No other person could make such an absurd argument that the United States military operates outside the Constitution. Oh really...? Ask any person who has actually served in the Army or Marines if "freedom of speech" actually operates in the same way that it does for civilians in civilian life.

Well, then just for starters, we need to sue the military for operating under its own separate set of legal codes as well as its own collection of military tribunals and courts. They have juries that are comprised exclusively of military personnel or officers. These groups serve as both "judge and jury" and render verdicts. This obviously constitutes a violation of the equal protection clause of the Fourteenth Amendment.

No. You need to stop making excuses for your own laziness and take the time to actually read the Constitution. It's not like it's some 300 page novel or anything. Even if you have to use your finger, you can probably get through it in an hour or so.

There's no reason to sue anyone as the military does not operate outside of the Constitution in any way, shape or form. Again, READ THE DAMNED THING! Educate yourself. It's our founding document for crying out loud!
