Fine, it should be interesting to see the numbers of participants on both sides of this. Imagine being a soldier being deployed against the people of your own country, and seeing their numbers outnumber your company by 100 to 1 or more. If they’re not fully committed nazis they should be wondering if they are on the wrong side by then.
I’m wondering how many of those Guardsmen are not on board with this. They joined to protect Americans, not threaten them.
Most just joined to play soldier on the weekends and look badass to their buddies, and they’ll be thrilled to go point their gun at someone, even if it’s their neighbors, but at least some of them have to be thinking that they didn’t join up for this.
If I were a guardsman, I’d be thinking that it’s a good idea to show in uniform, and switch sides. Probably a fantasy, but I’d love to see it.
