You really think US Marines will fire on US Citizens defending their Constitutional Rights?

I'd say today it depends on the Marine.

The traditional soldier is being driven out. The efforts to put more women in command positions and the allowance of open homosexuality are there not just to placate certain groups. These policies are meant to discourage the entry into the military of conservatives.

"The traditional soldier is being driven out."

And our GENERALS are now openly waving their gay pride flags.. If this scenario plays out before the entire military goes gay, there's gonna be a few dead high-ranking fags scattered about.

Where does that traditional soldier end up when he’s driven out?

How much loyalty do you think he’ll have to the government that forced him out?

Finally, if soldiers are being chosen nowadays for their political correctness rather than their combat skills, who does that give the advantage too?

Spirited: You are right. Our increasingly ‘liberalized’ military has been losing its’ traditional officers for years now and the current program is to rid it of traditional soldiers.

The conscienceless ruling elite are building a military and police force of demoralized, disloyal “yes-men” who if told to fire upon Americans will do so. As evidence of their success: Ruby Ridge, Waco, and the jack-booted seizure and forced return of an immigrant Cuban boy to communist Cuba a few years ago.

Yep, in a generation we’ll have a military made up of people who were once rejected for TSA positions. They’ll fire on you just as good Germans once did.

Half the nation voted for Obama last go round.

I think that as far as using the military against the citizens, it’s a lose-lose for the government. If the military is staffed with patriots, they will not follow unlawful orders and will not turn on their fellow citizens. If it is staffed by non-patriots, they will be too cowardly to engage their fellow citizens.

Yes, there would be exceptions. But by and large, this won’t happen. I’m a little more worried about some of the LEOs. But in either case, the swaggering bully types are usually sissies who would turn tail at the first sign of trouble. Those who are truly brave and have integrity do not swagger around and bully others.

I just keep looking back to the 30s and what happened to the WWI pensioners camping around DC - yes many in the military will resist, but many will comply.

And yes things are not as they once were.

For a newbie, what took you so long to get here? Your comment is clearly a part of bo’s plan to subjugate and take down free America. Keep up the good posts and welcome.
