The commander of the arm of the U.S. military responsible for Donald Trump’s illegal military occupations of American cities said he is willing to conduct attacks on so-called designated terrorist organizations within the U.S.

This startling admission comes after months of extrajudicial killings of alleged members or affiliates of DTOs in the waters near Venezuela, which experts and lawmakers say are outright murders.

Gen. Gregory Guillot’s sopenness about the potential for unprecedented military action within U.S. borders comes as the White House, Pentagon, and Justice Department continue to refuse to rule out summary executions of Americans on Trump’s secret enemies list, after weeks of requests for clarifications from The Intercept.

    Good luck using those guns when you get painted by a Predator drone from 8 miles away and have a missile shoved down your throat at Mach 2. That won’t happen? Tell that to all those people on the boats the US blew up. Oh wait you can’t, they all got murdered.

    The idea of fat idiots with guns somehow being the heroes who defend democracy against the big bad government is a joke. Not only is the power difference fucking huge, most of those gun freaks are fascist and bootlickers themselves. They voted for that big bad government. Americans are among the most brainwashed in the world and they don’t even know it.

      Missiles are expensive and always in short supply when you try to use a lot. Only the land forces have enough firepower to deal with the whole country.

        I think you’d be surprised how fast entire groups of people surrender once you vaporize a couple of compounds where those militia hold up. You don’t need to kill each and every one of them, you just need to show how futile their fight is and they’ll give up quickly. This won’t be like some last stand situation where two parties stand off against each other. It’s a group of people concentrated in a small area against people who have weapons designed to kill a group of people concentrated in a small area. Sure, some small groups might turn to guerrilla tactics and blow shit up. But I think the people in charge are mostly fine with that. They don’t give two shits about the general public and have plenty of private and actual armies to protect themselves. It won’t change a thing and they’ll hunt down the worst offenders pretty quickly.
