On Monday’s broadcast of “CNN Information Central,” Rep. Tom Suozzi (D-NY) predicted that mass deportations will result in “chaos” and if President-Elect Trump makes an attempt to make use of the navy, “his efforts will most likely fail. And we shouldn’t be doing it. We will’t have folks freaking out like that. It should trigger chaos, and that might be unhealthy for native regulation enforcement to have that sort of chaos, the place persons are afraid to go to their native law enforcement officials as a result of they’re afraid of all — afraid of the federal government, and that’s what causes gangs, you go for defense. When you can’t get safety from the police, who do you go to for defense? So, that’s what causes anarchy in societies.”
Suozzi mentioned that mass deportations would trigger “chaos” and when the dialogue turned to utilizing the navy, he acknowledged, “I don’t suppose it’s authorized. We’d should get the consultants to inform us. However there’s a factor referred to as posse comitatus, which [means] you may’t use the navy to do civilian work, and that’s not a navy operate. So, that might be challenged, if he tries to do this, and it’ll most likely — his efforts will most likely fail. And we shouldn’t be doing it. We will’t have folks freaking out like that. It should trigger chaos, and that might be unhealthy for native regulation enforcement to have that sort of chaos, the place persons are afraid to go to their native law enforcement officials as a result of they’re afraid of all — afraid of the federal government, and that’s what causes gangs, you go for defense. When you can’t get safety from the police, who do you go to for defense? So, that’s what causes anarchy in societies.”
