You can have your immunity from lawsuits. It won’t stop the blue shells.

What…? What’s their rationale on simply capitulating like that?

I wholeheartedly agree with regards to the cops and ICE.

But I actually completely disagree on that statement being applied to the NG and Marines.

I’d argue that the armed forced have a rather explicit duty to protect their own fellow citizens as best they can.

And if some dipshit commander orders the marines or CANG to actually open fire on US civilians, I really do think that the E4 mafia might have something to say about that, and that the commissioned officers and cops and ICE fascists might very quickly find themselves staring down the barrels of the deployed troops.

Put another way: if active duty troops are ordered to fire on unarmed protesters, I would not at all be shocked if the enlisted and noncoms refuse the orders and mutiny, up to and including fragging the officers who gave the orders if they keep pushing.

Orangeboi et al seem to think the troops are robots. They’re absolutely not.

Also, marines tend to have very good CQB training. And, you know, the rest of their platoon - or at least, fireteam - backing them up.

Definitely fire

It’s called fragging

Nice

I have a friend whose mother took a LOT of it and permanently fucked up her heart and liver. Can’t walk more than 25 feet without getting winded. They have to periodically search her cabinets because she still believes that idiocy and tries to take it if she can find it.

In Texas…? Where the state government flagrantly and theatrically displays full-throated enthusiasm for the worst aspects of the current federal regime? The fuck are you smoking my guy?
