He stacked military leadership with loyalists. It’s still each and every individual soldiers responsibility to determine for themselves whether they will follow an order if they believe it to be unjust. Many in the military are Maga, but there will be many that would refuse such orders as well… Basically, I’m just trying to say the military isn’t a hivemind. If orders came down to attack us citizens, I’d hope there’d be significant pushback throughout the ranks.

I was only able to read for long periods if it was a fantasy novel. Now, in my 40s, my doctor was amazed I’d never been diagnosed as, according to them, I’m “textbook.”

If he was able to leave the altercation, head to his truck to retrieve his rifle, and then return to the situation that’s not self-defense, its premeditation.
Like much of everything else, the Romans stole/adopted this Greek mentality as well.
