Disregard all rules, Get this to anyone you know in the US military now
A tweet states that National Guard or Active Duty military ordered to violate constitutional rights can call the GI Rights Hotline for support, with the number 1-877-447-4487 provided.
In before this hotline is closed down or subverted.
this is a tweet from 2020: https://xcancel.com/CianMW/status/1267890378276876288
but, the organization which operates that hotline is still active: https://girightshotline.org/
The nazi soldiers were just following orders man idk what else to say. They were basically innocent.
Don’t expect that to make a difference. Only 199 were tried at Nuremberg.
But over 3.5 Million were investigated, removed from office or faced trial in the so called “Entnazifizierung”
it hasn’t been silently taken over to disappear anyone that disobeys?
I dont think so, but If you think it has, contact JAG. Went to lookup if they have hotline, CAL GAURD JAG was apparently a trending search…
no hotline but front desk # for CAL GAURD JAG is 916-854-3505
not the same thing but UCMJ reports and legal questions are JAG’s bread and butter
What does GI stand for?
Gastrointestinal.
Well actually: “It was originally an initialism used in U.S. Army paperwork for items made of galvanized iron.[2] The earliest known instance in writing is from either 1906[3] or 1907.[2]” Also later on re-interpreted as “government issued” etc. but I guess today it just means US army soldier
Apparently, it originally stood for galvanized iron based on the Wikipedia links shared elsewhere in this thread.
For completeness, Glycemic Index. In this case General Infantry though.
Glycemic Index Joe, reporting for duty
gastrointestinal Joe always reports for dooty
General Infantry. I believe it’s a classification in the US Army, but it basically just means soldier.
General Infantry
In military/national defense contexts, it’s usually referring to General Infantry
I think it is actually generally short for “Government Issue” as a kinda a reference that they are government issue like everything else in a soldiers life
Without looking it up I think it’s government issued. Or that’s what I learned or made up as a kid. Probably wrong.
If the sort of person who was part of those organisations cared about rule of law, none of them would have boarded planes to Iraq. Appreciate the optimism though.
Maybe this is libbed up, but someone here probably knows a national guard volunteer, at least some of whom probably don’t want to go out and fight their fellow community members for ICE.
