The oath clearly states you'll follow legal orders of the officers above you. I would like to think when I was in the military I would refuse to follow these illegal orders. In reality I have no idea what I would do. It would be a long legal battle and potentially life ruining event to do the right thing.

Ah hem, refer to him with the respect the office deserves.

It's Mustard Mussolini to you peasant.

This is what the NRA have been waiting for, is it not? Let's just watch them leap into action to safeguard constitutional rights against an oppressive regime.

Any minute now.

Any minute now.

Here they come! Oh, sorry it's a pigeon.

It must be soon.

Hmm...

And they're arresting senators for trying to ask questions. This shits real.

OK. This needs to be said. Not every 2A adherant is a magat or a republican. There are many of us actual leftists that are armed and getting ready to actually fight this shit.

It is time to mobilize for real.

Troops who invade our country and do violence to our people are our enemy, no matter what flag they fly or uniform they wear. Fuck these scum.

when republicans do it, its all performative anyways.

Temporary detainment into permanent detainment.

That was my first thought. Where are all the self-described Libertarians who should be losing their shit over this? They should be in the street screaming "posse comitatus!" at the tops of their lungs.

They're trained and equipped in a way that you are not. I do not expect this to succeed unless you've already convinced them that they want to surrender.
