military guards are respectful of the civilians they serve
The comments for the brit video on :reddit-logo: were about how there were signs posted that they don’t stop for anyone and if they were out of formation they could lose their jobs. Literally ‘just following orders’ shit for trampling a child while doing monarchy cosplay.
oh well then that’s fine, I am sure they would accept the same excuse for a Chinese tank driver conspicuously (not) running someone over
If a hostile foreign power had armed protesters who were camping in front of Buckingham palace and were burning British soldiers alive, the tanks wouldn’t have had to run over them as they would have filled them with bullets first.
American police bulldoze protestors that live less than a mile away from them. And that’s the unarmed protestors…
Queen’s guard
People’s Liberation Army
Tells you everything you need to know. I bet if that kid was a royal they wouldn’t have gotten trampled.
I can just imagine some british gammon defending the right video here.
“aye m8, that boi is a propa wanka for gettin in da way o’ da troops! [turning redder and redder] R-RESPECT THE SOLDIERS YOU WANKA!! {frothing]”
you should read the reddit thread, it’s pretty much Americans and Brits falling over themselves to respecta the monarchist customs.
Commenters on the Daily Mail wanted the guard to shoot the kid. I wanna end this comment with “lmao” but that doesn’t feel right in this case.
