Martial Law Attempt In Louisiana Echoes Ron Paul's Warning 4/4

Following the fatal shooting of a toddler in a crime ridden New Orleans housing project, a Louisiana state representative has called for what amounts to martial law.


Austin Badon contacted Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal's office Monday and asked that the National Guard be deployed. Jindal's office said Badon was told that any such a request would have to come from the New Orleans mayor Mitch Landrieu.

Under Article I, Section 8, Clause 15 of the Constitution, the National Guard -- considered a state militia -- is authorized to "execute the laws of the Union and suppress Insurrections and repel Invasion." The Constitution says nothing about dispatching the military to fight domestic crime, a task usually undertaken by local law enforcement.

Since the National Defense Act (or Militia Act) of 1903, the federal government has worked to absorb the National Guard and take control of it away from the states. In 2007, the John Warner Defense Authorization Act moved to remove state governors as sole commanders in chief of their state's National Guard during emergencies within the state.

On December 18, presidential candidate Ron Paul warned (see video below) that the 2012 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) passed recently by the House and now under consideration in the Senate will be used by the government to implement martial law. The bill would allow the military to detain Americans and prevent them from exercising their right to due process under the Sixth Amendment.

Deploying federally controlled troops in post-Katrina New Orleans is another attempt to circumvent Posse Comitatus and acclimate citizens to the presence of armed troops on the streets.

In August of 2005, New Orleans served as a beta test for FEMA command and control over state and local jurisdiction and autonomy. It was also used for gun confiscation. FEMA, as we have documented, is primarily concerned with "civil disturbance" and martial law, not disaster relief.

"This should be the biggest news going right now," Ron Paul told Alex Jones as the House prepared to pass the NDAA bill. "It is literally legalizing martial law." He pointed out that the NDAA's violations of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights are remarkably not even discussed in the GOP presidential "debates" conducted by the establishment media.

as a black man it absolutely sickens me to see another black man on tv absolutely lying and trying to fool the american people into martial law. that man is the definition of a sellout. he is the governments bitch. he doesn't even realize what he is doing...he is just a fucking puppet.

@LoneKook No, but he uses it to his advantage. They twist it into saying it's ov the lord to go for vaccines or to give in your guns. Just like they use the 16th ammendment to pay income tax. There's no law that says we have to pay income tax.

People wake the fuck up and tell everyone you know!! Everything Alex has said will happen come true!!! Your families will die be raped and tortured. Fight now or its too late our best weapon is knowledge! We need to wake everyone up that's our weapon

NOPD stomps all over constitutional rights on a daily, hourly, momentary basis, and although ironic, military patrols by the national guard, here in New Orleans, would actually serve to re-instate them. Especially those of LIfe, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness, as those murders in the streets extinguish them a new daily.

@LetMeFlyinPeace He's absolutely full of it. Crime is much worse in Dallas than New Orleans! You don't hear them begging for military support.

@LetMeFlyinPeace Why are you bringing race into this. dumbass

the black man can barely speak english

Just wait... when those poor, depended people wake up, and not get their entitlements - all hell will break loose!

[JoyceJeffersonTV]

@AGldJM - I say, don't even register them. When they have to do a gun confiscation, they will know exactly where to go!

[JoyceJeffersonTV]

@Deeredman4 - it will start off as help to "fight crime". It will go from NOLA, to NYC, to Chicago, to LA. Then, it will eventually go to other cities. They would use the local police for the smaller towns. So either way, we would have some kind of "military" type force.

@LetMeFlyinPeace - I am black too and it makes me sick! They have always used minorities or people of lower class to do their dirty work!
