DOD just changed the rules instituting “shoot to kill” orders for all military assisting local law enforcement during civil unrest.

A recent update to DoD directive 5240.01 on September 27, 2024 has given the military the power to use lethal force when accompanying local and state law enforcement on domestic soil in violent situations.

Now who actually authorized such a controversial change? The directive had gone unchanged since 2016, but now with the election closing in rapidly we have now given the military the ability to kill its own citizens?

Is this a precursor to martial law being enacted, or at least the expectation of such an event?

In actual war zones the military has “rules of engagement.” Which sadly has taken many lives of our brave soldiers because they couldn’t react to a threat in a timely manner. There is no such wording in this new directive.

This is very eerie, not only the timing (so close to the election) but nobody seems to be claiming responsibility for the change.
