1. I am uneasy about this
It feels like training them to be used against the population.

3. You get used to shooting people out of uniform in an urban setting
It starts to not matter where you are or who's in the gun sight when you squeeze the trigger. But there will be plenty of folks inside and outside the military who will cheer you on, and rationalize your most heinous crimes as "defending freedom" or "protecting America," when what you're really doing is murdering another human being.

But that's not, like, in the official recruiting brochures or anything, so don't quote me.

Rumsfeld must still have an office in the basement at the Pentagram.

Would the Moonbats be happier if National Guard were training to fight in small towns?

After all, we're the ones they want to fight, not terrorists, or tyrants.

Moonbats and Asshats. Makes you wonder who they think the 'insurgents' might be.
