re: #350 Killgore Trout

This is where groups like the OthKeepers come in. The Guardians believed that groups like the Oathkeepers would use the military to oust the elected officials. As we’ve seen these guys have been arested with weapons caches including grenade launchers. It takes just one well armed lunatic to think he’s participating in a military coup to make a big mess.

Certainly agree with you there, however the opposite of right paranoia are those on the left who think that a real military coup could happen and stick in this country. I detected a bit of that yesterday in some comments. That’s not quite as paranoid and bizarre as the oathkeepers crowd, but it is a light diss to our professional military who would not allow that to happen or last under any circumstance, even with the Hollywood plot device that it is…
