I hate to say it, but I am not sad to see the military getting cut.

I say this because I think the next target of the US military will be the US public.

I used to dismiss such talk. But after seeing how quickly park ranger of all people pulled out M4s and pointed them at citizens at war memorials, I realized that most soldiers, marines, and civilian police will not keep their oaths to defend the Constitution, but will rather just follow orders.

And, yes, I am ex-military. Never thought I’d have this opinion.

You need to rethink your position, DHS is bigger than the United States Marine Corps. A small leaner military will only impact overseas capability, domestically a smaller force will be more efficient especially if coordinating with the DHS.

Exactly right. The next time I am in NPS I will compliment them on their brown shirts. The more military that are out now the more the fights that come later will be equal.....
