1. No... No... No...

Remember your oath...

[SheltieLover]

3. +1,000,000!

[Miguelito Loveless]

17. Soldiers obey orders

History has shown us that over and over again.

They will follow orders without a second thought. They will arrest, maim, and kill on command.

[BOSSHOG]

2. When has "sensitivity of the issue"

Stopped lil Pete from blabbing? Isn’t that trumps point? To blab about awesome leadership acumen? Which does not exist.

[doc03]

4. So much for disobeying unlawful orders. Maybe they will but I doubt it. nt

[Marthe48]

5. The marines against unarmed Americans?

Kent State and Jackson State won't compare

Please make this stop

[quaint]

6. A quarter of the population of Twenty-nine Palms is Hispanic or Latino.

Just wondering...

[angrychair]

7. That will slaughter anyone that disobeys dear leader

The military is not ally.

[BidenRocks]

8. As a Marine Corp veteran and a Sgt,

I say, "Do not demean my Marine Corps!
The enemy is chump, not the citizens.
I remember how we were treated during Vietnam.
Do you want to be the hated Americans again?
STAND DOWN!

[Ellipsis]

9. My first thought was this is way below their dignity, A fucking crazy misappropriation.

[DENVERPOPS]

10. Trump has already

corruptly sent 3,000 to 6,000 active military to the southern border.........part of the buildup in using the Military and directly violating the Posse Comatatus ACT, and enabling him to "TRUMP UP" corrupt reasons to activate the entire Military against U.S. Citizens who disagree with his self idolized tyranny.

[slightlv]

11. Yeah... moblized to where? Within the U.S., as in LA or either the North or South Border?

Or overseas to the middle east as payola for the Qatari jet?

[C Moon]

12. This is so effin crazy! The Rodney King and George Floyd riots were 10x worse than this.

[electricmonk]

14. Yep

I've seen rowdier crowds after a sportsball championship or a spring break get together.

[AverageOldGuy]

13. Now we know why . . .

. . . one of SECDEF Hogsbreath's first actions was to fire all the service Judge Advocate Generals - - - now there is no one to tell him what he is doing is illegal. It was all planned long before Nov 2024.

[artemisia1]

15. Yes, all we need is a bunch of heavily armed and indoctrinated 19-25 year old kids entering into the situation. The idea

of a National Guard is to have LOCAL citizen soldiers to respond. Men -- and women -- from the community, or, at least, same state. This WILL NOT END WELL. Unfortunately, that's the plan...

[ancianita]

16. Vets need to be visible at the front of these protests, and explain how & why the orders are illegal, that

the civilian "national security crisis" is manufactured to turn the military after civilians who the military should be protecting and then joining against this lawless commander and secdef. Otherwise troops become mercenaries in a mercenary military.
