Obama proposes massive new "civilian national security force"

[glockmail]

....."We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set," [Obama] said Wednesday. "We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.".....

Is he going to fund the Minutemen?

What exactly is the point of this group? What type of National security issues cant be handled by the military?

Didn't a certain "socialist" party back in the 1930's start something much like this? If I remember right it was a way to bring pride back into the country and keep a close eye on your neighbors, you know you don't want them using too much water or electricity......

All too plainly, nearly all of them!!

The military obviously has not managed to handle either of the wars we are in; maybe Obama wants a draft so he can send troops to fight for this and that and the other black tribe in Africa. That would not make sense re our national interests, but then, neither do the two current useless wars we are losing, and a Republican started both of them.

He could use civilians to guard the southern border of the country: neither the military NOR the border patrol has managed to secure it yet.

There are a lot of national security issues in our cities --- Baltimore is the current murder capitol of America, but other black cities such as Detroit and Newark and Philadelphia are not far behind. Uniformed police haven't managed to keep the peace anywhere in these black cities, so maybe he'll send in battalions of young white men and women forced from their normal lives to battle drug dealers on North Avenue in Baltimore?

I dont think they are talking draft here. This sounds more like Gestapo to me.

If we join do we get to wear big black boots, goose step, and say hiel Obama as we march by the presidential grand stand. Just remember watch your neighbor and report anything that he does wrong!!!!!!!

Here's a thought, why not properly man and fund the organizations you just mentioned. We don't need another organization. Fund the Border Patrol, fund the police departments, Get the recruiting dollars flowing into those organizations and let them do their job. We have too many politicians and lawyers getting in the way of the border patrol and police forces nationwide.

As far as the military not being able to do our job. You are incorrect. We do provide national security. We do our job every day. Are we perfect? No, but are you?

I see a resurgence of the hitler youth program blended with Nightwatch from Babylon 5. Something tells me these groups would be predominately black with police and military powers. It's director would be a fellow named wright. The core membership would come from the nation of islam.
