Would you support a military coup in the United States?

I think some are confusing the issue. If the Military moves against the government its a Coup (Un expectable) . If it defends the Constitution of the United States and the Laws that Bind us as a country it is not a Coup.

A sudden appropriation of leadership or power; a takeover. Our military swears an oath to uphold the Constitution of the U.S. The government is a picture of the people that place them there. So if there is an issue vote them out.

Now that being said. If there is an illegal move by the government to the people of the U.S. it is the military's responsibility to stand up for the people. its in the oath you took to join the military and it would not be considered a Coup.

congratulations, you're on a list now.

Scary Question. But given the current state of our military, I don't think the US would be better off - toxic leaders, sexual assaults, If we cant solve these programs internally what make one think the military could run the nation.

Here is my answer,
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to affect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.
This is the founding document to me. The constution defines our rights that already existed when the Constitution was written. It also gives a method to deal with elected officials that break our laws, they call it impeachment!
Now about this coup business. I had a coup one time, it was I think a 67 Pontiac GTO. But seriously though this subject on Rally Point has shown us that there are those who think that this is an option and they are entitled to their opinion. Well when our elected officials ignore, refuse to enforce, fail to comply, lie, and do not faithfully execute their oath of office what do we the people do? Who is the last guardian of the republic when the elected officials will not act, will not do the right thing or will not follow the oath they took? I guess the Armed Forces will just continue to follow orders from what I’ve read on here. Your duty is to the Constitution soldiers!
I think what we really need is to modify the Constitution through a convention. Most all of the ills we suffer today could be fixed with some tweaks and a few new amendments. We also abolish the bad in government by being informed voters and voting. If well lose our nation it’s our own fault.

A Republic, if you can keep it.”

Support and defend the CONSTITUTION, (not the government) against ALL enemies, foreign or DOMESTIC. Our CONSTITUTION is under attack, it's time to fight back.

Is this a trap? Is someone monitoring this conversation, site? Is someone keeping a list?

I feel like this is bait, trap?

A coup being where the military seizes power is an absolute no. We made an oath to uphold and defend the constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic. That said. We are not sworn to the president or congress or the supreme Court. Our loyalty is to the constitution and the bill of rights and ultimately to the people of the country. If the government and politicians essentially shred the constitution and become a source of tyranny then rebellion becomes duty.
