Not even Lincoln during a time of civil war randomly declared non battle zones as martial law. You're idealogy is what kept Stalin in power. It is the same fear that makes otherwise free thinking folks let the military run rough shod over rights.

And you act in a way that does not allow protection of any sort for citizens. Therefore, you act as the enemy against your neighbors.

You forget this is war, we are being attacked and resistence because you do not agree with the protective actions by the authorities risks the lives of others.

You either get out of the way and stand alone - but do not prevent the safe keeping of citizens and their ability to fight those attacking them.

Dissent all you want - but get the heck out of the way of others and fight your own battle with the terrorists. And, don't ask the military, the authorities to do any protecting of you.

And, Lincoln did not have terrorists coming into the cities solely to kill innocent citizens. If he had, he dang sure would have had military there to protect the citizens. Even those not wanting the protection.

How would you be as a soldier? You would resist every order, endangering your buddies and preventing the mission. You would second guess every order in effect abetting the enemy.

You will not convince me that we should all complain and moan when our little wishes are not followed to the letter. As I said before - many here wish us not to protect ourselves and I often wonder if they are indeed on our side. How very simple for the enemy to infiltrate chat sites and urge citizens to resist their own protectors (in the name of freedom). So much easier to kill them that way.

Well, I don't buy it.
