Mercenaries Patrolling Our Cities

The citizens of the United States should be aware that their federal government is using mercenary forces such as Blackwater, DynCorp, Intercon, American Security Group, Blackhawk, Wackenhut and an Israeli company called Instinctive Shooting International to police our cities such as New Orleans following Katrina.

The Federal government is ignoring Posse Comitatus (the ban on using US troops in domestic law enforcement). The presence of heavily armed private forces in New Orleans only demonstrates what everyone already feared: the utter breakdown of the government. To have them now on the streets of New Orleans is frightening, possibly illegal and definitely unconstitutional.
