Why do we need a civilian national force as strong as the military? And who do you think will be in it?
TK421: I don't think we need one, Obama and his crowd are the ones who are advocating one. Just think about it.
Phil M: Are you really saying that having military bases throughout the world isn't in our best interests as a nation and people? Are you a liberal?
If so, I would expect you to understand that we need to enforce peace where we can and to help those who want and need it. Where's your 'bleeding heart' for the opressed?

The left gets all bent out of shape if anyone compares Obama or his policies to Hitler... but I cannot help but think of Hitler's Gestapo when I hear about plans for this civilian police force. This scares me more than anything else Obama has done or plans to do.

The people in it will be our neighbors, friends and relatives.
Who do you think did the dirty work in Nazi Germany? It was people's neighbors, friends and relatives.
This is scary, scary stuff.
Do you think your neighbors, friends and relatives would do anything they were ordered to do, no matter how disgusting or evil?
I'll bet the Germans didn't think so, either.
God help us.
Excellent question.
Edit: a "domestic military" is illegal. The military is NOT supposed to be turned against the populace. We have police, we have national guard, we have militia. Who is the enemy that a civilian security force would be turned against? Wake up, people. YOU are the enemy.

because the military industrial complex has seen to it that our military act like a world-wide police force rather than a domestic military as it was supposed to have been. Having military bases throughout the world isn't what our nation was founded on nor is it in our best interests as a nation and people.

Awesome...question
Lets see...take over the banks and mortgage companies.
Take over the unions and auto industry.
Take over and silence freedom of speech on radio and television.
Take over health care and health care givers.
All you need to do now is provide yourself an army.
We have seen this pattern before in the 1930's in Germany.

Probably those S E I U thugs. Now that Obama "sneakily" hired a union head to be another union 'czar'. (that his "fawning" media failed to cover.)
Or maybe the "brown shirts" Pelosi mentioned who were at the town hall meetings.

To enforce happy fascist ideas like mandatory recycling and energy conservation. Who will be in it? Probably all of our children will be required to "volunteer."
Oh, nothing against recycling or energy conservation. But these "good" endeavors will lead to other less friendly enforcements.

We don't need it. It will be composed of street thugs. We are the next Haiti. Impeach Obama now!

This is reframing an old debate. WE HAVE ONE. Read the federalist papers. It is the reason for the 2nd Amendment. Research the unorganized militia which every citizen is apart of.

No America that loves our Country.
It will be them and us.
It is not looking to friendly out there is it.
