Think the Armed Forces Might Save the Republic? Think Twice

Here's a cheery little document that looks at the costs and benefits of a national police force. Sound familiar?

A Stability Police Force for the United States: Justification and Options for Creating U.S. Capabilities "Security requires a mix of military and police forces to deal with a range of threats from insurgents to criminal organizations. This research examines the creation of a high-end police force, which the authors call a Stability Police Force (SPF). The study considers what size force is necessary, how responsive it needs to be, where in the government it might be located, what capabilities it should have, how it could be staffed, and its cost. This monograph also considers several options for locating this force within the U.S. government, including the U.S. Marshals Service, the U.S. Secret Service, the Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL) in the Department of State, and the U.S. Army's Military Police. The authors conclude that an SPF containing 6,000 people — created in the U.S. Marshals Service and staffed by a “hybrid option,” in which SPF members are federal police officers seconded to federal, state, and local police agencies when not deployed — would be the most effective of the options considered. The SPF would be able to deploy in 30 days. The cost for this option would be $637.3 million annually, in FY2007 dollars."

Isn't it heartwarming to know that your government is looking at the means for keeping any untoward eruption among the population under control?

Apparently (according to those not in the know), the world ends tomorrow, thus putting an end to your personal turmoil.

Admittedly, it IS a little sad that a thread I created to discuss arms ownership and why it's important in a free society had so few posts that even touched on the subject. I guess it isn't important to most people.

It looks to me like unless you live in Iceland or Switzerland, your country's citizens are destined to remain in slavery. It seems the world doesn't end on December 21st. With the exception of the countries I mentioned, it ended a long time ago.

Well, with the levels of hysteria around here, and six threads on guns in the top 10, a lighter moment was overdue. happy

On a gun thread?...tsk tsk...but I do think you're right; we should lighten up a bit. Since your wish is my command, I think we should compromise and leave this as a gun thread, but maybe with a lighter touch.

To that end, I present the hilarious and zany antics of an irrational and rude half-wit named Piers Morgan as he loses a gun battle.

http://theintelhub.com/2012/12/20/cnns-piers-morgan-blows-up-on-larry-pratt-over-gun-rights/

Too bad Piers didn't think to interview his own countrymen instead:

Wow, that Piers Morgan is an idiot and an a$$ hole.

Not only that, he resorted to name calling. He really lost it. What an idiot.

WOW... everyone should watch this who is in favor of gun control.

Yep. The guy said "They have no way of controlling the criminals so they go after the law abiding citizens.

Criminals out gun the police in Britain.

The criminal have the weapons.

Don't let that happen here.

Their country is not a safer place after banning hand guns.
