Your analysis is ignorant.
The hero has come foreward, but you can’t be bothered to pay attention. He isn’t a general (few heroes are, and the ones that were are dead) and he has been vocal.

Look on the bright side, when they start shooting, we get to shoot back. I think we will win. If not, we will at least have had some fun.

Yes, he did, and he burned women and children to death in the church basement. He also ordered the straifing of farm wagons full of excaping refuges leaving Kosovo.
He would be Obama’s kind of guy.

At Waco, not only did they shoot first, but they were the only ones to shoot, but it didn’t help.
The American people are terminally stupid.

Name one officer who has been asked if they will fire upon US citizens.

everyone please keep the following in mind when reading this article, there are about 1.6 million men and women in uniform, there are about 18 million deer hunters in America, so they are out numbered.

Basil’s eyes are open, unfortunately you can apparently type blind.
You have no idea what you’re talking about.

Then what happened at Waco?
The Davidians never fired a shot, even though it was reported by the schmuck mediots that they were heavily armed.

Before and during the Revolutionary War, the “Crown” had become terribly abusive to the colonists; seemingly not even deeming them to be human beings much less citizens. I guess it’s true we can’t know who’s capable of what sorts of excesses that strain the human being’s capacity to endure it. So, there’s no way to predict anything; am just hoping they’ll stay “bizzy” with “bizzy work” enough so that their time flies and they don’t become bored.

Many years ago, when I was active duty, we were given a questionnaire and one of the questions was “would you fire on U.S. citizens if ordered” or words to that effect. This was under Carter. I believe they received a resounding NO. This is only my speculation from conversations with others. There were a few that said they would kill anyone they were told to. Generally your moron type that was not very good at their job nor anything else but swilling booze any chance they had. Speaking with active duty and newly released military ( most with combat experience)nothing has changed. Maybe a few more morons. I think any officer that ordered troops to fire might feel the sting himself!

You need to pay much more attention to Oliver North.
Or buy a DVD of Pollyanna, or Mary Poppins.

From Article:
I have just been informed by a former senior military leader that Obama is using a new litmus test in determining who will stay and who must go in his military leaders. Get ready to explode folks. The new litmus test of leadership in the military is if they will fire on US citizens or not. Those who will not are being removed. -

Thanks, GOPJ.

Wasn’t the title of the old one “combat arms survey “?
I remember the stink it stirred up.... and that was d@m close to twenty years ago!

Or 3) The thugs got to him, threatened his family... Which begs the question that I've been asking for a few years now.
How can a General in the most powerful army in the world be cowered into submission by some SEIU union thug?
Why wouldn't that General have access to counter-insurgency special operations personnel to go to that SEIU thug and give back x 10 the threat the thug threatened?
Do we really have a paper tiger military?
