The New York National Guard is working with local law enforcement authorities to perform sophisticated scans of

vehicles entering the New York area looking for guns and drugs in the latest alarming example of how America is

under a state of de facto martial law.

Under the umbrella of the war on drugs and in complete violation of Posse Comitatus, National Guard units in

New York are engaged in a domestic fight targeting American citizens with new ionization swabbing technology

that enables them to find drugs or weapons via undervehicle inspections of cars based on the flimsiest of

pretexts.

The New York National Guards counter-drug task force (is) providing not only the people but the equipment law

enforcement may need to make drug arrests and seizures,reports Fox News 23. Such seizures includes the

seizure of weapons, as Guard units,who are now working with foreign troops in exercises targeting

American terrorists, are primed to engage in gun confiscation programs.

A video demonstration filmed by Fox 23shows a typical checkpoint-style set up with a sign that states slow

under vehicle inspection as a swab of a car is performed. Although the report states that a warrant is needed to

perform an inspection, an example cited of where the technology was used was apparently prompted by a police

officer claiming to smell marijuana coming from a vehicle. The vehicle was swabbed but no drugs were found.

National Guard helicopters are also aiding the police with observation, tracking, and finding illegal growing

operations, another complete violation of the Posse Comitatus Act and the Insurrection Act, which substantially

limit the powers of the federal government to use the military for law enforcement unless under precise and

extreme circumstances.

Under the John Warner Defense Authorization Act, signed by President Bush on October 17, 2006, the law was

changed to state, The President may employ the armed forces to restore public order in any State of the United

States the President determines hinders the execution of laws or deprives people of a right, privilege, immunity, or

protection named in the Constitution and secured by law or opposes or obstructs the execution of the laws of the

United States or impedes the course of justice under those laws.

However, these changes were repealed in their entirety byHR 4986: National Defense Authorization Act for

Fiscal Year 2008, reverting back to the original state of theInsurrection Act of 1807.

The original text of the Insurrection Act severely limits the power of the President to deploy troops within the United

States.

For troops to be deployed, a condition has to exist that, (1) So hinders the execution of the laws of that State, and

of the United States within the State, that any part or class of its people is deprived of a right, privilege, immunity,

or protection named in the Constitution and secured by law, and the constituted authorities of that State are

unable, fail, or refuse to protect that right, privilege, or immunity, or to give that protection; or (2) opposes or

obstructs the execution of the laws of the United States or impedes the course of justice under those laws. In any

situation covered by clause (1), the State shall be considered to have denied the equal protection of the laws

secured by the Constitution.

As one respondent to the story points out, while cops and National Guard are busy harassing citizens and

subjecting them to vehicle scans if an officer smells pot, real criminals and killers are still on the loose.

Dont the Schenectady police have better things to do than investing a year investigating someone whos a cop

claimed smelled like pot? There was shooting on Hamilton Hill where an 11 year old boy was shot in the head

along with his brother. Well, that shooter is still on the loose while the SPD is preoccupied with borrowing gadgets

from the national guards to track down drug users. The scarce resources of police departments should be devoted

to catching criminals who harm the public by murdering, mugging and stealing. The police shouldnt wasting their

resources on people who are committing consensual crimes. And the war on drugs is really a war on people,

writes the respondent.

Under the pretext of helping local communities short of police in difficult economic times, U.S. troops are now

occupying America as the country sinks into a state of de facto martial law.

The military are now being called upon to undertake roles normally designated to police as Americans are

incrementally acclimated to accept the presence of troops on the streets as an everyday occurrence. National

Guard units are now being deployed for things liketraffic control in places like Kingman Arizona, and providing

security at sports events like the Kentucky Derby.

As we reported in 2008, U.S. troops returning from Iraq are now occupying America, running checkpoints and

training to deal with civil unrest and crowd control under the auspices of a Northcom program that by 2011 will

have no less than 20,000 active duty troops deployed inside America to help state and local officials during times

of emergency.

We have documented numerous instances of troops and National Guard personnel being used to perform law

enforcement duties which are transparently outside the purview of the Guards supposed role to respond to

national emergencies and therefore completely illegal.

In January 2009, soldiers from the Lynchburg-based 1st Battalion, 116th Brigade Combat Team, were used to

conduct personal searches at checkpointsin Washington DC for the inauguration of Barack Obama.

In March of that same year, we reported onU.S. Army troops dispatched to patrol the streets of Samson,

Alabama, after a murder spree.

On April 6, we reported on aDHS, federal, state, Air Force, and local law enforcement checkpoint in

Tennessee. On April 3,Infowarswas instrumental in the cancellation of a seatbelt checkpoint that was to be

conducted in conjunction with the Department of Homeland Security and the 251st Military Police in Bolivar,

Tennessee.

In December 2008, we reported on the Marine Corps Air and Ground Combat Center dispatching troops to work

with police on checkpoints in inSan Bernardino County, California.

On April 22 2009,we reportedthe deployment of 400 National Guard Combat Support Battalion troops to

maintain public order at the Boston Marathon.

In June 2008, Infowars posted an article byD. H. Williamsof the Daily Newscaster reporting the deployment of

2,300 Marines in the city of Indianapolis under the direction of FBI and the Department of Homeland Security.

We also reported a story on April 22 2009 covering the assault of a local television news team by an irate

police officer in El Paso, Texas. A video taken by the news videographer shows uniformed soldiers working with

police officers at the scene of a car accident.

The routine use of military and Guard units in dealing with mundane law enforcement duties is part of an

acclimation program to make Americans accept the sight of armed men in military fatigues patrolling the streets as

America sinks further into a Communist-style police state and a state of de facto martial law
