Worst case scenario.....what do you think would happen......I want to hear it...

Good post, William. Don't know if ya'll know this or not, but, when the war of the States began, the Marine Corps split. Almost all the Officers fought for the North and most of the Enlisted went to the South. The only time in the Corps History that a Marine unit surrendered, was in the Civil War. A Northern Marine unit surrendered to a Southern Marine unit.......just saying....

Billy, those northern Marines didn't have a chance against Southern Marines. Everyone knows the boys from the south are badasss and sure know how to fight (dirty).

anyone watch Tucker Carlson last night??? The basic topic was pretty much about this subject... seems like many of the "flag officers" will do what is "politically correct", and the junior officers and enlisted will "uphold their oath to the constitution"... not the first time I have heard this... a good friend and retired Army colonel (now deceased) told me that under Obozo, the "flag ranks" were being screened, and that those that would uphold their oath were being weeded out in favor of those that would follow the CIC orders under any circumstances... topic at that time was a willingness for an officer to order his troops to violate the "posse comitatus act" and to fire on the civilian population... another former Army officer and Police Helicopter Pilot told me at that same time, that civilian police helo pilots were being trained by DOD in how to use their choppers as gunships to fire on and control rioting civilians... the far left is doing everything possible to gain influence and control of the military so they can have some solid backing when the time comes to "overthrow" the government that removes their power, and to institute a "new socialist order"... and we all KNOW exactly where THAT particular door leads....

I think that when push comes to shove, when we're backed against the wall....you will see Guns and Patriots coming out of the wood-work. Texas alone has enough Military Veterans with weapons to make up the 4th largest Army in the World. That's just in one State. This is a fact.

I believe that, Billy---but the question of what the MILITARY would do? That is still tough to answer, maybe impossible to guess at this point. But you are absolutely right about civilians. It's happened before when they had enough.

biggest problem those "former military" now civilians will have is ORGANIZATION... individually, they will not amount to much... only if they unite and present a united front will they be able to accomplish anything... unfortunately for us, if the active military sides with the left, we would be in for a long, involved guerrilla conflict, and just what the hell do you think that the Chinese, Russians, and MUSLIMS will be doing???? Probably tripping all over each other trying to be the first to invade us for our natural resources....

Even now, the NUMBERS of azzhats out there demonstrating, is woefully small------the news makes it seem like all of America is on fire, and it is not. Focus on a few azzhats, even hundreds, that still does not mean most of the country is in trouble.

These people need to be stopped, arrested, imprisoned, and we need to focus on domestic terrorism, arrest those responsible, keep them in cells, and move on. But we have the laws in force now, when shall we enforce those laws?? What does it take to get people to crack down on domestic terrorism?

LEADERSHIP Dave, LEADERSHIP... something that is woefully lacking in each and every one of those cities that are "on fire".... the leadership need not come from the Governor, Mayor, or city council, it could most appropriately come from the Chief of Police (if such is a real COP, and not a political hack) who could start by placing said Mayor, City Council Members, and DA UNDER ARREST for failing to perform their duties and the resulting inaction causing deaths and destruction of property valued in MILLIONS of dollars... then mobilize his officers to surround, contain, and NEUTRALIZE these so called "peaceful protestors" that are in fact domestic terrorists and LOOTERS... since in most states, looters can be "shot on sight", it won't take but a few dead looters to quickly put an end to the BS once and for all... as for the rest, hold them responsible for the damages ... jail them on a chain gang until they have repaired the damage that they created....

the biggest task will be to remove and incarcerate the TRUE instigators of this violence... the likes of SOROS, the DNC, and certain members of the democratic party, currently holding office as both representatives and senators.... those need to be "outed", TRIED and EXECUTED for treason, for that is exactly what they have committed... and will continue to commit in their unceasing efforts to successfully overthrow the duly elected president and government of this country....

The few folks who have the true power to put an end to this---need BACKBONE

Instead of stiffening their spine, they are RETIRING, giving up the JOB, taking the MONEY and leaving the area as fast as they can, like rats leaving a sinking ship.....

President Trump is smart to let these burning cities continue like they are-----to emphasize the need for law and order, come November 3rd

[USMC 2571]

If he steps in now, he is a Nazi to some. Sit back, let them self-destruct, THEN get reelected THEN step in--hard.

[Mongoose]

I agree, Dave. Let these azz wipes keep on with their destructive venue. When it starts to spread into residential areas, people will finally wake up and do something....

[oldtop]

as it is, a lot of folks are being "turned off" by these so called "peaceful protests"... the only ones in favor of them are the dumbed down college kids and high school drop-outs.... let them continue, every riot creates more TRUMP supporters than it does Biden livers....
