You'd have a lot of people refuse, and possibly resign, but you'd have those that would carry out those orders. The thin blue line for those guys would be at a breaking point in that moment.
I think far fewer than you'd generally consider. Which is why I always get a kick out of politicians like Swallwell and Robert Frances who say the civilian population would have zero chance of resisting the government. It's almost like they forget that law enforcement and military personnel aren't mindless automatons but citizens like everyone else.
