60. Not so sure about the uniformed military.

And I think that is the primary reason the kkkops have been militarized to the teeth.

The kkkops would gleefully mow the people down without a second thought. I genuinely doubt the military would. I believe that the average soldier/sailor/marine/airman has a pretty solid sense of honor. The kkkops are for the most part a gang of armed goons who will do whatever their masters order them to do; the Mafia is the police business model, omerta and all.
