That said.. Many in the Civil war chose to fire on civilians The majority of the Maryland Legislature was arrested and put in jail by the Army so they couldn't vote on secession. The citizens demonstrated against this in Baltimore and many were killed by Union soldiers. So don't think it won't happen. Many in the military believe in blind obedience...as do many police officers....as they are taught. Duty above honor?? Hopefully not...and hopefully we won't have to find out. But at this point it don't look good for the good guys. Way it looks now we're gonna get Nobamacare by the end of the month. If we do I hope we can get the congress and others in the gummit to have to live with what they give us. How do ya think that would float??
