GoodOlBoy is correct
Inside the confines of the Continental United States the U.S. Military is not allowed by Law to function as an active attack force. That is the job of the National Guard (which is under the control of the Governors of each state to keep the Federal Government from trying to take control of the country by Martial Law, etc.,etc.)
The Constitution strictly forbids it, even though it looks like President Bush and soon to be Obama are making plans to move 20,000 U.S. Troups into an active force inside the borders of this country by 2010 or 2011. I think the people in will have to do the defending along side of the Law Enforcement personnel. That way the Law Enforcement personnel will have someone beside them, that knows how to do the job.
