“BTW that is not the mission of the marines though catchy. My son is former active duty.”

Maybe things have changed since 1981. If so it’s not for the better.

“Can you show me where the military is not authorized to protect the country from invasion?”

I never said it wasn’t authorized. But Marines are not built to babysit. Ask your son what he thinks. I’ll bet his answer will surprise you.

“If 100,000 Japanese walked ashore in 1941 that would have been ok with you, ”

That’s a nice straw man you’ve built there. In 1941 we were in a declared war against Japan. So there’s a significant difference. Good try, though.

marines are sitting on their asses looking for a mission. THAT IS babysitting. protecting the country is their duty.

When i said mission it is a joke to say kill people and break things. That’s why your mind is locked out of mission on the border for them. Do you call them professional bullet cathcers also.

My son was in the marines on embassy sure when the shit hit the fan on 9-11 he ran the crucible in basic. I think he would argue your point about since 1981 being better.

We were not in war at the time because that never happened. i asked you IF they did that before Pearl would it have been okay to use the military. You slipped and slid away from the question because you know you are wrong.
