Troops And Marines Deeply Troubled By L.A. Deployment; "Morale Is Not Great"

[JoeB131]

The fact remains that Trump won the popular vote, all of the battleground States and the Electoral College. The voters number one issue was the border. They knew that Kamala had promised more of the same and that Trump promised to secure the border. That was the race right there.

More people voted against him and even more stayed home.

That's not a mandate. That's people just kind of giving up.

 

[mudwhistle]

Whether they like it or not, orders are orders.

I'll admit, this isn't what they signed up for.

The problem with using the National Guard for Civil Disturbance is that their training for it is very limited. When I was in the ILARNG a lifetime ago, we spent one day a year training for Civil Disturbance, usually the December weekend when we brought in our families to show them what we did on Weekends.

The Guard's biggest fear is that some idiot might make the same mistake that was made at Kent State. No one wants THAT to ever happen again.

The real problem in LA is the LAPD using excessive force, which has resulted in some protestors resorting to violence.

If they're troubled....it's only because their pussies are sore from their buddy corn-holing them all night.

I already said I'm not a tRumpling.

Try again.

No, you are WORSE.

Dumbass.

California national guards troops and marines deployed to Los Angeles to help restore order after days of protest against the Trump administration have told friends and family members they are deeply unhappy about the assignment and worry their only meaningful role will be as pawns in a political battle they do not want to join.

That farce by Taco Man at Fort Liberty fooled nobody.

Oh shut up!!! You get a couple of DEI's still in the military and you think all of the military is with you. This makes up probably less than 2% of the military. Nobody is fooled by these and they will be receiving their court martials soon. Good riddance. Military recruiting is skyrocketing because of who is President.

More people voted against him and even more stayed home.

That's not a mandate. That's people just kind of giving up.

Won the popular vote, won every battleground State and won the Electoral College going away. That's a mandate.

 

[drudge X]

I can tell leftists this much.

The troops morale is MUCH higher now than when Biden made the troops sleep in parking garages without proper bedding with cold pizza for meals.

BTW, recruitment is stellar under Trump.

 

[Care4all]

Maybe California shouldn't embrace the efforts of foreign governments to undermine the United States.

You have the most legal immigrants in the world, why would your government allow millions to enter illegally? It was the worst policy during Bidens term and I repeated this often. Even worse than the I.R.A which is really saying something since that was the genesis of global inflation.

California is openly violating federal law. These marines are upholding these laws and protecting American citizens.

Trump ran on tariffs, confronting unfair trade/China, and, deporting illegal citizens. The results of that election determine policy, that's how free nations work.

Quotas for legal immigrants were cut back during Trump's first term...making it harder to come here legally. Those quota caps need to be higher, just to fill our holes.

Msn

Jesus h
Fucking boomer an retards source for "news"

Why not salon lol

 

[wamose]

It's a soldier's job to protect their country against the forces of evil. They should be proud to be helping to put down a revolution.

 

[martybegan]

Did the President call the governor and tell him he was going to inject himself in to the situation and federalize the State's National guard?

Is that required under Title 10? All it requires is notification of the federalization.

 

[Lesh]

You believe that shit's going to make a difference?


What if they're lying to the liberal media? There's no law against that, is there? If they are family or friends of the jarheads, they can say whatever they want, maybe promote their GoFundMe account. Wake the fuck up!

No law?

[martybegan]

If you had ever served, you would know active duty service members are not allowed to speak publicly about political matters unless it is in their job description.

The pawns in L.A. have no such job description.

But there is nothing to stop their family members and friends speaking for them.

Or stopping groups from making shit up like leftists always do.

 

[martybegan]

.

martybegan, have you had a conversation with g5000 in which you shared your Military history?

If not, then he/she/it is stalking/doxxing you?




.

I haven't served, nor have I ever claimed to have.

 

[martybegan]

Except the jurisdiction didn't request them.

That isn't required under Title 10, as shown in Little Rock and Alabama during the civil rights movement.

 

[The Duke]

Yeah, that's guy's done.

Making our armed forces an enemy against citizens for political show or for most any reason, is just plain wrong, and illegal.

Law and order and sovereignty are necessary to have a successful country.
If a few citizens want to be against the vast majority of us, they can fuck right the hell off. Democracy, bitch!
I know a lot of things about Marines, and I ain't sayin' ary a one of them right here right now. They're American soldiers.

 

[citygator]

One guy who's no longer on active duty.

Yawn.

If he were on duty you would call for his firing. If he is retired, you discount his opinion. You might be biased, toad.

I have an opinion which you don't like, and for you twats that's a capital crime.

[martybegan]

Link?>

Why do I have to link my opinion of the situation, or my opinion of your viewpoints?

Unlike the left I don't parade my opinions around as facts.

It's pretty obvious you were not in the US military during the Viet Nam war. The military may be a little more gung ho but reflect the public's attitude. The difference here is that today's forces are considered "volunteer" instead of drafted. How many would volunteer if we weren't in an economic downward spiral may be called into question, just as their commitment to another war may be.
