Psst... That law must go through process to overrule. That is part of the constitution. Our commander and chief does not have authority to overrule a law that has already passed.
Does this law say that the federal goverment MUST sell surplus to the locals, or that it MAY sell surplus to the locals? barfo
As barfo said, it's not a requirement that they sell. Obama doesn't need to change the law to review giving or selling federal equipment.
I am glad to hear it Sir! Yes I do believe in the Constitution, and the idea of amending the Constitution when adjustment is required. A good idea will pass, but it must be good in the eyes of many. That is the beauty of requiring a super majority in Congress and of all States. I think any change in the power of the Federal government or the separation of power between the branches must pass through the amendment process for the protection of our rights and liberty. Any other process and we give up our freedom bit by bit. I am not in favor of transferring one bit no matter how good the apparent benefit without the due process.
The rules of engagement are entirely opposite. Military is supposed to kill the enemy. Police are to protect the people.
Exactly. The total mind game played we don't even want to go there. The military has a much more in depth mental check process than Police. I want that check and then some before we start militarizing them.
