When do we get to the point where our military says NO WE WILL NOT??? Can it be now please?
Any military that are actively down there in CA are dishonoring our country. Disgraceful! What is more important — doing what is right and standing up to dictatorship as the constitution says you should, or sucking an old fucks crusty dick???
If there is at least one national guard who has family in the LA area, you are acting hostile to a fellow guards family. The president of the United States doesn’t give a fuck about you, or your brothers or their family. Do the right thing.
Stop paying taxes. Let miller figure out how to pay for his stupid ideas for his stupid military.
The entire extent of the planning is “Troops go in. Troops shoot protesters.”
It’s very easy to just tell them to get a hotel and they’ll be reimbursed or just bulk order all the rooms in a couple hotels. The national guard troops along the border in their pretend mission do that, they all just stay at a hotel.
Multiple hotels have yold them to go fuck themselves.
I imagine they all have some idea what the people of the city will do to them if they quarter the enemy.
I’d imagine they get a lot more notice though.
This is not only incorrect, it is just plain unfair…
They are supposed to shoot TV reporters too. And, well, anybody really. Not just protesters.I think the ones doing that were LAPD.
The army tends to have much better discipline.
Not always, but certainly compared to American police, who don’t seem to have any.
army has better discipline
Yeah. Bar is so deep it’s frozen, but yeah.
Enjoy the floor, Nazi fuckers. You deserve to sleep in a place much much lower than that
TACO at it again!
In before “We are asking all patriotic Americans to open their homes to our brave soldiers restoring order to the unlawful Democrat hellhole that is Los Angeles!”
https://constitution.congress.gov/constitution/amendment-3/
Third Amendment
No Soldier shall, in time of peace be quartered in any house, without the consent of the Owner, nor in time of war, but in a manner to be prescribed by law.
Congress will declare a war on liberals. Honestly the founding fathers left that one way too open ended.
It’s like Trump broke all the ten commandments and now he’s trying to break all the Amendments.
Aaahhww, you still believe trump would care about the constitution? He’s wiped his ass with that more times than I care to remember
honestly if trump violated the fucking third amendment I’d be kind of impressed. at this point which amendment in the bill of rights hasn’t he violated?
Maybe the 7th?
To be fair, asking for civilians to help place them isn’t a Constitutional violation, forcing them to do so is.
Either way it’s ridiculous and already well past the line of bullshit, bit that wouldn’t be a crime at all.
Don’t care. Name and shame every one of these people following illegal orders, at the very least.
And anyone who offers them a bed or a meal.
Unless that meal is poorly prepared and they get sick.
“Go stand around” is much different than “shoot to kill”
Doesn’t matter. They shouldn’t be there at all.
Unconstitutional is unconstitutional. There is no grey area here.
Hmm, so the felon in charge is making nat.guard into unhoused persons. smh.
A lot of these guys are being pulled from full time jobs and they don’t get paid very much as a national guardsman anyway. This is horrible what they’re doing to them too.
They are not getting paid anything in this case. Usually they get paid by the state when doing work there, but since they were federalized they are under federal juridistion now and won’t get paid by the state for deployment. And Trump isn’t providing federal funds, hence them sleeping on the floor, having to pay for food themselves, using their own equipment.
That’s simply not true. They get payed the same rate as an active duty soldier while federalized, based on their rank and service time. The sleeping on the floor of the ICE detention center is because there is not a space for them in the city.
These are mostly teenagers living on the edge anyway, or they wouldn’t be in the National Guard. This is so not cool.
That could work to our advantage. Piss them off enough until they lay down arms and walk off the job.
Three tenets to live by:
- Don’t fuck with a (wo)man’s wallet
- Don’t fuck with a (wo)man’s family
- Don’t fuck with a (wo)man’s food
~Edit: in my defense, I just finished watching David Tenant be the 10th Doctor, and the speeling is stuck in my head.~
“tenets” … I thought you were giving me housing advice.
Ha! Thanks. Updated.
There’s a running joke in the military that field exercises train you for when you separate and become homeless.
he is planning to do this in his parade too.
I was wondering how he was going to speed run the bill of rights but I think I see the path now.
nah that’s just how soldiers are, they grab sacktime on any surface, great reason not to help quarter them
the problem is that they deployed soldiers against civilians in a US city
Yeah this isn’t that bad. When I was in the Marines you catch sleep where ever or when ever you can. I’ve slept on so many different floors and types of ground. You get used to it honestly.
Ive met airmen who can sleep standing up, its genuinely impressive.
Looking at traffic and road closures on Maps, 2000 NG are mobilized to watch a few miles of freeway going into the city. The protests are only blocking one side of the freeway and anyone can leave. What a massive over reaction.
And those troops are sleeping on floors and have no bathrooms. Imagine having to crush the liberty of your fellow neighbor while being unable to take a shit in a toilet.
Salute them for their service.
Same thing happened when they were finally sent to defend the Capitol on Jan 6th.
Also remember when Trump called them up and pulled them away from their families for Thanksgiving so he could fearmonger that migrant caravan full of women and children?
Yup, exactly what I thought of. Concrete parking garage in winter. Without food. Remember a few Democrat politicians would buy pizza for the service members because Trump didn’t care about them?
Trump has so little regard for service members.
Didn’t he say those that got shot or crippled are losers?
Yes.
Fuck those guys for following orders violating the Constitution.
Yup. 2000 more people for the jail cell imo—or the grave.
trump never considered soldiers people.
The billionaires have us at each others’ throats.
You know that parking deck or whatever they’re all sleeping in smells like farts and piss by now.
Had me in the first half, not gonna lie

I remember seeing a similar photo/story of the CBP reinforcements deployed to Portland OR back during the height of the BLM protests.
Fucking deserved if you ask me.
