-We've had this discussion before on rebellion/revolution and what will the troops, our brothers and sisters, do. I, like y'all, do not have the answer.
-But, as discussed before, I, like y'all, do have a history. At kent State our brothers killed our sisters, and we all suffered through the nightmare.
-In the early 70's, I personally trained an Army unit of 200 soldiers to go to Washington DC and protect it from demonstrators. Use of violent force was a final option. In a stressful training situation, I had one soldier bayonet another soldier who was acting as a protester. I was surprised and shocked at how easy it was to turn a citizen-soldier against a citizen.
-Hopefully, we will not have to see that again.
