Tell me they are armed.
“Being sent”? I thought they were already there in place.
Gotta check the laws first, I suppose.
Fantastic.
Should be more like 7000, with armor and orders to shoot to kill, if necessary.
“Protests” are continuing today in downtown Los Angeles.
How nice of all those employers to let off their employees for the day so they could go and protest.
Guard Federal officers and buildings and have video of tons of popcorn being delivered.
No doubt in my mind that lefty democrats and other politicians look at the NG as glorified citizens in camo or “weekend warriors” - but the United States Marine Corp is a different skull crushing force. What will be the rules of engagement?? They simply won’t be put in or tolerate being assaulted by invader trash OR citizens!
Every new version of the news has more marines. Well….good. I hope they are armed. C’mon, Hegseth, make sure they are armed.
I’ve read about all kinds of riot control weapons/tools that have been developed over the past 15 years. Why are they not being used? My favorite is coordinated, but AI driven, drone swarms with airborne and land components. They are programmed to use nonlethal means to subdue and disperse rioters, based on recognition of threatening posture and other characteristics. I guess they are saving them for us.
Travis sees thousands of Mexicans running toward the Alamo.
He turns to Crockett: “Did you order concrete work Davy?”
Good question. Even for Marine Presidental Security Forces, the basic motto is “always be polite, always be professional, always be prepared to kill anyone you meet”.
