Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Did the National Guard err?

When the National Guard was told to hand over their magazines, were they wrong to do so?
Who ordered it?
Did that person have authority to do so?

Given how they were treated. Did they err?

No

doesn't matter

Probably

The garage thing? Not the worst thing to happen to infantry

Our daughter is in the UT Nat Guard. She was released from the callup yesterday. She said they were each issued 300 rounds. She said that they were sweating whether they would be required to use them against Americans. As it happened, the protests where she was consisted of fewer than 20 people.

Damn, do you think she would have?

I wanna know how long D.C. is going to continue putting them through hell for their stupid false narrative.

How long?

When is the barriers and razor wire war zone going to be taken down?

I frankly think the NG is on the wrong side of the fence. They ought to be outside the war zone encampment, keeping the criminals inside of it.

I’m not up on UCMJ, but that would’ve been a lawful order?
Sworn to in their oath of enlistment

But they were deputized at Capitol police.


Im over my head here but I was just intrigued

Yep.

May be just getting them primed mentally.

Did she question any of her buds as to whether they would carry out orders to kill civilians vs defend the US from all enemies foreign and domestic such as traitors like Biden and Piglosi?

300 rounds?!?

I got more than that rattling around the floor of my pickup.

They missed a fine opportunity to take some criminals into custody until they could be charged with treason. I wouldn't say they erred, just that they missed an opportunity to do some actual good, in accordance with the oath that each member took. I can't hold them accountable for being order-following cowards who can't think for themselves, nor come up with a set of personal principles. That's pretty much all of America.

I figured they called them up because it was the only way to get some people at the inauguration. It's chilling to think they actually considered whether or not they would shoot protesters. I would think there would be nothing to consider especially of you were from a conservative state or background unless someone was shooting at you first.

Look at the military members sentenced to hard time for shooting foreign civilians during a war. Makes one wonder how they could even consider shooting American's. Although I doubt anything will ever happen to the law enforcement person that killed the unarmed protester at the capital.

No one will ever be held accountable for chasing Levoy into an L ambush and then shooting him in the back while his hands were in the air. This is the duplicitous justice system we have today. The government gets away with murdering unarmed conservatives yet they get their feet held to the fire for killing armed leftists.

Glad that she didn't have to find out...

Amazed it was even a question? Orders are order but wtf? I've been. Worried about this scenario for a while.

Would any active military turn their weapons on American Civilians

Pretty obvious that they would.

Read Rock Chuck's post.

Would have had the same effect as the Boston Massacre.

Yes, they would have followed orders.

I wasn't clear. This was at the UT state capitol, not WDC.

Any one happen to notice where Trump invited Nat, Guard troops to stay in his Hotel . The dems are making the troop s sleep in parking garages in the dead of winter.

the difference in a man that loves America and Americans, and the scum that rule our country now.

It's more than I had on me in loaded magazines as a combat load.
