Experts: President Has Right to Send Military to Put Down Violent Demos

Despite protests from some governors, President Donald Trump has the legal authority to send active-duty military personnel to states to help put down violent demonstrations, law experts told The Washington Post on Tuesday.

Even though the Posse Comitatus Act forbids the domestic use of military for law enforcement purposes without specific congressional authorization, University of Texas Law School Prof. Stephen Vladeck said the Insurrection Act, gives the president the right to do so under certain circumstances, especially if state authorities are unable to give their residents the protection of law.


Although its modern use is rare, the Insurrection Act has been invoked as recently as 1992 during riots in California over the beating by Los Angeles policemen of unarmed motorist Rodney King, according to a Congressional Research Service report.

In that case, however, the state’s governor requested it.

Vladeck pointed out other instances in which the act was used, included during the 1950s, when President Dwight D. Eisenhower sent the Army into Little Rock to desegregate its schools.

Retired West Point law Prof. Gary Solis agreed that, even if state and local officials likely “would fight tooth and nail to keep federal troops out,” the Insurrection Act “does give the executive extraordinarily broad power to assemble federal troops to restore order in the various states.”

Experts: President Has Right to Send Military to Put Down Violent Demos


The leaders of the US military are well aware that during an election year, this President is more than capable of using them as pawns to provide him with any advantage that would result in his re-election!

The last thing the US military wants is to be seen removing peaceful protesters exercising their 1st Amendment Rights that they have swore to uphold, forever depicting them as the 2020 equivalent of the Chinese Peoples Liberation Army clearance of protesters from Tiananmen Square in 1989?

If the clearance of peaceful protesters exercising their 1st Amendment constitutional rights in Layette Park across from the White House was any example, the last thing even Republican governors want is this President's heavy handed use of military force to create yet another "photo-op" a their expense!

Many true democrats hope that will happen because it would be bound to go badly wrong. It might even change the out come of the coming election in their favour.

Although its modern use is rare, the Insurrection Act has been invoked as recently as 1992 during riots in California over the beating by Los Angeles policemen of unarmed motorist Rodney King

History repeating itself, eh?
What a pity that police recruitment, training, training reviews, management, supervision, trauma counselling and vigorous inner police investigations have not moved forward since then, eh?

: And let us hope that every terrorist looter gets his right between the eyes

Looters are thieves and vandals. You want to shoot them dead? Execution for theft?
Wow? You really do want to drop your land in to a fireball.

CCTV and witness accounts will convict nearly all the looters later on, but what is needed now is peace, understanding and communication.

Hate mongers need to be ignored, let's hope that they will be.

1) The current protests in virtually every city in America are based on the fact that "black" citizens feel they have been "oppressed" for over 400 years and under this President the gap between them and "whites" has actually widened!

2) Protesters are not "extremist terrorists" - protests during the day have been remarkably peaceful, its the opportunists, looters and extremist elements that tend to come out at night that are the problem!

"..... the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."

3) The constitutional right of citizens to protest against their government is guaranteed under the 1st Amendment which this President, his Administration and members of the US military have all sworn to uphold!

4) "In America, there are extremist terrorists burning down American cities and killing cops" - provide the names and locations where these "cops" were killed!

... this President ...

MY President

... his re-election ...

... is virtually guaranteed by the Democrats inexplicable decision to choose as their candidate a man with senile dementia and accusations of rape and child molestation swirling around him

MY President

Yes, and the legal duly elected president of the United States, who the perverts on the Left tried to throw out of office with evil lies and hate and a fake impeachment.

... is virtually guaranteed by the Democrats inexplicable decision to choose as their candidate a man with senile dementia and accusations of rape and child molestation swirling around him

The riots will once again show that evil extremists are on the Left. They will move more into the suburbs, buy guns, and vote Republican.

[h=1]Marc Thiessen: 'No reason' Trump can't lawfully use military to quell an 'insurrection'[/h] https://www.foxnews.com/media/marc-thiessen-trump-lawfully-use-military-insurrection

“This is a law that’s been used by Presidents Thomas Jefferson, Rutherford Hayes, Grover Cleveland, Woodrow Wilson, Franklin Roosevelt, Dwight Eisenhower, Lyndon Johnson,” Thiessen said.

“In 1992 George H.W. Bush used it during the Los Angeles riots over the Rodney King beating,” he continued.

“President John F. Kennedy used the law twice, in 1962 at the University of Mississippi when James Meredith was becoming the first African-American to attend there, segregationists rioted and so he invoked the Insurrection Act.”

Thiessen noted that “Kennedy used it to crack down on segregationists who were blocking the integration of Alabama schools.”

He went on to point out that the looting, shootings and arson that have been taking place across the country constitute an insurrection.

“If a city or state refuses to take the actions that are necessary to defend the life and property of their residents, then I will deploy the United States military and quickly solve the problem for them,” Trump said during a Rose Garden address as cities across the country grappled with property destruction, looting and violent police clashes in the week since the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis.

Legal experts say the president does indeed have the authority under the Insurrection Act of 1807 to dispatch the military in states that are unable to put down an insurrection or are defying federal law.

In the last half-century, presidents have sent the military to Southern states to ensure desegregation of schools and to protect civil rights in the 1950s and 1960s, and to Los Angeles after the California governor sought federal help during the 1992 riots.
