Again in your example, the cops, the courts, etc go along with the lizard people eating humans. And the Constitution somehow covers some other species. That's a little far fetched to me.
My larger point is having a military faithful to their oath is a barrier against tyranny.
It's clearly illegal for the military to start arresting people. I don't think the parallels with Nazi Germany go in the same directions. The round up and detain people would MUCH MORE likely happen against an unpopular minority.....see the Japanese in WWII.
Gee, another relevant example.

So the first scenario isn’t relevant?
I don't think it's realistic.
