If martial law happens I will fire on US civilans if ordered to. When martial law is implemented it is for your own good and those who get in my way will see the pointy end of my 5.56 mm round coming at them at a high rate of speed. We in the military are in on the NWO conspiracy. Once martial law has been succesfully implemented and all uncoopertive civilans have been taken care of we will be highly rewarded for our service.

Civilians should obey the soon to be new law of the land and surrender quitely. It is for your own protection. Resistance is futile.


Of course none of that is true, but it is probably the only thing most of you will accept as the truth.

Your only reward will be death by our citizens.

Soldiers would barely need to be used. They'd probably only be used for support roles to the local police and deputies that would do the vast majority of the dirty work.

Local police and deputies would first have to move there families to a safe location. safe where and who would protect them.
Just look a New Orleans and how many police officers took there families and just left.

Then in the aftermath they would be hated so much that they would have targets painted on there backs.
In most areas of the US the head sheriff in each county is elected.
do you think they would be re-elected.
city cops . what city counsel would survive letting there city police department do the dirty work.

In the town i live in one of the city counsel member is also the biggest gun store owner in town. and if he let the police department do something like that he would be run out of town.

Plus there homes would be the first targets of the resistance and all they would come back to would be ashes.

Then how many police departments have fortified building.

How many patrol cars have spike proof tires. The resistance can make spike strips to.

How many ham radio operators are there out there could jam all the police radio bands.

The way a resistance movement could operate and get even are endless.

No the government would have to use troops.

Charming video....

I have no doubt the troops would follow orders and blast us to eternity if so ordered! I will never forget seeing General Honore having to remind the troops these were American citizens and to treat the people of NO with kindness. Nope...they will do just what they are trained to do....KILL!

Haven't had a chance to read other posts, So I can only answer the OP.

I asked my friend, a marine that just returned from Iraq a few months ago, the same exact question. Basically what I took from his answer was this:

If they were called upon, of course they would do what they were required. But when it comes to force, or shooting or what not, it just depends on the situation. It also depends on the reason for the protest or whatever situation, and that the ones that take issues way to far would be the ones that get targeted. He specifically said No, most of the guys he knows wouldn't just open fire, or hit someone. But if they were threatened, or a protester got up in their face forcefully, then heck yes, he's gonna put that person in their place. He also mentioned that they would absolutely have each others backs.

So pretty much, don't start stuff, and neither will we, is what I took from his statement. I don't know what they would do if they truly felt the people were right.

I think that we can't so that troops will or wont. It must be dealt with by the individuals.
Many troops are patriotic, Constitution honering Americans who could never do that. But many troops would just do what they're told to do.
Of course, that is when you have to think of the purpose behind Obama's Civilian Defense Force that is promised to be "as equally equiped and powerful" as the U.S. Military. Maybe they are a back-up plan for when Martial Law is declared and the US Military wont enforce it on citizens.
Perhaps a war between government soldiers and US Soldiers?
