Grant's view of the cause of the U.S. Civil War -- SLAVERY

does not matter, the 3 laws passed are clear the meaning is the same.
Just because you cannot use grammar correctly does not also give you license to change the argument or to purposely ignore sections of the 1807 act, 332 inherently describes a form of insurrection the POTUS can act against.....since the 1807 act is expressly describing all forms of insurrection the POTUS can act against. You don't get to say everything EXCEPT sec 332 is describing what a POTUS can do against forms of insurrection.
 
:lamo, i see you not talking today so loudly about your later postings

Dude, you have no idea what a fool you are making of yourself.

I will grant you, it's funny as hell watching you twist into more logic holes and display your utter inability to even comprehend what you yourself are saying, so please carry on.

I always like a good laugh.

its nice, to see you put up a front to make yourself feel better about your errors :2razz:
 
you too, nice ploy to make yourself feel better......:2wave:
I feel better only in the confirmation that I am not the only one that notices your various rhetorical "ploys".

You going to counter #253, or are you calling it a day?

i already have countered it, by posting the meanings of 3 laws, and each time the law passed the meaning was the same .

you really showed your hand, when you had nothing and tried to post from 1863, and when that didn't work you had to come up with a new ploy to try ,which you are in that mood now.

Lets get this straight right here, right now, are you seriously going to argue that section 332 of the Insurrection Act of 1807 does NOT describe what actions a POTUS may take in cases of insurrection against federal authority?

i am stating what an insurrection is as stated by the 1792 1795 and 1807 acts, and the definition is the same for all three, it involves the takeover of state government inside of a states, not against the federal government.
 
1807 acts, and the definition is the same for all three, it involves the takeover of state government inside of a states, not against the federal government.
The 1807 act does describe actions the POTUS can take in countering those acting against the authority of federal law/government.



332. Use of militia and armed forces to enforce Federal authority
Whenever the President considers that unlawful obstructions, combinations, or assemblages, or rebellion against the authority of the United States, make it impracticable to enforce the laws of the United States in any State or Territory by the ordinary course of judicial proceedings, he may call into Federal service such of the militia of any State, and use such of the armed forces, as he considers necessary to enforce those laws or to suppress the rebellion.

QED

the 3 laws are almost the same, expect for minor difference.

1792 law requires a judge and a proclamation, before the president can make a move

1795 removes the judge part, and allows the president to make a proclamation after he has moved.

the 1807 simply is a supplement to the 1795 which allows federal troops to be brought into the picture.

all 3 laws state clearly what an insurrection is and it always concerns inside of a state, that meaning never changes
 
it always concerns inside of a state
Moving the goal post again, you just said "not against the federal government" which it clearly does, now yer arguing, ambiguously, that it "concerns inside of states". Since the topic is about what is happening "inside a state", ie, actions against federal authority, you still lose. The point was actions against federal authority within the US....er...UNITED STATES.

Frigging hurr durr.

This wasn't a discussion about actors beyond our shores.....derp

no where will you see insurrection against the federal government, it "states" inside of states this is clear in all 3 laws passed.

you seem to think that if there is unlawful obstructions, everything is an insurrection.

Oh cataract sufferer, Lincoln did not have the US Tuna Fish Sandwich Recipe of 1789 amended, he had the 1807 Insurrection Act amended.

Good grief.
 
are you having problems since you are not staying on subject?
What part of the 1807 Insurrection Act am I not "staying on"? It seems you are doing everything to ignore sec 332.
 
why are you ignoring 331?
Because it was not what Lincoln used, it was not what Lincoln had amended into the Insurrection Act of 1807. How many times will this have to be repeated before it sinks in. He had the Insurrection Act amended to allow him to call both fed and militia troops in the case of insurrection against FEDERAL LAW/AUTHORITY. Again, it was not inserted into the National Tuna Fish Recipe, it was an amendment to the 1807 Insurrection Act.

Ketchup, yea tomato.

please show where insurrection is defined as against the federal government/united states before the war, if you can i will come over to your side and admit wrong.

i already know it was redefined after the war began as you already showed from 1863

dood....332....was....in....place....before.....the....war. "Insurrection" was not "redefined" after the war, I have already said that the term "insurgent" was used to describe colonialists....long before the CW. It is a term of art, and 332 described it as actions against federal authority.

Yer argument is done, is is becoming nothing more than a crumbling piece of carbon falling between the grates and into the greasy dregs.

I'm done here now, you are going over the same ground already covered.

the president is not given authority to use militia concerning insurrection, without state approval, until AFTER the civil war, per title 10 333

if it was an insurrsection as you say, then lincoln's actions were illegal
