Want to know why? COAST GUARD can act as a law enforcement division
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Coast_Guard#Authority_as_a_law_enforcement_agency
On 25 November 2002, the Homeland Security Act was signed into law by U.S. President George W. Bush, designating the Coast Guard to be placed under the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. The transfer of administrative control from the U.S. Department of Transportation to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security was completed the following year, on 1 March 2003.[25][26][27]
...
The U.S. Coast Guard reports directly to the Secretary of Homeland Security. However, under 14 U.S.C. § 3 as amended by section 211 of the Coast Guard and Maritime Transportation Act of 2006, upon the declaration of war and when Congress so directs in the declaration, or when the President directs, the Coast Guard operates under the Department of Defense as a service in the Department of the Navy.
...
. "It reinforces the Coast Guard maritime strategy of safety, security and stewardship, and it reflects not only the global reach of our maritime services but the need to integrate and synchronize and act with our coalition and international partners to not only win wars ... but to prevent wars," Allen said
Authority as a law enforcement agency
Title 14 USC, section 2 authorizes the Coast Guard to enforce U.S. federal laws.[29]
This authority is further defined in 14 U.S.C. § 89, which gives law enforcement powers to all Coast Guard commissioned officers, warrant officers, and petty officers.[30] Unlike the other branches of the United States Armed Forces, which are prevented from acting in a law enforcement capacity by 18 U.S.C. § 1385, the Posse Comitatus Act, and Department of Defense policy, the Coast Guard is exempt from and not subject to the restrictions of the Posse Comitatus Act.[31]
This is Yuuge, guys. It means that Trump can order the coast guard to round up the deepstaters on US soil, not only for breaking federal laws, but as a matter of national security, and especially given the financial foreign emoluments / foreign lobbying entanglements AND overseas defense contracts AND intermilitary-contracts (NATO, FIVE EYES), AND war-chest funds like Carlyle Group, Vanguard, Blackrock financial, the idea that they will use their political power to pepetuate a WAR against the WILL OF THE PEOPLE OF THE US...is absolutely treason; it's abusing their political office for gain AT THE EXPENSE of the security of the people of the US---same with the border. Everyone knows the open border is national emergency crisis, but the deepstate needs it open to destroy this country
Further law enforcement authority is given by 14 U.S.C. § 143 and 9 U.S.C. § 1401, which empower U.S. Coast Guard active and reserve commissioned officers, warrant officers, and petty officers as federal customs officers.[32][33] This places them under 19 U.S.C. § 1589a, which grants customs officers general federal law enforcement authority, including the authority to:
(1) carry a firearm;
(2) execute and serve any order, warrant, subpoena, summons, or other process issued under the authority of the United States;
(3) make an arrest without a warrant for any offense against the United States committed in the officer's presence or for a felony, cognizable under the laws of the United States committed outside the officer's presence if the officer has reasonable grounds to believe that the person to be arrested has committed or is committing a felony; and
(4) perform any other law enforcement duty that the Secretary of Homeland Security may designate.
— 19 USC §1589a. Enforcement authority of customs officers[34]
The U.S. Government Accountability Office Report to the House of Representatives, Committee on the Judiciary on its 2006 Survey of Federal Civilian Law Enforcement Functions and Authorities, identified the Coast Guard as one of 104 federal components that employed law enforcement officers.[35] The report also included a summary table of the authorities of the Coast Guard's 192 special agents and 3,780 maritime law enforcement boarding officers.[36]
Coast Guardsmen have the legal authority to carry their service-issued firearms on and off base. This is rarely done in practice, however; at many Coast Guard stations, commanders prefer to have all service-issued weapons in armories when not in use. Still, one court has held that Coast Guard boarding officers are qualified law enforcement officers authorized to carry personal firearms off-duty for self-defense.[37]

I was in the CG, still technically am under contract but not active anymore. I have tons of friends who are in right now.
While yes, we are a law enforcement entity, they arent going to fucking use us to arrest anyone except drug smugglers and drunken boaters. I fucking love trump but the man flat out forgot about us and fucked all of the pay checks up. People only got paid on the 15th due to some emergency act. Banks are giving 0% apr loans to help too which is nice but that's not the point.
This post just isnt accurate with the message its conveying.
@Hydrocephalus if any of my friends arrest any (((DC elite))), you will be the first one I tell. But heres a hint (they wont be arresting anyone except spiks off the coast of Florida)

Then where is your DD214? If you were active, and now are no longer active, you should have a DD214. But you said you don't. Which means you were not in active duty, and likely were not in the coast guard.
lets_get_hyyerr ago
Lol I knew you'd lose it when I tagged you. My man
Hydrocephalus ago
Hey, you're lying about being in the coast guard, I just like to point it out.
lets_get_hyyerr ago
Lol okay buddy. whatever you say
Hydrocephalus ago
You said you don't have a DD214, you also say you are no longer in active service. Those are mutually exclusive statements, both can't be true.
lets_get_hyyerr ago
Aha, ok lol Whatever your heart believes cutie pie <3

You've said it yourself, here's the old comment linked
[–] Hydrocephalus 1 points (+2|-1) 4 days ago (edited 4 days ago) He also claims to have served 4 years in the coast guard, and is in his 4 years of inactive reserves, yet doesn't have a dd214 which you get after your active service time is up, and is arguably the most important document you get from the military as it allows you to apply for benefits.

Please be aware that the DD-214 is a certificate of release or discharge from active duty. It is not issued upon completion of a member's contractual reserve obligation. Only continuous active duty of 90 days or greater are authorized a DD-214. https://voat.co/v/whatever/2935847/15775605 https://archive.fo/ITnXw
In the comment after he claims that his "contract" (where he says a "contract is 4 years active 4 years inactive reserves) is up in 2020 if that were true he would have had to separate in 2016.

Mhmmm, yes. Let the rage flow through your veins boy

Not rage, it's fun. Of all things you're pretending to be i the coast guard which is funny.

You and I are going to be good friends.
Ask my why. I'm being 110% serious right now. Not joking
Hydrocephalus ago
Because you love attention which is why you tried with that fake coast guard persona. Fortunately I also like making fun of people so we're a good team.

Welp, for a second I honestly tried to have a conversation but it's clear (((you're))) just going to keep spamming stuff that no one cared about.
Hydrocephalus ago
I don't care about a conversation, I have enough of a life that I am content, I'm just here for shits and giggles, and your fake coast guard story is pretty funny
