A stupid question about Posse Comitatus |
|
Edited on Mon Sep-29-08 01:59 AM by Maccagirl
If martial law is ever declared, does that make the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878 moot? I just read an article in Google from a retired military man who teaches constitutional law now (the article was written before 9/11) and he was angry at the erosion of the act in the last 20 years.

1. You realize, of course, that martial law was NOT declared? |
