BOUNCING AROUND the Internet is a photo of a huge banner that was carried in the recent “peace” demonstration in San Francisco. The banner says, “We support our troops when they shoot their officers.” Now, the calm response to that banner is that “our troops,” were they to shoot “their officers,” would be violating the oath they take upon enlisting, which obligates them to obey “the orders of [superior] officers,” which don’t include shooting or otherwise committing acts of violence against those officers. And such acts, it probably doesn’t have to be pointed out, aren’t merely violations of the oath of enlistment but duly punishable crimes.
