Gen Honore: If Riots Don't Stop, May Have to Invoke the Insurrection Act | |
2014-11-26 | |
Tuesday on CNN, retired lieutenant general and the commander of Joint Task Force Katrina Gen. Russel L. Honore said if the riots in Missouri cant be controlled the next step is "the Insurrection Act."
It takes a lot of patience he on the police part to understand that civil disobedience by it self is to force the police to take actions. So the people stand in the street, and if it can be done in a safe way, sometimes it's best to observe that as long as it doesn't go violent. More often than not, many times the police will want to move them out of the street because I said so . And that is when the pushing and shoving starts, and that's when they go violent and when they put people in jail. Or people actually do criminal acts like throw things at the police. You throw something at the police, you're going to go to jail. I think police are in the city unlike Ferguson and St. Louis that have mobilized National Guard and backup troops, they're dealing with shift officers who are probably working overtime. | |

#10 Beso, you are so right. When this A$$hole was elected in 2008 I gave my wife of 10 things that I expected to go wrong. Unbeknownst to me she wrote them down and saved them. She told me right after the mid-terms that she had done that to show me after 2016. Now that 7 of them have come to pass she let me know.......I thank the 'burg for making me look smart. |

#9 Reference #4: that's why the Bolsheviks, very quickly, created the Red Army. They weren't about to trust the old army. |

#6 But the idea of suspending the rule of law under the guise of some calamity or urban unrest is part of the game plan. Why do you think he has been assembling a private army in DHS and other normally unarmed agencies? And why do you think he has been so willing to create so much unrest and havoc with our economy? Seems to be searching for a hot button that will set off a major armed conflagration somewhere as an excuse. |

#5 Reference #3. I would hate to have to construct a list of events that were predicted here, which have actually came about. |

#3 Gee, just think what Obola could do with the Insurrection Act. Marshal law would allow him "at least in his mind" to suspend all of the Constitution, send Congress home and rule by decree. He'd quote Lincoln and suspend Habeas Corpus and round up the Tea Party, Republicans and all of Fox News. Nirvana. |

#1 The police could easily control the situation if they were permitted to do so. If the troublemakers had to pick a little #6 shot out of their arses, the BS would soon stop. The concept of a "Blue Ribbon Panel" is pure rubbish. Enforce the laws currently on the books, no interruptions, no exceptions. |
