A little heads up for the Teabagger/Militia folks from one who once packed heat for Uncle Sam.
   
If you seriously believe that you are capable of going up against the United States government, I would urge you to put your affairs in order, because you will be swiftly and efficiently fragged, tagged, and bagged. The idea that a bunch of rag-tag, candy-ass, drunks believe they could stand up against even a platoon, let alone the full force of the US military is hysterically funny. You have no idea how stupid you appear, prancing through the woods in your cammo, to individuals who have seen real combat. Deal with it, ass-holes. The C-in-C is an African-American. He was democratically elected (in a landslide). All the rest of your whining is bullshit, and you lack even the rudimentary courage to state your true objection to our President.
**** it, I haven't worn a green suit for almost 40 years, but I just might re-up for a chance to put one in the ten ring of a few of you jackasses.

For those unfamiliar with 11B, his military resume' reads just like the movie "Hamburger Hill". He claims to have been in the same battles portrayed in the movie. Same time in country. Same Division; 101st Airborne.

3. Yeah, I always think of those old boys drunk to the gills
   
and waddling around in the woods with their pop guns coming up against a tank. Without air support.

It's you guys with the substance abuse problem.

11. A squad of fresh PFC's could do the job.
   
And not suffer a scrape.

A lot of similar posts. I'm reminded of chimps in a cage, hanging on the bars, flinging poop on each other.

23. The militia folks are wannabes

As one 11B to another, it would take all of five minutes to clean out any of these groups. And never forget that the boys and girls on AD have sworn an oath to protect the constitution from all enemies foreign or DOMESTIC.

This is why that the military will turn on zero before any civilians.

26. 60 in January. And yeah, A Shau Valley, 70-71.

11B had to mention the plot of the movie, er, his service.

A lot of stupid at that camp fire.

Packed heat for Uncle Sam??  Shit, now all he needs to do is pull a gun on a sitting Senator and we've got the next TiT right there.

[Carl]

He was democratically elected (in a landslide).

He's been running his 101st line for years. It's a war movie, so the primitives haven't seen it to make the connection. The men at the DUmp prefer watching movies like "Love Story" and the women like movies similar to "Debbie does Dallas".

Tell that to the guys working for the KBR security teams or for Blackwater.

[The Village Idiot]

Wow. Pathetic.

How much of the regular military would actually fight for Obama against their own country?

And by the time it gets to that point anyway, these DUmmies would already be zombies without their entitlement checks.

[TheSarge]

A Shau Valley, 70-71.

Correct me if I'm wrong...but I thought that Nixon had stopped the draft lottery by 1970?

[Tucker]

I enlisted in 70. I had a number. I wasn't told that I could have volunteered my draft. Would have been two years instead of three. But then I would have been US and not RA. Those in the Army under a US tag got no slack.

[DumbAss Tanker]

Correct me if I'm wrong...but I thought that Nixon had stopped the draft lottery by 1970?

It actually didn't start much before that, I remember it came in while I was in high school to replace the previous system...my turn was in 1970 but I drew a number over 350, and the number called was already being reduced, they were only expecting to pull in up to something like number 90 that year (And that was with a heavy number of deferments, which were readily available including for students, merely keeping up a passing GPA would sustain the deferment).  I believe they continued to pull in some draftees for another year or two.  I don't recall meeting anyone who was actually still serving an initial draftee enlistment (2 years) by the time I enlisted in '75.  

[blitzkrieg_17]

Another example of a primitive fantasizing while furiously beating his 1-inch 'member.' Not going to happen. And stop pretending to be a soldier, you piece of crap.

[Odin's Hand]

Great, another internet Recondo grad...

You know, it's kind of funny, but I think that my ancestors heard this little speech (albeit in a bit of a different context) about 235 years ago.  Now, can anyone with more than 6 brain cells and at least one trip through an elementary school history class help this wanna be "killer" with how that particular disagreement turned out?

Deal with it, ass-holes. The C-in-C is an African-American.

Wow, the oh-so-tolerant liberal brought race into this.  Who woulda thunk it?   

He was democratically elected (in a landslide).

A landslide?  Are you ****ing serious?!?

 

Tell you what, assclown, if you really want to see what a "landslide" looks like, make sure you stay sober enough to watch the election returns this November.

All the rest of your whining is bullshit, and you lack even the rudimentary courage to state your true objection to our President.

Oh, I have no problem whatsoever stating my true objection to the bolshevik in chief.  If you didn't get that clue, let me give you another - it has nothing to do with the color of his skin and everything to do with the content of his character.

**** it, I haven't worn a green suit for almost 40 years, but I just might re-up for a chance to put one in the ten ring of a few of you jackasses.

Tell you what, ****head, why don't you skip the preening (you're not impressing anyone) and come meet me.  I'll be more than happy to give you all you can ****ing handle.

[SSG Snuggle Bunny]

If you seriously believe that you are capable of going up against the United States government,...

This is where I stopped reading because no Tea Party group has spoken of such things. It's strictly the DUmmies puffin-up inside their own heads trying to rationalize why they are on the losing side of America's political debate.

[JohnnyReb]

I don't know about 11BooHoo, but the rednecks around here are smart enough not to try to go toe to toe with the military....and they would be sneaky as hell about how they did attack the US military. All us country boys know every hill, creek, gully, ditch, tree and back road for miles around. Action would be like the Swamp Fox of old, hit and run, hit and run.

But we don't want to shoot US service men and women....we want to shoot commies.

[GOBUCKS]

The DUmp is full of budding TiTs in the springtime.

That's just it. We would be brothers in arms with the military against the Zero in charge.

[DumbAss Tanker]

Things would have to be so broken down that the military itself was fragmented before things 11-Bozo is talking about would come to pass, of course that state of social disintegration is basically the scenario any intelligent militia types have in mind as the ultimate point where their ship comes in.

The Swamp Fox lived in a world where he had equivalent technology to his foe, plus superior local intelligence and mobility.  Today FLIR, UAVs, GPS, and satellite imagery, and Gen 3+ individual night vision make it damned near impossible to take on an intact US military force head-to-head and live through it for any militia types, but I doubt any of them that have a remote clue about modern combat are thinking along those lines.  There are clueless idiots all across the political spectrum, though, so no doubt there are a few dumb enough to try it.   

[Zafod]

good lord.....

[TheSarge]

My thought exactly.

They could take the time to read up on asymmetrical warfare

[DumbAss Tanker]

Dude, at this point, the Army and Marines have so much more expertise in assymmetrical warfare than any militiamen do that it isn't even funny.

[BlueStateSaint]

My thoughts exactly.  If anyone knows how to fight such a conflict, it's our armed forces.

[The Village Idiot]

What I think (hope) is, if TSHTF, half those regular Army guys will be on OUR side and not the governments.

You know, it's not like this wet-mouthed DUmbass actually took part in the Battle for Hamburger Hill, that ended in May of 1969.

Oh I doubt DUmmie wimmin watch porn, if they did they'd be happier because they'd have better sex lives, they'd shave (at least legs and underarms) because they'd see how much better it looks, and they'd take better care of themselves...maybe shower once in a while instead of dousing themselves in patchouli oil. There ain't one of those women who can hold a candle to Sasha Grey or Stormy Daniels (who has, evidently, recently become a republican).
