Deploying the Marines for Riot Control
BY Herschel Smith
For those who follow me on X, up until now I’ve just been insistent that they don’t deploy the Marines unless arming orders are issued.
Call me old fashioned, but personally I’m a big fan of peace officers and the Posse, and when more is needed, the unorganized militia. And shooting horse thieves and home invaders.
The problem with the unorganized militia is that it relies on a legitimate government to call it up, unless it self-mobilizes under its officers. You know there is militia in neighboring states that could mobilize quickly.
We’re here because of illegitimate government, and because America no longer believes in the Posse and the Militia.
Well, they're sporting pump action shotguns. I'd rather have a Benelli M4 or Beretta 1301 but whatever. I do wonder if those pouches have bean bags in them or what? What will they be shooting? Maybe pump action because bean bags won't work so well to cycle gas or inertia guns.

They are probably loaded with rubber slugs. When I went on some riot details when in the Border Patrol, we used rubber slugs. They really hurt!

The so-called “riots” are meant to seem spontaneous, but they’re not… far from it. They’re actually the result of a lot of planning, forethought and funding.
The nation-wide event, which is called “No Kings” and is scheduled to kick off June 14th, is piggybacked off of the LA riots and unrest. It’s head organizer is President of the American Federation of Teachers, Randi Weingarten.
Weingarten is backstopped by dark money from the George Soros-Arabella Advisors network. The participants read like a who’s who of communist/leftist trouble-makers, from Antifa and BLM to Muslim Brotherhood-connected groups to the local chapter of La Raza as well as the usual assortment of Soros NGOs that have fomented “color revolutions” in other countries.
The Chi-Coms are also involved, it is rumored – and the Trump administration is said to be investigating such links, according to statements by Kristi Noem, DHS head.
Dozens upon dozens of protests dovetailing with those in LA are planned across the country, in states as far afield as Alaska.
The Blue Sky social network online – a favorite gathering place for leftist causes – is running ads seeking, “the toughest all-round bad asses in the city” (meaning Los Angeles). and elsewhere, stating that the positions pay $6500-12500/week. So we know paid participants are taking part and that “Astro-turfing” is going on.
Why would the organizers of this undertaking be looking for such tough guys, if they didn’t have some sort of trouble in mind?
Noted analyst and former Navy SEAL Matt Bracken has said that this operation may herald the start of what he terms “Civil War 2.0” and he may be right.
It looks as if the left is preparing to cross some sort of Rubicon from which there will be no turning back….
