If you think the military, both regular, and national guard, won't follow orders to confiscate guns, or round people up, I think you're wearing rose colored glasses. And looking farther back, in the 90's, let's not forget the 29 Palms Marine Base survey of combat Marines....the grunts on the ground that do the killing and breaking of stuff. A significant minority of those folks said they'd grab up guns from Americans if ordered to do so. https://jpfo.org/articles-assd/29palms-mcmanus.htm Does anyone believe that there would be a smaller percentage of Marines now that would agree to do such a thing? Recruiting, indoctrination, and running out officers that won't toe the line has been happening at least since Obama captured the presidency, maybe longer. |

I'm telling you, I've been directly serving in the armed forces (USAF) for almost 30 years now, and when this conversation comes up about mass confiscation, the answer is nearly identical across all branches. The percentage of active duty folks that WOULD obey that order is in the single digits (probably 2%). I challenge anyone to ask. If you see someone in uniform, ask them directly if they would enforce a nationally ordered gun grab. I bet you I know the answer. |

The same claim was made about police and we've seen how that has played out. Police do as they are told or DON'T do anything because they are told not to. The US military will be used against citizens and I have 100% confidence that anyone refusing the order, will be dealt with swiftly. If a civil war...I mean the real deal, not a WalMart fire...were to start, I absolutely believe Biden's handlers will turn the military loose on us. |

No, I have not. I have enough friends that have. Marines, Air Force, Navy.
Those discussions aren't pretty. While they may not have personally taken action against citizens, EVERY one of them could name someone that would. Rather anecdotal, but no less unsettling. |

A portion of the people I worked with/ for/ supervised over that time frame would gleefully arrest or kill for the leftist government( or any government paying their check). I avoid contact with any arm of the government when possible. |

The bottom line:
The Bidens took in $30 million from foreign adversaries around the world. The Bidens can't say what they did to receive the money. The Bidens have lied directly to the American people about the business schemes. And Biden is involved an compromised. - Rep James Comer ( |

BUT, the military is very different than just four years ago, and I believe the number would be much higher given the culture and objectives of those who are now in charge of The DOD. I hope I am wrong,,, |

I will say that my scope is also fairly localized and probably only represents 12-15% of the DOD I've been exposed to in my 30ish years. I do know that most would not have to make that decision until they were staring down the barrels of those who refuse to be disarmed. Until that day, this is all speculation on both parts. And if it ever happens, that will be a VERY sad time. |
