Here’s a thread discussing potential military cooperation with removal of firearms from civilizians, fair amount of current and retired military taking part.

Using The U.S. Military to Round Up U.S. Citizens and Confiscate Their Private Weapons
Posted on Wednesday, February 18, 2009 1:33:35 PM by FortWorthPatriot
There have been several posts on different threads where this topic has been discussed. Some FReepers say our U.S. military would not use armed force against citizens if order to do so; others say they would, going as far as saying that “the military will fight for whoever pays them to.”
I thought why not just ask our FReepers who are currently on active duty what they think.
So, active duty military FReepers, here are the questions:
1. Would you obey an order from the current president to disarm U.S. citizens and force them into internment camps?
2. Do you believe that those in your chain of command would carry out such an order?
3. What do you believe is the percentage of personnel in your command that would refuse the order?
4. What do you believe is the percentage of personnel in the entire U.S. miltary that would refuse the order?
FWP - sorry, forgot to ping you to the above, posting a link to your thread to this discussion.
