Are you finished with your bullshit rant? Because if you are, I might clarify that I never said “most.” But since your head is so far up your ass (sideways), you are too irrational to read. So I will refrain from bothering.

Hoorah, lil’ dickhead.

"Because if you are, I might clarify that I never said “most.”"

Okay genius let's do some elementary math here. The 2011 estimated U.S. population was 311,591,917 Americans. The total estimated number of military personnel in the U.S. (all branches, active and reserve) is 2,533,863, which is 0.82% of the total population.

So subtract those Americans in the military from the total American population. Now you have approximately 309,058,054 "civilians" remaining that the 2,533,863 members of the military would be up against if such orders were issued.

You said there were "enough troops" who would obey such an order to shoot civilians. Given that our military personnel are overwhelming outnumbered by civilians 123 to 1, in order for there to be "enough troops" nearly all (i.e., "most") of them would have to be willing to shoot their fellow American, and even if that number were at 100% it still wouldn't be enough.

In any event, by stating that there are "enough troops" willing to shoot civilians implies that most of our military would do that, which is a lie.

Oorah, big dickhead.
