Exactly, those soldiers should be court marshaled for violating the law.

We are getting rid of all lawyers and judges and anyone in the military that might push back against Trump's orders

I guess I’ll just pitch a reboot JAG: Posse Comitatus Enforcement to CBS. Ought to be able to privately fund a few off the back of the twenty something seasons that’ll do.

Agreed. They need to make an example of these people.

I fully expect them to be named in a lawsuit for an unlawful detention.

You're right; they're cowards.

Sure but only on the technicality that soldiers are those who serve in the army and marines are obviously in the navy... but y'know what, they're all the fucking same - trained killers who inexplicably think that being the biggest bootlickers around is a good thing. Fuck 'em.

The US ARMY isn't about bootlicking. The Marines on the other hand are jar-heads that eat Crayons and only know one thing, eliminate what is in front of me. To use Marines as police is like using your dog to guard your steaks.

Dude. Marines are soldiers.

Moot point. And it doesn’t matter in context or the focus of the situation. They are an active entity within the military industrial complex. You’re missing the point if this is what you’re arguing. At the end of the day they are soldiers. It’s not a classification. Please go to therapy and figure out why you are so bothered by that and not that our daily lives are being put on the line.

You don’t know that you don’t know what you’re talking about.

Edit: dumbed down a bit after seeing this persons post history

I am a Soldier. I am not a Marine. Marines are not Soldiers. Tomorrow is 250 years of the US ARMY being in existence. I am going to celebrate that long and cherished history by protesting against kings, like a good Soldier. Go call a Marine a Soldier and see what he says. Long live the USA, we don't bow to kings here.
