According to nearly a dozen retired officers and current military lawyers, as well as scholars who teach at West Point and Annapolis, an intense if quiet debate is underway inside the U.S. military community about what orders it would be obliged to obey if President-elect Donald Trump decides to follow through on his previous warnings that he might deploy troops against what he deems domestic threats, including political enemies, dissenters and immigrants.

You know that happened over 100 years ago right? Things have changed since then. If you wanted to make a good case, then you should have brought up Kent State because that one is very valid for criticism.
Kent State was national guard. I would have brought up something like drone strikes or the infamous “collateral murder”.
The infamous “collateral murder” was selectively edited by Assange. And there are some very good reasons to use drone strikes, even against US citizens who are also at the time enemy combatants. And by “enemy combatant,” I mean literally that, not just someone the US president doesn’t like. I mean people who are attached to an organization such as Al-Qaida or to the military of a hostile state, taking up arms against the US or US allies. They’re as bad as Russian assets going into politics to betray the US.
I am choosing to believe you are saying all this ironically.
