I apologize for not knowing enough about D B law, but now I hope everyone will think what martial law is like. Been there when I was a kid; Do not like it I do not think it is too early to sound the alarm. If I am wrong; well been there before, but if Im right were in deep.
By Attorney Jonathan Emord Author of "The Rise of Tyranny" and "Global Censorship of Health Information" and "Restore The Republic" April 2, 2012 NewsWithViews.com On March 16, President Obama without public notice unilaterally assumed dictatorial power over the entire country, issuing an Executive Order (Executive OrderNational Defense Resources Preparedness) that would permit him in times of peace or war, in his sole discretion, to control all of the nations industry and resources for purposes of national defense. Under Article I, Section 9, Clause 2, Congress has the exclusive power to suspend the writ of habeas corpus (the right of one to be released by a court from military or police custody) in cases of rebellion or invasion when the public safety may require it. Although not synonymous with martial law, which the Constitution never mentions by name, it is nevertheless clear that the Founding Fathers did not intend the President either to declare a state of war or to act independent of Congress to suspend the writ. Moreover, there is no executive power to impose blanket regulations over the economy independent of Congress, even in times of war. In this Executive Order, President Obama assumes that extraordinary power beyond the limits of the Constitution. Indeed, so sweeping are the areas of control, that there is no substantive difference between the powers he has assumed and those of a dictator. Under the March 16 Executive Order, the President invokes a 1950 Act of Congress, the Defense Production Act, as a basis for asserting extraordinary control over the entire economy in service to the national defense needs of the United States. In effect, President Obama has unilaterally expanded the authority of Commander-in-Chief to include not only command of the military but also to command all private parties and resources in support of the military and objectives of his administration. The powers assumed are vast, comparable to those exercised by dictators. Part II of the Order includes the following section, which delegates to the various secretaries of the administration the power to supplant private contracts with federal controls over every part of the economy. Sec. 201. Priorities and Allocations Authorities. (a) The authority of the President conferred by section 101 of the Act . . . to require acceptance and priority performance of contracts or orders (other than contracts of employment) to promote the national defense over performance of any other contracts or orders, and to allocate materials, services, and facilities as deemed necessary or appropriate to promote the national defense, is delegated to the following agency heads: the Secretary of Agriculture with respect to food resources, food resource facilities, livestock resources, veterinary resources, plant health resources, and the domestic distribution of farm equipment and commercial fertilizer; (2) the Secretary of Energy with respect to all forms of energy; (3) the Secretary of Health and Human Services with respect to health resources; (4) the Secretary of Transportation with respect to all forms of civil transportation; (5) the Secretary of Defense with respect to water resources; and (6) the Secretary of Commerce with respect to all other materials, services, and facilities, including construction materials. The Executive Order expressly does not limit the use of these extraordinary powers to times of war or the theater of war but, rather, they can be used for purposes of national defense, entirely in the discretion of the President. The powers are delegated to the cabinet secretaries. There is no provision for prior authorization from Congress, so the President assumes that he may act unilaterally. The National Defense Authorization Act declared the entire country a battlefield in the war on terror and granted the President the power to suspend the writ of habeas corpus, permit military arrest and detention without notice of charges or any right of due process any American accused of providing support to terrorists. The Presidents Executive Order grossly expands the constitutional violations in the NDAA by replacing the Constitution with a presumed power of the President to govern the entire economy. In the history of the United States, there has never been a more profound and grave moment of the exercise of imperial executive power than this.

My eyes need this to be split for readability.
All non-compliants vill be shot!
Holy wall of text, Batman!
get to know < p >.
Do this: <
Then this: P
Then this: >
...several times...
... and get back to us.
He isn’t going to declare martial law. He wouldn’t last 24 hours if he did.
LOL....< p > is our friend!
With all the homo’s and liberals in the military, DoJ, spineless RINOS AND DEMS. Hold your breath on that one.
Holy run-on sentence, Batman.
This guy needs to be aware that the occasional line feed and carriage return is our friend.
The homos and liberals aren’t going to kill millions of Americans funneling into Washington DC.
It’s already split! Once in the body, and once in the first comment. You need to turn your computer sideways.
Who do you think will stop him?

Ya gotta love the carriage return.
Thanks for the tip, but my computer is already sideways.

Thanks for the tip, but my computer is already sideways.
what next?
If Obama can shut down the fossil fuel industry, carriages will return and the buggy whip industry will revive.
I will certainly join in to stop this little PUNK!
