The bad thing is that there will always be a small percentage of military that WILL follow orders to attack/detain Americans.
Lets estimate 20 out of 100 say they will follow any order. Those that say they will are taken aside and trained to be an army against the US. Combine that with foreign forces (such as UN officers for instance) and you've got a nasty little group that are in it for themselves. That small portion that answered yes are probably just ignorant and "zey vill follow ze orderz comrade."
Well, ignorant or just wanting a check. Essentially people with Wall Street mentality who will sell out the human race for a bonus check.
Sure, people don't believe things like this will happen. I'm also sure most Americans never thought a law could be put forth that destroys The Bill of Rights and was approved by over 90 members who are supposed to be there to *protect* those rights.
And if it doesn't get vetoed there will still be many, many sheeple (such as the ones who support the TSA as well as warrantless searches of your car during checkpoint stops) who will keep their brain turned off and thank their slave masters for "keeping them safe by taking away our rights and turning American citizens into the enemy.
LOL...I hear your point, honestly I do....there will always be a small portion that will blindly follow......However, in this situation, think about your own point.....20 of 100.....Okay, so 1 for 1, they all have roughly the same training and gear. So you have an Army company, roughly 100 troopers....They receive an order, 20 follow through, that is 80 saying 'No'......my money is on the 80.
