Do people really think that the servicemen in the military would willingly attack Texans? I have a huge suspicion that they'd revolt within the armed forces.
As someone currently serving active duty, yes - depending on the command climate and the servicemember. Especially if the targets are labeled as insurgents and a VEO threat with credible evidence. Now, bombing noncombatant civilians is a different story, but as far as conducting surgical strikes on domestic terrorists, no hesitation.
National guard at Kent state had no issues killing civilians.
