Bill I agree with you guest, on the segment about the military joining the hunt for the DC shooter. Why do they really need the militaries help? Is because all the agencies involved to this point are inept? Come on doesn't the BATF, FBI, Secret Service, any of the local PD, have equipment to solve this crime? For many years now the Federal and local governments have systematically disarmed the population, under the false pretence that they could protect its populations. The further we are disarmed the higher the violent crime rate goes.
With the act of the military getting involved, A dangerous president has been set. And if it is allowed to continue, in the future some will say there is no need for a police force. Just use the military to find the criminal and have an arrest agent pick them up. The military does not abide by the rules civilian police must. The can search and seizes without warrant. For example the U.S is now holding many suspected terrorist with out a hearing or bail. Everything has been conducted in secret. If this investigation is run as a military operation, eventually every firearm owner will be picked up and held without due possesses, until the guilty party can be discerned from the innocent. That is un-American. And reeks of a totalitarian state. I for one am opposed to the use of the military in any civilian crime investigation.
If the investigating parties need help they only need look to its freedom loving people. Let them arm themselves and patrol their neighborhoods.
