This past March 7, the National Guard in South Carolina performed door-to-door ‘wellness checks’ in an state-wide drill entitled Operation Vigilant Guard. The stated purpose was to prep for a Category 4 hurricane disaster.
Overall, around 2,000 military personnel and 5,000 persons from the South Carolina emergency management divisions participated.
This certainly harkens back to Hurricane Katrina disaster, where the National Guard and local law enforcement confiscated guns door-to-door.

We defend Rights Not take away !!
The Posse Comitatus Act is a United States federal law (18 U.S.C. § 1385, original at 20 Stat. 152) signed on June 18, 1878 by President Rutherford B. Hayes. The purpose of the act – in concert with the Insurrection Act of 1807 – is to limit the powers of the federal government in using its military personnel to act as domestic law enforcement personnel. It was p$#%&!@*ed as an amendment to an army appropriation bill following the end of Reconstruction, and was subsequently updated in 1956 and 1981.
Yea, laws we have limiting governmental powers are actually there to “protect the army from being abused”. You are wrong Jesse, and by your smug response you obviously find comfort in the idea of being policed by the military like a boot licking sheep. Well, Good luck with that, seems to have worked for every other great nation on the face of the planet throughout human history.

they wouldnt get my guns so easy .
elliott england, The state has no right to seize you guns for no reason. If you break the laws, yes. The givernor should have more important thing to do like help finding jobs for his people and the national guard is good at helping people but they should not have any rights to take someone’s weapons. Guns are for protection and ever law biding citizen should have them.
