Gunning them down would be barbaric, cruel, heartless and definitely not a Christian thing to do.
Did I say “would be” there? Sorry, “will be” is more accurate.
I hope somebody finds a better way out of this mess, and there are lots of options of varying creativity being floated, but I have a bad feeling here. We are about to see history written, in big red letters.
no american president or commander would order the use of lethal force against unarmed civilians
We are about to see history written.
I think we are about to see some surprises.
Although not as surprised as the marchers will be.
I could see micro-chipping everyone of them and sending them
to Sanctuary cities in California.
You don’t have to gun them all down, nor will we. IMO, here’s how we should handle it... Put two or three rows of men with batons and shields up front opposite the mob, with orders to beat them back if they try to force their way into the United States. I know that’s not the usual weaponry for soldiers, but they can adapt. Behind that phalanx of club wielding troops, have a row of senior NCOs, armed with loaded rifles, ready to go. If the mob continues or becomes too violent and will not cease and desist, an officer or the most senior NCO will then order the other riflemen to fire one volley at the most aggressive members of the mob, shoot to kill, with no undue concern about collateral damage; they shouldn’t have been where they were. Repeat if necessary. But these are civilians and I don’t believe it would be necessary. The United States would be completely within its rights to do that, imo.
