Again, if the options are deploy against US citizens on US soil or disciplinary actions and they don't pick disciplinary actions fuck 'em. What, are we supposed to say "Don't blame them, I'm sure they don't want to be shooting Americans, they just don't have any choice" once they start doing that?
Remember, these are the folks that join up to serve their state - often in disasters. Their governors sent them on this escapade. Don’t blame the troops.
They went. I get things would be very hard for them if they refused to go, but they went. The governors, who I also blame, said 'go deploy against US citizens on US soil' and they went. And I'm supposed to support them? I'm supposed to feel bad for them? C'mon.
I’m not saying feel bad for them - just that ICE or the FBI would be a more appropriate target for the March of the Empire.
