California National Guard put fighter jet on alert in March 2020 for 'possible domestic mission': report
California National Guard put fighter jet on alert in March 2020 for 'possible domestic mission': report
California National Guard members say a fighter jet was put on standby for a "possible domestic mission" last year, raising concerns that the military could be used to disperse protesters in the early days of the coronavirus pandemic, according to a report.
Four National Guard sources spoke to the Los Angeles Times about the matter, revealing that commanders were concerned about resistance to stay-at-home orders or chaos due to panic-buying.
According to the sources, an F-15C fighter was put on alert, which raised concerns among Guard members that the jet could be used to "buzz" crowds -- a tactic often used in combat zones to disperse the enemy.
What the heck are these people thinking of?
Who would issue such an order?
Even better who in their right mind would even give consideration to obeying such an order?
