七个多月前,曾写过一个帖子,说对川普同学“独裁倾向”的忧虑,在这儿:
“中国的将军们知道怎么做”,川普同学说 - 博客 | 文学城
其中主题说的是川普上届总统任内就派美国联邦军人对美国民众使用武力历史事件分析。结论是:
用军队的枪对着本国平民,这一点,美国法律,美国军队,美军文化是完全不同于“中国的将军们”的。
而此时此刻,川普总统以维护“联邦执法人员安全与工作”的名义,已经派了700名海军陆战队员进驻洛杉矶。不是假设,而是现实。对此,加州州长在社交媒体上发此声明:
Gavin Newsom
U.S. Marines serve a valuable purpose for this country -- defending democracy. They are not political pawns. The Secretary of Defense is illegally deploying them onto American streets so Trump can have a talking point at his parade this weekend. It’s a blatant abuse of power. We will sue to stop this. The Courts and Congress must act. Checks and balances are crumbling. This is a red line — and they’re crossing it. WAKE UP!

同时,纽时的报道如下:
So far, National Guard troops and Marines in Los Angeles appear to have largely stayed out of confrontations between protesters and local police. But the deployments are striking because military troops are meant to be used domestically only in the rarest and most extreme situations.

希望下面的结论不会被测试:
用军队的枪对着本国平民,这一点,美国法律,美国军队,美军文化是完全不同于“中国的将军们”的。
如果万幸中之不幸,如上结论被在洛杉矶测试,希望美国法律,美国军队,美军文化会是合众国的屏障。
先写这些,饿了,去吃 TACO了,^_^。
