To those who have served or are currently serving...

So.... the brigade is deployed in the US.

They will be issued a new weapons package. (yes, nonlethal, yes, some of which have been used before.)

However these weapons are only to be used in a war zone.

I say it's time to start the pool for the first US civilian death by taser at the hands of a US soldier.

Joe, I would tend to agree with this,

I think that you can trust most commanders and SR level NCO's judgment.

but does that really help when those commanders and NCOs get their marching orders to move in on a crowd? I'm not usually an anti-government conspiracy nut, but this is profoundly disturbing to me.
