There is NO LEGITIMATE REASON for ANY kind of military troops, federal, national guard or otherwise doing any kind of law enforcement work against civilians under normal circumstances. If there are a few bad cops here and there, fire them and hire new ones. We don't need God damned military forces enforcing anything in our American towns, no matter how polite and well-mannered they may behave ... at first.
I must agree with 76 here, military troops are not the answer. Law and order has not broken down in the subburbs of Albany. The buildings are not on fire, citizens are not in the streets carrying pitchforks, the lights are on, the water is running and the stores are open.

Put the bad cops behind bars and the rest will get the memo fast enough.

Are any of those policemen national guardmen also? Would be funny that they
show up as activated guards to replace themselves as police officers.
