The Posse Comitatus Act Must Remain

email sent to Rep Phil Roe, and Senators Bob Corker and Lamar Alexander.

The intent of the Posse Comitatus Act was to prohibit local governments and law enforcement agencies from using federal military personnel to enforce the laws of the land. The other services were added  at later dates or prohibited by Department of Defense directives.

The use of military drones is a direct violation of the Posse Comitatus Act in that to engage the drones for local use members of the military are working with and assisting local governments to enforce laws of the land. The principle of the Posse Comitatus Act must be upheld at all costs less the military and its "just following orders" mentality become a burden to the citizens of the United States.

I encourage you to NOT repeal the Posse Comitatus Act and to enforce it vigorously.
