As American citizens, we declare that no US armed forces unit has the right to subdue us, imprison us, or take our property, in keeping with the spirit and letter of the US Constitution, including the Amendments, and especially the Posse Comitatus Act, a United States federal law (18 U.S.C. § 1385). We urge our representatives in Congress to pass emergency legislation reasserting Posse Comitatus and to strip the President, George W. Bush, of rights he claimed in his 'signing note' appended to HR5122 (also known as the John Warner Defense Authorization Act) on January 28, 2008). We assert that under no circumstances should US armed forces be used against US civilians, including and not limited to crowd control or to put down insurgency. We urge every armed force personnel to refuse to obey orders if directed to act against US citizens. We the people will collect funds for such infantry and officer's legal defense and will hold them as heroes and defenders of freedom for any time served in the defense of the US constitution. When President Bush swore to uphold and defend the US Constitution, he agreed that he would be subject to two years' time in prison for any use of US Armed Forces personnel against US citizenry. It's time for even more toughly worded legislation to protect the people of the United States from domestic tyranny. AFTER YOU SIGN THE PETITION, THE IPETITION SITE WILL ASK YOU FOR A DONATION. 0% OF YOUR DONATION WILL GO TO THIS CAUSE. AGAIN --- NONE OF THAT DONATION WILL GO TO THIS CAUSE. YOU ARE UNDER NO OBLIGATION TO DONATE. PLEASE SIGN THE PETITION ANYWAY.

I am truly humbled to see that so many of you share this deep concern for our fundamental rights. It feels surreal that my simple hope for constitutional clarity has resonated with this many people who are just as worried as I am.

This makes me sick. My grandpa fought for freedom and he would be ashamed to see where we are headed.

The military belongs on foreign soil not patrolling our streets. This is exactly why we have the 2nd amendment in the first place.

Ridiculous that this even needs to be said. Keep the army away from our neighborhoods.

Posse Comitatus exists for a good reason. Stop trying to turn the US into a police state.

Keep soldiers out of domestic affairs. Thats what the national guard and local police are for. Total overreach.
