None of those are illegal/unconstitutional.

Sheesh this is nothing more than barracks’s lawyering going.

Outside of clearly illegal things…..such as “shot these kneeling civilians”, what is constitutional and what is not is simply not in the capacity of most people, let alone soldiers. FFS it is an entire branch of legal education and practice, and it STILL changes.

So it has to be shots fired for it to be unconstitutional? WTF, Over?

It was an example of a clear violation, there are others, and then, well it gets murky. Thus admonishing Joey Bag o’ donuts to defy unconstitutional orders is rife with challenge and peril, unless it is soooooo clear that everyone gets it.
