The marines were just deployed domestically (blatantly unconstitutional) and they complied with the unlawful order. They are part of the fascist insurrection.
I mean, you're right, but it's because of their demographics and proximity to the situation that I said what I said.
Few NRA members will be in any position to intervene or see the reality first-hand. Meanwhile, Marines have seen their spouses and other relatives deported in recent months. Trump was an idiot to deploy them like so, as opposed just about any other branch of the active-duty military.
I take it Marines are especially likely to have family or spouses that are here illegally, for some reason?
1 in five are Hispanic(tbh, I did think it was more), but there was a noteworthy case in the news a while back about a spouse flying into Hawaii and getting deported to Australia. On that note, military members serve overseas a lot, and often marry locals, so the ethnicity stats don't tell the whole story.
