Re: Mexico to sue USA for closing border

PW2,<br /><br />I am with you on this. Lets take full advantage of Posse Commitatis. We got those citizens on the boarder, they should arm themselves and take full advantage of the law and repel invaders. Perhaps some 50 cals in the hands of some anxious citizens should provide great results. <br /><br />The minutemen shootin cans. I think the guard is a better idea..<br /><br />JB, if I was Mexico I would sue in California so all appeals could reach the 9th curcuit court. Laws mean little to those legal eagles. Just dispensing a little liberal justice from the bench.

That would be true PW. We have a National Guard, and a State Guard. If the individual states used the State Guard we would be legal. The JBT (use your imagination) used that defense in Waco when they sent the tanks into the Davidian compound and it failed the "smell" test but passed the legal standing in court.

The NG idea is crappy and all those under 35 who disagree should be required to sign up. The guard is needed by us in cases of emergency. If we need more border patrol then hire more border patrol the guys and gals in the guard have been abused enough with Iraq etc.

PW2, TXS,<br /><br />"Posse" has nothing to do with this. Beside what the media says.<br /><br />"Posse" was designed to NOT allow the military to engage against US Citizens or engage in "Police" activities. Look it up.<br /><br />The fence climbers/border crossers are NOT US citizens, nor is this a police action. It's called; "Security".

Nowhere did I suggest that we don't have the right to protect our borders. I simply said we need to do it legally, if we want to avoid the potential of a lawsuit.

I see the good folks that make up the Guard being put into a bad situation. The Kent State "event" as you call it, is the basis for my concern.

quote: There is a concept (in the constitution?) called posse comittatus (sp?) where basically it prohibits the military from being used as domestic law enforcement. It is desinged to keep some rogue politician from using the military to overwhelm the citizenry.<br /><br />The guard won't be acting as domestic law enforcement... think about it.

They are helping our country from a invasion. Its a little to late but it can't hurt. I think we can slow it down. Way down I hope I'll bet it will be a lot harder to get though when they get settled down. Look what it is going co$t, Look what it cost if they get over here. Like I said above something should have done years ago. <br />Tim

Until we figure out how to stop the hiring of illegals, everything else is a joke.<br /><br />They come here for the money, and employers hire them because they're cheap. <br /><br />They will keep coming, no matter what, as long as the above remains true.

Re: Mexico to sue USA for closing border

Politicians are in bed with big business.Nothing new there.The fact that these businesses have been using illegals for many years is nothing new nor a big surprise to our goverment either.What I don't get is some of the remarks from some of the news networks guests,as to the high percentage of "illegals" that are paying in to our tax system.What paper trail could verify that an illegal is paying in his/her fair share of income tax???Seems the cheap labor rates is not the only way that big business is profiting from hiring illegals.This entire scenario is just dividing the country more so that it already is.Plain pathetic.
