They do studies regarding troop reactions to civil disturbances quite often.
In a scenario where the Government were battling citizens unjustly, over 60% of the military would side with civilians. I feel pretty good about that, given a lot would be worried about superiors viewing their responses.
This is the cultural aspect that I was speaking of.

We were discussing hypotheticals, and I said that the military was ordered to turn and kill American citizens. I never really gave a reason for it, it could be anything.
Civil unrest, objection to large government, gun confiscation, etc.
To me there's a large difference between a member of the military firing on citizens who are shooting at them and a member of the military firing on unarmed Americans.

The likelihood of soldiers being ordered to fire on unarmed US citizens in pretty improbable. It is even far less probable that the soldier follows those orders.

Per the surveys I spoke of, the highest likelihood of a civilian being shot by a soldier is if the civilian is advancing upon an area where the soldier is ordered to protect.
(ie: National Guard Armory)
Not that it is overly relevant, but they also revealed that they are not very fond of the current Commander in Chief.

I'll be on whatever side offers better food than Arby's.

I wish we had an Arby's here in my community.
