What Do We Do If Obama Invokes Martial Law?
January 22, 2016 | Righttackle 44

Posted on 01/22/2016 5:25:25 PM PST by righttackle44

You've heard the speculation. But what if it really happens? What do We collectively or individually do if Obama invokes martial law under some pretext? What if he orders American military forces to fire upon American citizens? Is there no chance this will happen? Or is there every chance this will happen?

Nothing. The first person that tries will be turned in to the brownshirts by his lesser evil neighbors to save their own asses. All you can do is watch it all burn.

Ask yourself this. It will give you your answer.

“Who do I trust to stand with me?”

Not in America. In your personal circle. You will find few. If we could trust ‘conservatives’ to stand up it would be a different matter. But we can’t. They can’t even vote right anonymously so they damn sure arent gonna risk losing a big screen over you. Or me. Or anyone else.

You really think the military would obey?

You think the entire officer corps would give commands? Not just the lackey appointment level officials, but actual unit commanders?

You think the average enlisted soldier is willing to shoot fellow citizens because Obama says so?

Obama’s power is broken, and he’s flailing around trying to ram through as much possible until he’s a complete laughingstock.

I wonder who Trump will pick for his V.P. If it turns out to be some establishment figure, why couldn’t both parties concoct some reason to impeach Trump and get rid of him that way? That seems about as likely as cancelling the election.

I will let my congress people know how concerned I am and hope they will write a blistering email response to the questionable act.

No /s, this is what I expect from John Cornyn and John Carter from Texas.

I have learned my vote will never be as valuable as the dollars from the K Street Whores.

You could write him a sternly-worded letter; however, you will then be audited by the IRS forever and be sent to a reeducation camp

On a more serious note, I have long said that both major parties do NOT want Trump in the White House.

Agreed. But Obama will not cancel the election. I would instantly, and comfortably, bet my retirement on that.

But here's what does worry me. Back in 1972 George Wallace was running an outsider, populist campaign. And then he got shot.

If he declares Martial law for no good reason or an obviously manufactured reason the military would take him out.

If they manufacture a good “reason” then all bets are off...

That would be a very tough standard to be met across the entire USA

Obama had millions of acres of National Parks CLOSED just to punish American Citizens, what's a few COURT SESSIONS in comparison ?

"Pretext"?

You mean like importing ISIS by the thousands posing as 'refugees from Syria' and the Senate GOP purposefully failing to stop it?

I know too many of our troops who would NEVER obey such an order.

There is no pretext short of a nuke attack that would enable him to make such a pronouncement.

If its anything like here at FR, like minded citizens will immediately form into circles and commence firing at each other. They’ll be door to door fighting going on, only not involving the White House.

My first act would be to make sure I’m logged in and then take a shower. Only after that will I open my rations of canned bacon.
