A pastor friend of mine told people on facebook that they should not complain about riots unless they add a disclaimer about the injustice of Floyd being killed in his arrest.”
Your pastor is a fool.
Another poster said it meant All Cops Are Bastards. I thought I saw a bit of a circle around the A, making it the anarchist symbol, which would make it an Anarchist Cab. Notice the nifty red balloon asterisk decoration.
The “all cops are bastards” thing is such a typical leftist inversion of truth. It’s the criminals that don’t know their Fathers dummies. Lol
On the Irony! Democrats burning down democrat cities.
