What happened the last time that the President of the United States exceeded a country to spread the National Guard

On an unreasonable but sunny day, March 20, 1965, US President Lindon B. stood up. Johnson is on the balcony of the Texas farm and read a telegram he just sent to the governor of Alabama George Wallace.

Johnson said: “I am inviting federal service units selected from the National Guard in Alabama … to help you meet your state’s responsibilities,” Johnson said.

For more than a week, Johnson and Wallace were going back and forth regarding the president’s concerns for the safety of blacks from alabamians who were trying to exercise their right to vote and protest against the police brutality.

Wallace, who was isolated, refused to summon the National Guard in his term to protect black demonstrators – who planned a march from Salma to Montgomery – so Johnson did this in his place.

To do this, Johnson protested the rebellion law, a law of the eighteenth century that allows the president to deploy military forces within the United States

This is what many legal scholars and democratic monitors believe that US President Donald Trump may one day use to obtain the opposition against his administration policies.

For the first time since Johnson, Trump on Saturday exceeded the state’s authority and called on the National Guard to suppress the protests in Los Angeles due to the recent raids by the federal immigration authorities. 2000 members of the California National Guard sent to the city on Saturday.

But Trump used a more mysterious law, which is the 10th section of the United States Law, which allows the president to provide the Federal National Guard units in the event of an invasion or rebellion or when the police are unable to implement the country’s laws.

“It was a somewhat sudden attack,” said Kim Lin Schopeli, a professor at the University of Princeton, who specializes in the new tyranny.

“I think it was something Trump’s opposition was less prepared legally.”

Another law, Posse Comitaus of 1878, generally prohibits the US military, including the National Guard, to participate in the implementation of the civil law.

Title 10 does not overcome this ban, but it allows the forces to protect federal agents who activate law enforcement and protect federal property.

For example, the National Guard forces cannot arrest the demonstrators, but they can protect us from immigration and customs benefit (ICE) who are arresting.

“An unambiguous step towards tyranny”

What worries legal scientists in the Schepele circles more, though, is that the Trump declaration that publishes the National Guard did not refer to California or a specific time period.

“There is nothing that prevents him from calling the National Guard … anywhere else (enforcement of immigration and customs) is active or where public protests arose against it.”

Newsom filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration on Monday, describing Trump’s move as a “unambiguous step towards tyranny.”

“From now and 1965 is the degree that this conflict is mainly manufactured,” said Barry Eyedlin, Assistant Professor of Sociology at McGill University, who is looking for social change in the United States and Canada.

Sixty years ago, Johnson wanted the National Guard forces that “suppressing the reactionary rebellion against the resolution of federal policy in favor of civil rights for all,” recently returned to Montreal from Los Angeles, where his family lives and divides his time.

“While the current administration is mainly tries to decline civil rights for all.”

John Carrey, a government professor at Dartmouth College in New Hampshire and co -founder of Bright Line Watch, a group that monitors the threats of American democracy, says Trump is also trying to cause violence.

“I think what is going on is that the president and his administration are trying to challenge California officials and demonstrators,” he said, adding that immigration is one of the issues that Trump enjoys the widest support.

“I am very concerned about the effects of this for American democracy.”

Curry and Idlin says the idea is that the presence of the National Guard forces can escalate violence – which seems to be the case already – justifies federal intervention.

Eyedin said that Trump wanted to create “justifications for more dramatic oppression.”

He also says that California societies are retreating, citing an email from his children’s school area, which says that no ice agents are allowed for school reasons.

In the nearby Glenel, the city police administration said on Sunday that it was no longer allowed to detention people in his prison.

The next day to deploy Johnson, the National Guard in Alabama, more than 3000 walks began from Silma to Montgomery along the 80th way. They walked for four days without the intervention of white outstanding, law enforcement or vigilance.

By the time they arrived, the march swelled into about 25,000 people. Martin Luther King Junior gave his speech “How long, not long” on the government steps of Capitol, and called for ethnic justice.

Later that year, the voting rights law was approved, which led to the closure of voter suppression practices, such as reading, writing and reconnaissance taxes.
