39. As a Marine I take umbrage at any comparison of any group
Mon Oct 12, 2020, 09:00 AM
Oct 2020

of right-wing militias (read "domestic terrorists" ) to the Corps.

Marines take an oath to protect and defend the Constitution from all enemies, foreign and domestic. I would imagine members of the other armed forces do, too.

The problem is that too few of them have ever read the document to which they swore that oath and even fewer understand said document.

Semper Fi!
