But a Marine in bargain-bin decade-old hardware will absolutely walk straight up the barrel of a “less-lethal” loaded rifle and physically manhandle the cop in luxury fascist tech who thinks <40 hours of range time means they’re ready for combat.
You’re letting your fantasies escape through your skull holes, comrade. The military is going to point their guns, just as the cops next to them will be, at the people protesting the kidnapping of their neighbors by the gestapo.
I’m not holding my breath, but I hope our military is as patriotic as the South Koreans were when martial law was declared last year.
I’m not fantasizing about anything. I’m not expecting them to actually do the right thing, I just hope they do. We’re in unprecedented territory here. This could turn into another South Korea, or it could be another Boston Massacre. Only time will tell.
But in the hypothetical context of marine vs cop as suggested in the comment I was responding to, marine wins.
