Badass video. I actually cheered out loud a couple times.
I agree there's no way in hell our brothers in arms would turn guns on American citizens. Every Marine knows there is no obligation to follow unlawful orders.
I tend to think the same thing. That if our military were ordered against US citizens, they'd look at Washington and say "you fuckin' want us to do WHAT? Against our familes, friends and neighbors? Fuck YOU! Our jobs are to defend them from all enemies, foreign AND DOMESTIC! Guess where politicians like you fall in that description?"
I really believe that our military and LEO's, even though trained to follow orders, will NOT turn on US citizens. Orders are one thing, but orders to murder your own people? Maybe they do that in other countries but I just can't see that happening here, at least not on a large scale. Maybe isolated incidents with troublemakers, but not general "herd 'em all up into the camps" bullshit like what happens in various dictatorships.
I've never understood how dictators like Hitler, Stalin, Saddam, Khadafy, Assad, and how many dozens of others......can obtain so much power like that. Seems to me that people would say "that MF'ers a lunatic, we'd better eliminate that threat right now and do something different."
Ok, you're naive
Go hunt down the "29 palms survey" and you'll see that of the Marines surveyed about a quarter of the said they'd follow orders requiring them to fire on US citizens.
Thankfully a sizable chunk of the US military would take our side, but whether they'd also be flying gunships with night and IR targeting systems or they'd be on the ground with us is yet to be seen.
God Bless the Oathkeepers.

A World Without Guns <- Great Read!
My girl is now mad at me for jumping up and down and cursing loudly at my screen for 15 minutes.
Hope those hajji's enjoy their virgins, they just earned 'em.
Well obviously if your going up against attack helicopters and your on foot....don't go out at night with your RPG.....anyone notice the donkey shit his self. I'd have shit myself way earlier in the clip with that going on all around. Might have looked like a blood trail...........but it ain't.
I felt really bad.
For the donkey's.
Youth is wasted on the young.
Me and Josh have seen some pretty impressive things since being here.
That is all.
Welcome to the exciting world of modern warfare, mofos.
