The "if invaded" qualifier is fair, but what I heard from Danish authorities was that they would not wait to be fired upon. They said, if US forces came, then Denmark would "shoot first" regardless of whether the US had fired a shot.

I think you'll find "shoot the invaders during an invasion" is pretty standard policy.

Okay, tell that to the US Border Patrol.

Missed the last few days of news, did you?

If Mexico said they wanted Texas and sent troops across the border, I assure you force would be rapidly used. By more than just CBP.
