Could a form of martial law be imminent? Obama appears ready to cross the Rubicon, and all he needs is a killer virus.
Lets connect some dots.
Remember President Obamas Executive Order basing 80,000 active troops at home for the first time in the history of the peacetime military establishment to help with civil unrest and crowd control or to deal with potentially horrific scenarios such as massive poisoning and chaos in response to a chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear or high-yield explosive, or CBRNE, attack .
Now connect that information to the recent announcement that the military has established regional deployment locations all across the United States to assist civilian authorities in the event of a significant outbreak of the H1N1 virus this fall, according to Defense Department officials.
Civil unrest and crowd control? Significant outbreak of the H1N1 virus this fall? What do they know that we dont?
Swine flu has been made into a crisis in the minds of the public, even though swine flu, or H1N1, is the most non-lethal killer virus ever uncovered. As a cataclysmic event demanding military assistance, it ranks near zero. It is doubtful whether swine flu could even be classified as an epidemic, much less a pandemic.
Regular influenza, the common flu, kills 36,000 people every year. The 1918 flu pandemic killed an estimated 50-100 million people worldwide over a period of two years, approximately one-third the population of Europe at that time. Global swine flu deaths topped just 1,000 this year.
But President Obama is predicting death tolls of 90,000 and possible infection of up to half the US population

When it comes down to it, do you really think that OUR military will take up arms against US? HMMM,,,I dont think that will happen. More likely that the 80,000 will march on Washington, DC.
At least they would have some confidence that Disneyland East is a gun free zone.
I’ve been beating this drum with co-workers and gun owners at the local gun range. I work for a hospital system, and we’ve not had a single reported incident except one employee in IT that had “flu-like symptoms.” I’m curious how much the media is hyping these numbers. They could lie to us (they have in the past) about the infection numbers or hype anyone with a fever and a sniffle as “potentially infected.”
29 years on this Earth and I’ve had the flu once... just once. Never get the flu shots. Take my vitamins everyday, eat right, exercise. I don’t have kids (yet), so I’m sure the little incubators are part of the infection problem. However, even working in a hospital, I don’t worry about it.
If they try to institute martial law, I would hope that the States would step in and say “not so fast,” especially with recent laws being passed in many states that prohibit the government from seizing lawfully-owned weaponry. Some goon from the CDC comes knocking on my door telling me I need to get a shot, they’ll be getting a shot from me, verbally and, if necessary, from the muzzle of a rifle.
Bring it on Obambi. Your lies and misdirections are only going to be tolerated for so much longer before the American people start hammering on you like we did Van Jones.
Yes! Next question.
What is it with these article titles in the form of a question? Have all the writers gone jeopardy on us?
And another thing...in the past 8 years I have not seen nor heard the term president used so many times as I have in the past 8 months. Some articles actually insert the word before "its" name every time they use it. Makes me gag!
It wouldn’t surprise me if BO pulled a fast one and declared some action to stop the 9/12 march under the false pretense it is necessary to stop large public gatherings to prevent the spread of the swine flu.
Well, I've had almost double your years on earth and I only remember one time that I had the flu (around the year you were born), but it came at the end of a bad cold that went into a bronchial infection.
I've never had a flu shot, nor do I ever intend to get one.
I do not take vitamins, eat for crap and do as little exercise as is humanly possible. I don't do sick! The last time I had a cold bad enough to discuss was 16 years ago. I lived and I didn't take anything or go to a doctor.
Liberals always project their next move. They claim it is what they fear the most, but it is what they want the most. The misinformation and disinformation regarding H1N1 is on purpose, they will take advantage of it. If their tactics hold true, they will release something to make matters worse. They will faux overreact and create their martial law requirement.
As part of the avian flu ping group I have observed how other countries handle the outbreaks. Some downplay, some up-play but all the governments play the crisis.
Something very evil is coming.
I will be glad if I am wrong.

I’m with you. Newspapers have blurbs such as, “University Struck By H1N1”, but when I ask my neighbors kid about his school and the flu, he said he didn’t know of anyone who was sick!
After Desert Storm, I worked in confined quarters with soldiers returning from the desert. My wife and I both experienced an upper respiratory (chest, throat and sinus) problem that laid us low each fall for several years. We seem immune to that now with out flu shots. If we survived these other influenza outbreaks, I guess we will make it with this Muslim Pig flu. Ozero can keep his shots and his martial law. We don't choose to play.
LOL! Good one...
“”It wouldnt surprise me if BO pulled a fast one and declared some action to stop the 9/12 march under the false pretense it is necessary to stop large public gatherings to prevent the spread of the swine flu.””
After reading about some states proposing pandemic responses, I also expect this to happen to shut down all rallies.
It’s not only IA (as discussed on FR recently), now it’s MA, FL, NC, WA.
CA, ME, MD, NB, NY, OH, TX, VA, WI have declared states of emergency without proposals as yet.
Barbara Fischer, president of the National Vaccine Info Center has good information on the so called epidemic. She said public health doctors have persuaded legislators to pass legislation regarding a response.
A natural disaster. We see it coming. We have had warning. With Katrina, Bush acted too slowly and not strongly enough. Obama won't make that mistake. He won't let us down. That's why we are all being marched off to the camps as soon as anyone sneezes.
This is his big opportunity. As his support is crumbling away, I think he has to make his move.
You are probably a bit overoptimistic. 80,000 troops are surely selected for reliability. American soldiers will not be plunged into things overtly unConstitutional, they will be dipped gently into less and less kosher activities until they are used to it and will be rotated out of action when it is perceived they are getting nervous.
WOW, I did not know you could opt out of any shots the army said you needed. It is a wise decision on your part to avoid any shot the current usurper supports.
As an aside...my mom would get the flu shot every year and without fail would become deathly ill. One year her doctor (new) said it is flu shot time of the year. I told him I did not think it was necessary and informed him of her history with them. He agreed and her last 3 years on earth were lived free of the flu.
no, it won’t happen cuz he’s got those 50K praying Muslims coming to Washington later in the month...
I agree, and I think this also goes for law enforcement. It will be a gradual thing; most Americans in those fields are Americans first and not loyal to Obama's Dear Leader cult of personality, so it will be necessary to trick them into it in some way by making it look as if it is really a good thing, helpful to America.
