We need to send a strong message to all military personnel that there will be consequences for this kind of talk.

...It can't happen here because the military is committed to the Constitution of the USA and to civilian control.

7. Flynn has a habit of shooting off his mouth. Remember his "lock her up" chant about Hillary?

Well this time he apparently forgot about the existence of video cameras being everywhere, not just on and in buildings but in most peoples' pocket or purse so he can't deny what what millions by now have seen him saying.

He's loose cannon idiot who should be thankful he's not in jail now (frankly IMO, exactly where he belongs), and should keep a low, low profile and his mouth shut.

Flynn is such a disgusting, gaslighting traitor. He really should be in jail.

12. I think that the fact he said this in front of this particular audience makes it much worse.

This is not someone spouting off over a couple of beers or in a casual setting.

This is a former top General on stage in front of a crowd of radicals.

On Flynn, and anyone else who is found to be planning or promoting the overthrow of Constitution.
