When the military rolls out in defense of tyrants, expect a bullet from behind every tree. There are only about a million of you but there are millions of gun owners in the US.

The US military may not be used against American citizens, EVER. And when they do expect for them all to be slowly wiped out. Many will die including the innocent, but I will use every speck of training I got in the Army to defend my home, family, friends & neighbors from an invading force bent on supporting an evil tyrant.

Unfortunately there is a long history of US troops firing on it’s own civilians.
During Washington term with the Whiskey Rebellion...

Lincoln during Civil War at the New York draft riots...

Hoover (with MacArthur)on the Bonus Army....

Nixon National Guard at Kent State...

Clinton at Waco and Ruby Ridge(ATF and FBI)

Do not doubt for a second any present or future government will order troops to shoot down it’s own citizens!!!1
