“Why are you F’ing idiots comparing the actions out our noble warriors in Iraq to taking illegal and unconstitutional actions against the American people...which they would never do?” TG
Please see the New Orleans video. National guard was used in gun confiscation.
Also see the history of the “bonus marchers.” General MacArthur led the burning out of veterans from their camps in DC.
All these men, the bonus marchers, wanted could have easily been solved with a promissory note, which they could use to get a loan.
MacArthur’s career...well, let’s just say it did not suffer.
I think as recently as Waco the Army loaned tanks (not sure about personnel) to the FBI to carry out the deadly final raid.
That said, I have the utmost respect for the US armed forces. They get put in very difficult positions, and their first instinct is to do as they are ordered. They will be put in a very difficult moral dilemma.
“Also see the history of the “bonus marchers.” General MacArthur led the burning out of veterans from their camps in DC.”
That’s NOT what happened. Thousands of commies infiltrated the Bonus March. When the soldiers got to DC, the commie red flag wavers broke off and took over buildings under construction in DC. The DC cops tried to evict the commies, and they were met with bottles, rocks and gunfire. At least one cop died and many were injured.
MacArthur, Eisenhower and Patton led the troops to disgorge the commies.
The 1930s was a violent period where commie immigrants from Europe, who were invited in by Woodrow KKK Wilson, tried to ignite a commie revolution in America.
