And how is the military supposed to know if these non violent protest movements are non violent without looking at them?
- bildung 7y agoI don't know about the U.S. specifically, but usually the military in a democratic country is not allowed to care. That's the job of the police.
- treis 7y agoEvery military, democratic or otherwise, is going to care about potential threats to their bases or ongoing operations. The army isn't out there knocking on doors to investigate. They are getting information from other agencies and publicly available sources to present to the chain of command.
