Im surprised that...
None of you have posted about this yet...
It seems a new law that President Bush signed on Oct. 17 will allow the President to impose martial law on any state or territory, using federal troops and/or the state's own, or other states', National Guard troops. From the article: Quote:
Here is a link to the bill in question. The relevant part is Sec. 1076 about 3/4 of the way down the page. http://www.govtrack.us/congress/bill.xpd?bill+h109-5122 The link is dead for now... (slashdotted)... but should return soon enough. Public Law 109-364

No Problem Here

In reality all it did is to expand existing wording that considers terrorists and the border situation and makes it legal to use federal troops for some enforcement activities under some situations. I remember Eisenhower's use of airborne troops to integrate Little Rock HS in the late 50s after the governor tried to use the state National Guard to keep it segregated despite a Supreme Court decision.
