Appears to me to be hearsay & nothing more. Obama is to smart (I hate to admit) to stir up controversy be asking this question. The military is required to follow lawful orders. I was involved in the military during the anti-war demonstrations during the Vietnam fiasco. We had rounds loaded & were prepared to fire if necessary. Fortunately, tear gas was all that was usually needed.

Unfortunately, nothing new there if one were to study American history. This is what the Founding Fathers wanted from the get go it just took them two hundred years to get here. The same arguments made today are the same arguments made in 1787. The stage is the same just the actors have changed.

It was the basis for Jefferson's fear of a standing army.

remember what Wilson did to WWI vets? ? He sent the Army after them when they were marching in Washington for relief led, I believe, by Patton. No it was Gen Douglas MacArthur who led that..

I can think of more people then not that should be fired on. Interesting comment from you. The numbers of the last election tend to indicate those I would agree with you on, but I don't believe those are the ones the resident of the whitehouse has in mind. I don't know who you were referring to. He should be asking them if they will fire on their retired brothers and sisters in arms. They're (you're) the ones this government seems to be worried more about than anyone else.
We may know the time Ben Carson lied, but does anyone know the time Hillary Clinton told the truth?

And what about Kent state. If lots of people were throwing bricks and and rocks at you and you had a loaded gun would you fire on them? Until you've been hit with bricks, you can't answer that question. I can. Mark
