JFJ, You missunderstood, I did not say invade I said invited and that makes all the difference does it not.
And again why would American servicemen and women be any differnt than all the others who have commited crimes against the people.
And another example, look at the increase in Police brutality, missuse of tasers etc. that is a classic indication of what is to come.
If ML comes its sounds like its going to be a pushover for the perps. All the sheeple believing no one will harm them because they trust the system so much.
Hand over your guns, you homes, your families, your freedom and liberty, we don't want your minds we already control those.

I think in the right context a trained soldier in any of the US armed forces could and would fire on everyday citizens. All it would take is for the higher command to give bad intel which paints the targets as hostile(WACO). You're probably thinking "Yeah, but if I saw an unarmed kid I would know better" well what do our soldiers think when they see an eight year old Iraqi boy running towards there position given all the suicide bombings and youthful opposition they face day to day. My point is most military who have done time in Iraq are already conditioned to accept an unassuming civilian as a possible threat. If things get any worse there could easily be an uprising of sorts here and this would be perfect for those in power to label us, all of us, as possible terrorist/traitors/threats.

Published: Saturday, February 23, 2008 Canada and the U.S. have signed an agreement that paves the way for the militaries from either nation to send troops across each other's borders during an emergency, Canada-U.S. pact allows cross-border military activity Sec. 1042 of the Act, "Use of the Armed Forces in Major Public Emergencies," effectively overturns what is known as posse comitatus, a law, passed in 1878, that prohibits the use of the regular military within the U.S. Borders.

Should doctors be allowed to play God? In the case of a flu pandemic — yes, say government officials in a new report. Doctors know some patients needing lifesaving care won't get it in a flu pandemic or other disaster. The gut-wrenching dilemma will be deciding who to let die. Who will die in the event of a pandemic? The very old, seriously hurt, severely burned and those with severe dementia, according to an influential group of physicians. The group has drafted a grimly specific list of recommendations for which patients wouldn't be treated. www.foxnews.com...

I just laugh at all the people saying no Marine would ever fire on US citizens. Anyone believing that has absolutely zero knowledge of history.
