Yes it is pretty techinical, but some may be assuming the majority of Service members are going to turn their back on their oath, and in doing so, the Constitution, and because the Constitution is voicing the rights of the PEOPLE then turning their backs on them as well.
In doing so they would not only be betraying their oath, but their own rights and the rights of their loved ones as well. Now I don't think the Fed would wave a wand making gun owners, or conservatives domestic terrorists. That is essentially 80 Million people... Which is more than the 5 largest armies in the world COMBINED.
The military just wouldn't go for it. As I stated when talking about lawful orders, if the Miitary leaders or the government give such an order, then obligation of the troops would be to refuse. Simply becasue by giving an unlawful order you have surrendered your oath wich means my oath is no longer bound to you or your orders.
Bottom line is our Constitution does not only exeist in a glass box in the Rotunda, it exists in every single one of us especially if you have sworn life and limb to protect it.
