Army Deploys Combat Unit in U.S. Against Possible Civil Unrest

Check out the last paragraph, I found it a bit concerning

For the first time ever, the US military is deploying an active duty regular Army combat unit for full-time use inside the United States to deal with emergencies, including potential civil unrest.


Beginning on October 1, the First Brigade Combat Team of the Third Division will be placed under the command of US Army North, the Army?s component of the Pentagon?s Northern Command (NorthCom), which was created in the wake of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks with the stated mission of defending the US "homeland" and aiding federal, state and local authorities.
