President Dwight Eisenhower faced objections, if he forces of The Law in 1957, to send US to Arkansas, to the control of a protest in a school where black and white children were taught together.

Since The End of the 1960s, the use of The Law was rare. Congress amended it in 2006 after the hurricane "Katrina" in an attempt, the military support is more effective, but The Amendment was repealed after state governors objected.
