Disregard all rules, Get this to anyone you know in the US military now
A tweet states that National Guard or Active Duty military ordered to violate constitutional rights can call the GI Rights Hotline for support, with the number 1-877-447-4487 provided.
Don’t blame the soldiers. Blame the politicians.
I went to Afghanistan. Does that mean that the war is my fault?
Newsom has the same power to control the situation as much as Trump. Both sides pander to their base.
Also, fuck Bush for extending our tour just for more soldiers to die.
I can understand deporting violent criminals. But people who are contributing to society in a positive way? Seems counterproductive to the mission of protecting communities.
Illegal immigration is still a crime, however. People who arent a criminal after that should be given a second chance if they’re productive members of society.
Oh well.
Simply being ordered to Kent State wasn’t the soldiers fault.
The ones antagonizing students and eventually pulling triggers though?
There’s also no evidence that undocumented people are any more violent than current citizens. Many are bigger contributors to our society.
Also, blame the politicians? Oh, I’d also blame your fellow soldiers and neighbors since many VOTED FOR THIS.
If the protestors engage the national guard soldiers? May God help both of them. I know the nasty guard won’t shoot unless their lives are threatened, so I hope no one does.
The State is deploying National Guard troops on community members to defend ICE. I said nothing about assigning blame to anyone, but now that you mentioned it, I will emphatically blame National Guard members who follow this disgusting order. Otherwise, I don’t care about assigning blame to anyone at the moment.
“Illegal immigration” actually isn’t a crime, it’s a civil infraction — like a speeding ticket.
It depends. No, the war isn’t your fault. These troops in California being commandeered by the feds aren’t immediately the bad guys.
But if they’re told to shoot at a bunch of protesters, and then they do, well then they’re suddenly the bad guy.
Yeah if the Boston massacre was enough so would this be.
