So after the events of this last few days, and if this course continues along its current path, I will be resigning my commission. I cannot in good conscience continue to play a role in defending this government. Nearly 14 years as a reservist...currently in a foreign country with them as I type, gone.

In no way do I look to influence the great men and women of the uniformed services who serve today. They will all have to reflect and decide for themselves. From what I have seen over the last several days the government of the people, by the people, for the people, has (nearly) perished from the earth.

I do so hope that we can fix the injustices (including outright murder) that have occurred here recently... and I would be the first to change my decision but we have been denied peaceful revolution, making violent revolution relatively inevitable.
