What guns? Hard times... I had to sell them all. Then a one armed burglar came along and stole the last one I had hidden. There aren't any guns here. Sorry....
There are five major units in the 2-136 CAB: Headquarters and Headquarters Company in Moorhead and Fergus Falls; A Company in Bemidji and Detroit Lakes; B Company in Crookston and Thief River Falls
Glancing at her briefly one Soldier responded, “Just training Ma’am. Joining up with another patrol at the rally point.” Not accepting this as a reasonable answer to her inquiry, Magge went on, “Oh, ok. What are you training on the streets of town for exactly?” At that the young soldier replied, “To be honest ma’am, I don’t know.”

If people think the U.S. soldiers will fire on American citizens like the chinnese army did.Or like in other countries they are crazy.Even the syrian soldiers are deserting.The american soldiers will not fire on their own people for the greater part.I feel secure by the mentality of American soldiers,and their oath to up hold the constitution of the U.S.A.

And arguing from a point of authority is a fallacy. Though I respect your position here you are trying to convey what you experienced as a soldier is systemic and widespread to others. There are some who were in the military who never saw a rifle that was loaded with live rounds and only trained with "dummy" weapons. Your experience doesn't speak for all.
