<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Well. the migrant caravan intent to
storm the southern border of those Untied States is indeed best
interpreted as an act of aggression by a organized foreign power
and hence a threat to the federal authority and a challenge to the
integrity of the border.<br>
<br>
The only reasonable response is the exercise of deadly force with
extreme prejudice. <br>
If there is no consequence to violation of the authority and the
border, then there is no<br>
reason to respect the authority within the borders, either.<br>
<br>
The angular mass of authority is I=mr<sup>2</sup>.<br>
<br>
If there is no border, then "r" deflates to zero and no matter how
large "m" is, <br>
there is no effect.<br>

<p class="">Dear Ron,</p>
<p class=""><strong class="">This morning, news broke that
the Trump administration issued an order authorizing
</strong><strong class="">troops at the border to use
deadly force against migrants.
</strong>This is not only horrifying, it violates the
critical law that keeps the military completely separate
from domestic law enforcement. [1]</p>
<p class=""><strong class="">This is one of the most
dangerous things the Trump administration has ever done.</strong>
Active-duty troops authorized to shoot people seeking
refuge at the southern border not only terrorizes migrant
families, it erodes our rule of law, and makes
servicemembers political pawns. This is not just
terrifying—<strong class=""><em class="">it’s illegal and
we cannot allow it to happen.
</em></strong></p>
<p class="">Together with our friends at CREDO Action, tens
of thousands of us have taken action to demand Secretary
of Defense James Mattis cancel and recall troops from the
border. With today’s shameful and unprecedented news,
<strong class="">we MUST keep the pressure on, and have
our voices heard.</strong></p>
<p class=""><strong class="">That’s why we’re issuing an </strong><strong
class=""><em class="">urgent
</em></strong><strong class="">call to demand Sec.
Mattis make clear that U.S. troops are not authorized to
use deadly force at the border, and to bring the troops
home immediately.</strong></p>
<p class=""><a style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration:
underline;"
href="https://act.winwithoutwar.org/act/sec-mattis-reject-illegal-order-and-bring-troops-home?source=20181121_2&t=4&akid=2915%2E37829%2EucXQpt"
class="" moz-do-not-send="true">Sign now! Tell Sec.
Mattis to make clear that U.S. troops cannot use any
force against migrants. Period. Bring the troops home
immediately.</a></p>

<p class=""><strong class="">This new order by Trump’s White
House is dangerous on three fronts: it further
terrorizes migrants seeking safety and refuge, it upends
longstanding law, and it expands Trump’s rising
authoritarianism.</strong></p>
<p class="">The illegal order came from the White House
chief of staff, John Kelly — who has no official military
role. In other words, someone outside military “chain of
command” is telling troops what to do. That’s deeply
dangerous.</p>
<p class="">But Secretary of Defense James Mattis IS in the
“chain of command.” He must use his official power to make
clear that the military will not be used to violate the
law.
<strong class="">That’s why we must double down and demand
louder than ever that Sec. Mattis reject any illegal or
unconstitutional order, and immediately withdraw ALL
troops, including the National Guard, from the border
now.</strong></p>
<p class=""><a style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration:

class="" moz-do-not-send="true">Tell Sec. Mattis: Stand
up for the rule of law. Reject the White House order and
bring the troops home from the border NOW!</a></p>
<p class="">Ron, those walking hundreds of miles in pursuit
of refuge have every right to seek asylum in this country.
This holiday season we are opening our doors and tables to
break bread with community, because we know we are
stronger when we’re united. Not only should troops be at
home for the holidays, but migrants seeking refuge and
sustenance should be met with welcoming arms and open
hearts—not bans, walls, and deadly force.
<em class="">Let’s do everything we can to take a stand
against hatred and state violence today.</em></p>
<p class="">Thank you for working for peace,</p>
<p class="">Mariam, Michelle, Erica, and the Win Without War
team</p>
