Posse Comitatus Act Violation at G20 Demonstrations, September 24, 2009
The Posse Comitatus Act is a United States federal law (18 U.S.C. § 1385) passed on June 18, 1878, after the end of Reconstruction, with the intention (in concert with the Insurrection Act of 1807) of substantially limiting the powers of the federal government to use the military for law enforcement. The Act prohibits most members of the federal uniformed services (today the Army, Air Force, and State National Guard forces when such are called into federal service) from exercising nominally state law enforcement, police, or peace officer powers that maintain "law and order" on non-federal property (states and their counties and municipal divisions) within the United States.
The statute generally prohibits federal military personnel and units of the National Guard under federal authority from acting in a law enforcement capacity within the United States, except where expressly authorized by the Constitution or Congress. The Coast Guard is exempt from the Act during peacetime.

Correcting a few internet inaccuracies
My professional and legal name has never been anything other than Keith Mitchell/Keith Coogan. Regardless of how many times or who my mother married, I never changed my last name to anything other than Mitchell or Coogan.
I have never been credited as "B. B. Beamon"
I did not write the screenplay for "Eddie".
For the Disney Television Series "Gun Shy" which was based on the made for tv movie, "The Apple Dumpling Gang", I actually was in the last 4 episodes, not the first. Adam Rich did replace me, but only from the pilot for the first two episodes of the series... after two episodes, they cast me back in the role, where I finished the order for the network. Disney, however, aired the series episodes out of order, so it looked like I was replaced by Adam Rich after completing four episodes. Not the case. I was replaced after the pilot, but then I re-replaced Adam for whatever reason.
I am nowhere near the 5'7" that IMDB says I am.
My favorite color is red...
...and I like puppies.

Sarah Palin represents all that is anti-American
1. Breaking your word and quitting. When she ran for Governor of Alaska, she made a commitment to serve as a public figure for a determined amount of time. Once she stepped down as Governor for apparently no reason, she broke that oath of office and broke one of the basic principles of the founding fathers of this country. You can never give up, especially in the face of opposition. If Sarah Palin were somehow a part of the American Revolution, we'd all be drinking tea in the afternoons.
2. Being a good Mother. She failed to keep her own daughter from becoming pregnant while living under her own roof. It is as if she suddenly became the liberal stereotype of what can happen when a family doesn't pray to god every single day. Praying to god does not work as a contraceptive. Trust me. If you can't keep your household in order, how can you expect me to believe that you can run this country, or a state? And yes, having your under-age daughter become pregnant out of wedlock is the benchmark of a mother who apparently didn't teach her children the truth or consequences of having pre-marital sex. If she did, then her daughter didn't listen. Or, perhaps she never told her daughter the truth about where babies come from. They come from God, and that's that. God says don't have sex before you are married. Guess what? Palin's daughter had sex before getting married, and then she had a baby. So either her daughter is rebellious, or ignorant of the outcome of couch sex.
3. Wrecking the environment. Building a multi-million dollar home on the shores of a lake doesn't exactly sound like an environmentally friendly move. But then again, this is the one who says it's OK for folks to shoot wolves from a helicopter. So go ahead Sarah, build your pipelines, wreck the environment... have you not been watching the news? Green energy is all the rage... if you wanted to do things differently, then I would think you would help move the country off of fossil fuels, and into alternative energies, but by blindly destroying the environment and slavishly sticking with oil as the status quo, aren't you just demonstrating business as usual?
4. Being accountable. Sarah Palin has threatened to sue bloggers and any newspaper that re-prints anything from those blogs with defamation of character. You have to have character in order to have someone be able to decimate it... moot point. Why isn't Palin being held accountable for her remarks about Obama being a terrorist? Isn't that considered slander and libel? In her book, I guess not.
5. Being honest. Taking per diem money for travel to work, when in fact you don't deserve it is considered fraud. Confess your error, and pay back the cash. That is the American thing to do. Ignoring the problem, or resigning in grace, (since you didn't resign in disgrace, this is what I am left with) won't change the fact that you are not telling us the real reason you are stepping down. You are simply not telling us the whole story.
6. Having candor. Falwell, Clinton, and Sarkozy, these are all men that fessed up and yet continued to have a seat of power in the theater of the political world. You just seem full of shit. I don't believe for a second any of the things you have to say. There is some sort of agenda to which you are not letting me be privy to... so I have to come to the conclusion that what you are hiding could destroy us all. If you want to push the button and start WWIII, then please just say so... If you want to return this country to a collection of cave-dwelling primitives who club the next fertile female then keep it up... you're doing just great!
One thing I can't stand in politicians is the lying. I have much more respect when you simply tell me the truth. This was the one great thing about George Bush, no spin, he just said it like it was... "Yep, gonna git their oil, simple as that.... what? Is there anything wrong with that?" Nothing, George... nothing at all. Thanks for being honest.
So I feel that these traits demonstrate the possibility that Sarah Palin couldn't possibly be anything but a big, fat, lying politician. And that is pretty much the most anti-American thing I can think of one to be.
