I thought the National Guard were under control of the Governor. The president CANNOT "take" control of them. The Governor has to ASK the President.

I recall this was an issue when the Governor refused to call her Guard when asked By W. Bush before hurricane Katrina.


"Organization

Territorial organization

The National Guard of the several states, territories, and the District of Columbia serves as part of the first-line of defense for the United States.[7] The state National Guard is organized into units stationed in each of the 50 states, three territories, and the District of Columbia, and operates under their respective state or territorial governor, except in the instance of Washington, D.C., where the National Guard operates under the President of the United States or his designee. The governors exercise control through the state adjutants general.[8] The National Guard may be called up for active duty by the governors to help respond to domestic emergencies and disasters, such as hurricanes, floods, and earthquakes"


"Duties and administrative organization

"National Guard units can be mobilized for federal active duty to supplement regular armed forces (I believe Posse Comitatus prevents the Armed Forces from operating in the U.S. itself) during times of war or national emergency declared by Congress,[20] the President[20] or the Secretary of Defense.[21] They can also be activated for service in their respective states upon declaration of a state of emergency by the governor of the state or territory in which they serve"

Please keep any and all incoming Syrian refugees in New York and California.

I'd rather not be more European.

It should not take Paris attacks for anyone to see Islam and Muslims will never play nice. Its as stupid as thinking you can bond with a pit viper. Second Alabama does not need the scorn of some idiot liberal. a beautiful state that does not need the likes of some sky dragon idiot from the failed state of Kalifornia and its BS sanctuary cities, anti gun and pro illegal grunts to point a finger at it. Stupid people who have never been out of their liberal asshat zone of stupidity.

All 50 Governors need to do the same thing. Keep them out of this country.

To be fair, Governors need to also refuse any visa holders from France or Belgium.
