Commenters insist patriots must refuse illegal orders

Original: # Patriots don't obey illegal orders! They also don't give them! There is NO absolute immunity for absolute stupidity! #

Political commentary is circulating arguing that true patriots neither obey nor issue illegal orders, and that there should be no absolute immunity for what it calls absolute stupidity. The statement taps into ongoing debates about presidential immunity and the duty of officials and service members to defy unlawful commands.

Why now: Ongoing debates over immunity for officials who claim orders were legal are keeping the topic prominent.
