“my husband retorted, “We’d probably get shot.” “

shot by whom, our national guard ?? & for what ??

if this ever happens in DC, we both can hypothesize what the consequences would be.

All I know is that things I’d never in a million years expect are happening right before our eyes. So is it that big a leap to imagine something like this?

The government has rolled tanks on protestors before, but I can’t remember what the name of the situation was.

A bunch of military veterans were camped in DC protesting a pay irregularity and if I recall correctly, they were threatened with deadly force by the active duty military. Can a freeper help me out here?
It was in the 1950s, I think.
