Ho Lei Schitt! Just heard on MSNBC that National Guard troops
deployed for the inauguration will be carrying live ammunition.
You have to have a military background or be a vet to know how serious this is. They are preparing for an honest to God U.S. vs Paramilitary confrontation.
I feel sorry for all involved but the Militias will see what it means to commit treason by taking up arms against the United States of America. If they do, there will be blood.
13. Most people have no idea how paranoid the military is about their guns and ammunition.
Typically there are a few designated individuals under the direct control of a command grade officer who will have live ammunition. If all hell breaks out pre-loaded magazines will be issued with records kept on who got how many rounds and when they are returned at the end of patrol every round has to be accounted for.
If they are deployed with ammunition from the git go it is a REALLY big deal. It means the Brass is anticipating, no expecting, armed confrontation.
