Thankfully? Would you rather have martial law or Joe Biden as president?

Good question...I have witnessed martial law in action, as a shore patrol officer (beat charlie) in the Philippines. The local police (P.C.) apprehended suspects in a brutal beating of an American sailor. The arresting officer, not in hot pursuit, entered a house without a warrant. He exited with a suspect whose hand he was holding. After the suspect was very calmly escorted to a waiting paddy wagon, I asked the cop, “Why did the perp go so willingly?” The P.C. calmly stated, “He resists, and I kill him with this.” And he held up the M1911 he held is in his other hand. I don't think, under martial law, a written report would have even been required.

For me it's not an easy question, but I know the BLM and Antifa pukes would suddenly be facing some tough questions as well.

How about a weak democrat in office named Marshall Law?

I did a post on the fact our President, And State Governors can and have put Martial Law in place 68 times in our Republic.

Do you want the link and reasons why ??

Really odd thing that sooooo many people here seem to think it is not able to be done.

Your WRONG.

Many say that troops cannot be used on US soil, WRONG....

Come on, have at me... I use RECORDED history as proof. Not just BS or brainwashed opinions....

This is my proof, easy reading, and factual, note they list it into definition of use for us to read.

Never turn your back on history if you want to argue a point in the present.

Respects
