There will be no warfare if martial law is implemented. Americans are too neutered. Everyone, including conservatives, waits for someone else to deal with the problems.

They’ll have to confiscate our weapons because we can’t be trusted to not be violent.

Not at all. No one is ready to make the supreme sacrifice many believe needs to be made. The dirty little secret that Obama and his cronies know going back decades. Sigh.

As the shite is only now starting to tiptoe into the fan, time will tell.

But I can promise you this: there'll be no boxcar for this ol'fella.

I don’t believe Barack Hussein Obola knows what SWAT even means. He is an ignorant jackass.

How much more freedom do you have to lose before something is done about it? "Cross this line and I will get mad". "Okay, cross THIS line and I will get really mad". "Now you've gone and done it. Cross this new line and I swear I will do something".

The next line in the sand will be at the edge of a cliff with the RATs laughing their heads off as conservatives fall to their demise.

Considering the ineptitude of the current regime, I wouldn’t worry too much about martial law. They’ll eff it up just like everything else.

This chrisis is one he will not pass up. It may even allow him to enact martial law. Lets hope that Washington DC gets most of the cases.

And he offered assurance tonight that a “serious outbreak” remains extremely unlikely.

Wait a minute...a month ago, he said:

First and foremost, I want the American people to know that our experts, here at the CDC and across our government, agree that the chances of an Ebola outbreak here in the United States are extremely low. We’ve been taking the necessary precautions, including working with countries in West Africa to increase screening at airports so that someone with the virus doesn’t get on a plane for the United States. In the unlikely event that someone with Ebola does reach our shores, we’ve taken new measures so that we’re prepared here at home. We’re working to help flight crews identify people who are sick, and more labs across our country now have the capacity to quickly test for the virus. We’re working with hospitals to make sure that they are prepared, and to ensure that our doctors, our nurses and our medical staff are trained, are ready, and are able to deal with a possible case safely.
So...we've upgraded "outbreak unlikely" to "serious outbreak unlikely"? And that bit about "we're prepared" and details thereof, well, so far not so much.

It all depends on the meaning of "serious". If you're a political figure with a private 747 and a hermetically sealed Virginia redoubt with a few years' food, then no, this isn't serious. If you happen to be an ER nurse and the patient you've just admitted is shooting blood from every orifice, then yeah, it's serious.

I was going to post about the same thing. If you are a doctor or nurse and haven't already retired because of Obamacare, you betcha this is serious. Also, since the early symptoms of Ebola are similar to the flu, it's going to make for an interesting flu season in ERs throughout the land.

Anyone keeping track of how many times Fubar Obama has been wrong?

I hear what you're sayin'.

But aside from being no longer young, I'm not an army, or even part of one.
So what was said above IS the line in the sand for what's left of this solitary life.

Still, it ain't over til it's over .. and that boxcar resistance won't be a quiet one.

In the meantime, your tactical suggestions for our side would surely get a thoughtful and thorough airing on FR.

What a relief. I’m glad the current outbreak isnt serious. I’m sure the two nurses with ebola currently will be glad to hear its not serious as well...
