Topic: Title 10

A caller from North Carolina challenges Jack DeVault's stance on the Posse Comitatus Act by citing Title 10, Section 372 of the U.S. Code, which allows the Secretary of Defense to authorize military equipment for law enforcement. DeVault and the caller debate whether this statute made the use of tanks at Waco legal. The caller references testimony from Lieutenant Colonel Lindley at the congressional hearings.

A caller named Hap, a former intelligence officer, discusses the "gray area" of the Posse Comitatus Act and the difference between Title 10 (active duty) and Title 32 (National Guard) personnel. He explains how the National Guard is increasingly used to assist law enforcement in surveillance duties, particularly in counter-drug operations. The hosts reference Jack McLam's "Police Against the New World Order" as a resource for educating officers about these constitutional boundaries.

A caller named Bill cites Title 10 of the United States Code to argue that the military is legally allowed to provide equipment and advice to law enforcement. He claims the tanks at Waco were not operated by active military personnel, though Jeff Davis counters by mentioning the involvement of the 3rd Special Forces Group from Fort Bragg and the National Guard.
