Just look at Syria, mass defections all the way from Generals to conscripted soldiers.
Oaths of Enlistment and Oaths of Office
"I, _____, do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God."
This is 100% correct!!
But the one thing everyone is forgetting! We the People are the government! If you don't like some of the laws get involved write to your congress let them know how you feel and find out what it takes to change policies. Biggest problem with our government today is most everyday Americans don't care to do anything about it. Majority will always win and if you don't agree with the majority talk about it and hopefully get the majority to change (For the right reasons)
I wish a lot more folks would start doing this as well and make an effort to actually get involved!

Exactly. The military can bring all of the weapons and technology they want but fighting enemies you can't identify isn't an easy task. I'm not saying we could beat or military but fighting civilians has a history of being difficult.We also have a lot more technology and training than terrorist groups. Why can't we eliminate all of them???
keep in mind, that just bc farmer joe has an old hunting rifle does not put him on even playing ground with an equipped Marine/soldier. greater numbers does not always make up for far greater training/gear/firepower
it's a very hazy, gray area. i think that most military members wouldn't fire on general public...but if these 'civilians' were bunkered in, firing at them then i could see it getting ugly.

You guys don't need to worry about the military. You guys need to worry about your local LE and all the fun 3 letter agencies (obviously DoD is 3 letter but no need to really worry there), out there...
