A vote is one thing, what people will do when the shit really goes down is something else--especially in a confused and uncertain situation.

I am a military veteran, I know what type of people tend to serve (or did when I was in) and I am fairly sure they probably haven't changed that much.

If the situation is clear-cut, there probably isn't any real danger--but if you have a contested "fraudulent" election, that is backed by a GoP controlled House and given a whitewash by SCotUS, I tend to think all bets are off. It will depend upon much much of the leadership decides which side is the "legitimate" government... and it won't be just the generals deciding.. or if they even take sides at all, given the reluctance to get involved in domestic politics.

Don't count on the military to save our asses, save our own asses before the military has to get involved by making sure these people don't have a chance to pull that stuff.
