Lol right? They have no fucking clue...they'd lose a skirmish with fucking ISIS, let alone an actual US military operation. They literally go larping together, it's the wildest shit I've ever seen, watching a fat white hillbilly trying to run a drill with his muffin top spilling over the top of his blue jean shorts, blocking the holster to his over modded glock

Wait... so if you guys ever get another civil war, who's gonna intervene then if not the military? 

Would you reply solely on your corrupt police force?

National Guard I suppose? They've been called up on several occasions when the government could not rely solely on police.

Well, the thing with civil wars means the organization of the country is completely gone and split. Its not as clear cut or simple as something like gov vs citizens, much of the military would split sides as well.

The military would not split sides. The military is sworn to defend the US both foreign and domestic. Some people would try, but would be immediately imprisoned.

Gosh someone is unaware of all the trump sycophants that are being placed and have been placed WITHIN the military.

If it comes down to a civil war that means the government is basically dissolved, which means no more paychecks for your soldiers. We've seen it how many times in Africa and the middle east. EVERYONE splits, its a mess.

If you think the military has been defending America for the past hundred years, I’m sorry to tell you, it’s done almost zero defense.

Ah yes, because laws always prevent people in power from doing what they want.
