More generally “gun control” is never about controlling the cops, military, MIC, etc. There’s bi-partisan support for the state maintaining its monopoly on violence.

as if this is a bad thing.
oh, sorry, were you still dreaming of starting a civil war with you widdle rifles against, I DUNNO, ARMOR DIVISIONS AND AIR FORCES AND CHEMICAL BIOLOGICAL AND NUCLEAR WEAPONS?
It is if that’s how you think about it. But over time the thinking behind that has changed. Because these types of people are.in our military and they think most military members think like them. By proxy that means they’d be on the side of the “militia”.

Nope. Regardless of your delusions of boogaloo, those people serving in the mil TOOK A FUCKING OATH.
It probably doesn’t mean shit to you, I mean, obviously, but it should matter to them. They voluntarily took an oath to defend the constitution of the US against all enemies foreign and domestic. I know, I took that oath, and no one said “oh but if you want civil war there’s an exception” - because there isn’t.
Traitorous fucks will happen, and they’ll face the consequences.
I was in the military. I took the oath. What I’m saying is, if you don’t think there are MAGAT idiots in the military (a lot of them), please understand they did a threat assessment of military members while Donald Trump was running for President the first time, and decided to make a military wide training specifically to educate us about that oath and remind us who what we took it to defend. So yes. I absolutely do know some people who are all for militia fighting the government who are still military members.
I don’t think you understand just how prevalent this situation is, or just what they would need to do for me to “turn them in” for basically being on the wrong side of the political fence. For one, you’re assuming the person or persons in charge doesn’t feel the same way (chain of command isn’t the kind of thing you just skip because some of them happen to be suspect). Second, they actually have to do something against the UCMJ for me to “turn them in”. Thinking that the government should be overthrown in the event that it over steps is constitutional. Thinking you could overturn a free and legal public election is not constitutional, but it’s also not against the rules.
You can’t turn people in for thinking. Only for acting. You’re kind of coming off as a troll and I’m done with you following me through the thread.

preparing for and accelerating the boogaloo is not.

because that seems pitifully stupid.

then you’re violating your oath by aiding them. AND YOU ARE AIDING THEM BY NOT TURNING THEM IN IF THEY’RE ACTUAL SEDITIOUS GARBAGE.
Why are you aiding seditious garbage? I thought you took your oath seriously.
