So proud of Fargo, ND. Even the police are joining in instead of fighting the protest. Stand up for what’s right. Race, political stand point, position of power, it doesn’t matter. We are all human. This is such a moving picture.

Ausschreitungen in Minneapolis: „Hier geht es um Chaos“

Walz machte außenstehende Kräfte für die Eskalation verantwortlich. 80 Prozent der Gewalttäter kämen nicht aus dem Bundesstaat. Sie seien gut organisiert und – wie der Gouverneur einräumte – taktisch den Sicherheitskräften überlegen.

Der Gouverneur warnte, dass die Lage weiter eskalieren könnte – genau darauf würden es die gewalttätigen Protestierer anlegen. Sie wollten die mediale Aufmerksamkeit und seien auch bereit, Tote in Kauf zu nehmen.

Gewalt in Minneapolis: „Professionell organisierte Gruppen“

Talan: Der Gouverneur von Minnesota hat von professionell organisierten Gruppen gesprochen, die gezielt Chaos stiften wollten. Er ist nach einer Beteiligung von „White Supremacy“-Anhängern gefragt worden (Rassistische Ideologie von einer „weißen Überlegenheit“, Anm. d.Red.) und hat bestätigt, dass es diese Gerüchte gebe. Es kursieren Fotos von Pickup-Trucks, die bei den Protesten gesichtet wurden, auf denen Sticker dieser rassistischen Bewegung klebten. Diese Fahrzeuge kamen auch aus anderen Bundesstaaten. Es gibt Berichte von einer Unterwanderung der Proteste.

Aktivisten posteten zudem ein Video von einem der ersten Fälle von Vandalismus in Minneapolis. Zu sehen ist ein weißer Mann mit Gasmaske und militärischer Kleidung, der ein Geschäft beschädigt. Er wird von einem Schwarzen zur Rede gestellt und entfernt sich, als er merkt, dass er gefilmt wird.

10 U.S. Code § 252. Use of militia and armed forces to enforce Federal authority

Whenever the President considers that unlawful obstructions, combinations, or assemblages, or rebellion against the authority of the United States, make it impracticable to enforce the laws of the United States in any State by the ordinary course of judicial proceedings, he may call into Federal service such of the militia of any State, and use such of the armed forces, as he considers necessary to enforce those laws or to suppress the rebellion.

Posse Comitatus Act

There are a number of situations in which the Act does not apply. These include:

– National Guard units, state defense forces, and naval militias[15] while under the authority of the governor of a state. However, only the National Guard can be federalized under 10 U.S.C. § 12406, which shifts control from the state governor to the President, making them subject to the PCA as well.

– Federal troops used in accordance to the Insurrection Act, as was the case with the 1st Marine Division and 7th Infantry Division being sent to curtail the 1992 Los Angeles riots.

Trump, Pentagon offer active-duty military forces and intelligence to help quell Minnesota unrest

Gov. Tim Walz (D.) acknowledged the offer as he announced that he was mobilizing the entire Minnesota National Guard. He did so after several nights of rioting in response to the death of George Floyd, a black man who was killed in police custody this week in Minneapolis while handcuffed and on video.

Walz downplayed the significance of the Pentagon’s offer to send U.S. armed forces, saying that “this has happened before” where groups from the 82nd Airborne Division and other parts of the Army are put “on readiness.”

“They’re not talking about mobilizing the entire United States Army,” Walz said. “We’re probably talking about in the neighborhood of several hundred” soldiers.
