Because federal outranks state...
Newsom has no control over the Marine Corp or US Navy. He does have control over the roads in his state.
Jesus...
trump appointed SC judges just said not even they can stop trump from doing anything last week...
And you...
You really think the only way to accomplish shit is thru the legal system?
Just, since when did you think Cali cops are concerned about the legality of their issues?
If an ICE agent has a gun to your head, screaming he's going to execute you, would you be ok with cops showing, seeing it's a fed, and then saying:
Or would you want them to arrest the ICE agent with a fucking gun to your head. And then worry about the legal ramifications later when you don't have a crazy person holding a gun to your head?
Like, come the fuck on, does none of this make the teenyist but if sense to you?
So what do you want Newsome do to? Send California police officers to storm a Marine base?
I can assure you that cops can arrest military members...
And that since US military isn't supposed to act on US soil, yes, cops can go onto a military base to stop them from firing live artillery rounds into civilian populated areas.
But even if it wasn't ok, you do it to keep your citizens safe, then fight the fallout in courts.
How fucking bad is Civics in highschool these days? I'm getting the feeling from this thread that it hasn't even existed for a decade.
Look, I'd love nothing more than for a bunch of bad ass good guys to go in there and slap cuffs on anyone involved in this little "celebration". Unfortunately we live in reality and not an MCU movie though, so they had to do the next best thing.
Fucking insane everyone thinks the only way cops could have stopped this is by shooting guns...
Do you think there's zero risk of shots being fired if a bunch of police show up on a Marine base and start slapping cuffs on soldiers?
That entire hypothetical scenario is basically how it would go down, yes. Cops are not on your side any more than ICE is. Although, recent actions by ICE have certainly pushed more cops off of their side, which is a plus.
Ok...
So do you not understand how much pull Newsom has with the police in Cali?
Do you not understand the buck stops on the Govenor's desk for police?
This has a lot of information in an easy to read format if you want to.learn more about how our system works:

You think the police could stop the Navy?
Only because of my years of service in the US military...
How long were you in the US military, Aussiemandeus@aussie.zone?
I'm not even American, you know that.
Oh really?
Well, congrats for taking such a vested interest in American military and law enforcement that you feel comfortable walking into a comment thread and telling a bunch of Americans how complicated interactions between the two groups work.
Super helpful mate, really appreciate it.
Nah no worries mate, any time.
Glad to see i was right though considering the us police didn't do shit all.
So no need to thank me
murika yeh! ... not.
gtf outta here with that shit you self centered prick.
How is direct experience being " a self centered prick"?
If someone said race car drivers don't have to obey the speed limit on the highway. And someone who used to race shows up and clarifies they still had to follow the law...
Would you get mad and insult them for having direct experience and sharing their knowledge?
