Default A Message from Cindy Sheehan

This is why jurisdictional cosiderations are a paramount before troops can be deployed within the U.S. by executive fiat. If jurisdictional considerations are not taken into account you'll get more than the extremists making claims such as:

One thing that truly troubled me about my visit to Louisiana was the level of the military presence there. I imagined before that if the military had to be used in a CONUS (Continental US) operations that they would be there to help the citizens: Clothe them, feed them, shelter them, and protect them. But what I saw was a city that is occupied. I saw soldiers walking around in patrols of 7 with their weapons slung on their backs. I wanted to ask one of them what it would take for one of them to shoot me. Sand bags were removed from private property to make machine gun nests.
