As an FOP member I object to you portraying Oathkeepers as representative of Law Enforcement, it is a radical right wing militia. How many Sworn Law Officers does "Oathkeepers" represent?

Let's get something straight: Members of the MCSO Posse, an organization that has been in place LONG before Sheriff Arpaio came into office, are Sworn Peace Officers - they ARE Law Enforcement Officers. They are officers who face the very same dangers as do regular duty deputies. They get shot at - just like other officers of the law.

They arrest the violent criminals - the drug dealers - the Human Smugglers. They search for that lost child or the child that has been abducted.

So, before you continue to try to demean these Officers of the Law, I'd suggest you simply sit back and SHUT YOUR MEAN SPIRITED MOUTH - for you CLEARLY do not know what you are talking about.

This is a straw man and it is so funny to see all these tough guys on here beating it up.

To prove my point I will use Cap's technique to prove my point (bold print)

Even Glenn Beck would not support his insinuation that this is a civilian military. He said "It means we need to ask questions". He even repeatedly tell his fear-mongering propagandist guest that. He even sided with his centrist former Carter advisor guest

I never said Obama wants a 'secret' army, the plan, as I read it, is no huge secret, and, would be quite legal, as outlined. Legal don't make it any better of a deal, however. Rather than just blindly defend Obama as a super standup guy, with nothing but good intentions, you should look into it a bit further. If that is making it 'all' about you, well, OK, but the point holds for all who would just blindly follow and put such absolute faith in our Executive leadership. That is what my post was intended to impart, the wording confuse you some?

You expected truth from Beck?
FOX New's CEO ********Testified in COURT******* that it is entertainment programing with NO DUTY TO THE TRUTH OR THE JOURNALISTIC CODE OF ETHICS

That means they are not telling the truth so anyone who believes him is a fool

Funny, seems the only ones calling out words like 'brownshirts' are left wing defenders of the faith. lets be clear about some things. The 'civilian security force' is NOT a 'brownshirt' or fanatic loyalist para military thing. It is intended to draft civil service personnel, into armed service in a time of 'crisis', and be totally under executive orders. It's scraping the bottom of the barrel, for those who can hold a gun and follow orders, and may not have the qualms about pointing said weapons at US citizens that regular military might. It's not intended to create a Gestapo, just a herd of blind mice with trigger fingers. LMAO, activation of this 'force' as presently outlined, would be a farce. But outline it they did. The latter fact , alone, should concern folks. If it does not, well, join on up. Get a government job, stick your hand up and say 'take me take me'. May as well draw some solid lines

Why do you consider me "Left", I have never been a Democrat?
One more assumption, or you have confused Conservative with Republican

You don't have to be a Democrat to be a "leftist" / liberal

Just as you do not have to be a Republican to be a "righty" / conservative
