After such a slaughter, Zer0 will declare martial law and the elections will be put on hold until further notice. This is the only motive I can think of. Zer0 is setting up an excuse to institute martial law.
“Fascism is a centrally planned economic system where the government and industry collude.”
Well THAT doesn’t sound familiar. I mean what with our government being so lassez faire towards industry and all,,,/
I’m no expert, but what is the margin of error on Jeb’s 5% polls?
If Americans are slaughtered by muzzies yelling Allah Akbar then many liberals will act like the Swedes and rush to protect the muzzies from “backlash”. And of course CAIR will whine that the muzzies are being treated unfairly.
You’d think that ones natural instinct for self-defense would take over but it’s all backwards now...so many people don’t even think straight anymore. Like the man said...“In a time of deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.
Federal martial law would have no effect on elections, which are carried out by 50 different state governments.
I’m fairly sure it will take exactly that. Probably more than once.
During WW2 there must have been a paper database of Italian immigrants, Italian-Americans, coz my grandmother, a naturalized US citizen, was placed under house arrest coz she was the president of the local Italian-American Society. One of her Italian employees was also under local police surveillance as was my grandfather. Anybody got any info? Even the local Italians & Italian-Americans started calling themselves, Martin, Morette, instead of Martini, Moretti, resp., etc. This is what happens when you are at war; you do not know really what the ethnic population is going to do. So the govt played it safe then rather than sorry later. Some Italians & Italian-Americans actually started using a French-sounding name and wound up after the war using 2 or 3 last names. I kid you not. When my father applied for social security retirement benefits in 1976, the govt actually asked him which of the 4 names he was using - “Which one you want on your checks?” He had a driver`s license in 4 different last names over 40 years-true story. My mother had 3 last names. My 2 Italian-American aunts had 3 last names from 1930-40`s coz Mussolini was in power in the 30`s and had invaded Ethiopia.
Eloquently put!
Martial law suspends the Constitution. The federal government can do anything and the states would have to follow suit. Dr Ben Carson believes that the elections could be suspended under martial law. It would be Zer0’s call.
My friend is Sicilian and her next door neighbors in Brooklyn, also Sicilians, were named Mitchell.
Their last name was really Micelli, but the authorities on Ellis Island changed it to Mitchell.
Seemed wrong to me, when I heard the story.

Trump is right based on logic and reason - not emotion or political correctness. It has nothing to do with race, but as we have repeatedly seen when the left has lost the argument based on facts they will always fall back on politically incorrect labels.
It’s going to get really ugly because the left is afraid. They are afraid that they are losing to candidates who can remove the scales of political correctness from the eyes of America. They are desperate that their usual tricks and shenanigans no longer work. They realize that they are losing the battle of public opinion on a whole host of their sacred cows - racism, abortion, immigration, climate change, the nanny state, and big government.
I am a bit optimistic at the moment. As we have seen with climate change their only tactic no longer works.
WE have the precedent of the Civil War, where elections outside of immediately affected areas went on as normal.
We don’t have the precedent of an Abraham Lincoln in office. Zer0 is like a loose cannon in a wind storm.
We all know Trump never said that...otherwise his numbers would be even higher.
excellent
Piss off and die !Yeb
GOPe whores.
That’s all you need to know.
And Ted Cruz is building his scary army of young Christian voters.
Good grief.
People are going nuts.
Another maverick.
Jeez.
Keep alert. The next time the Obamatollah makes a pronouncement downplaying the danger of ISIS, STAY HOME until the smoke clears.
