minus-squareouthouseperilous@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·8 months agoYeah! They need to do important stuff! Like point guns at me while I’m going to the grocery store!
minus-squarethermal_shock@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·8 months agoMilitary doesn’t do that, that’s for cops after they get out of the military.
minus-squarepiccolo@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up0·8 months agoExcept when deployed when the police are “overran”.
minus-squareOBJECTION!@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up0·8 months agoYeah, the military’s job is to point guns at people when they’re going to the grocery store in other countries, primarily.
minus-squareouthouseperilous@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·8 months agoOh, so who was the guy in digital camo standing next to the grey armored vehicle doing that? Because im pretty sure that wasn’t a cop; he looked like he might’ve actually know how to use his gun.
minus-squareSkyezOpen@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·8 months agoCops have camo and rifles. I genuinely don’t think the army has vehicles any color other than green, tan, and woodland camo. Did it look like this?
minus-squareouthouseperilous@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·8 months agoMore sidewalk colored. Different hat? I think?
minus-squareCorn@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·8 months agohttps://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lenco_BearCat Those were cops.
minus-squarethermal_shock@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·8 months agoHe’s about to get out and become a cop.
minus-squareouthouseperilous@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·8 months agoNo. Like i said; he was holding his gun properly.
minus-squareLaLuzDelSol@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·8 months agoNational Guard maybe? Officially they are not military though
minus-squareasg101@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·8 months agoNational Guard ARE part of the military, they wear U.S. military uniforms and are deployed to U.S. invaded and occupied countries like Iraq.
minus-squareLaLuzDelSol@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·8 months agoThey are officially civilians, no? I know they can be called up into active service but outside of that…
minus-squareSkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkarrow-up0·8 months agoMarines have also been deployed
