I am most presently concerned about an active US Army brigade being tasked with homeland security response. While there are no immediate concerns about martial law (consider that this is 3,000 soldiers in a nation of 300 million well-armed civilians). The use of Federal troops for civilian law enforcement would clearly be a violation of the Posse Comitatus Act. If you are also concerned about this, then please contact your paid to represent you, congressional representatives, and give them a piece of your concerned mind.
