Martial law in a country this size, and this well armed is impossible. Not improbable, impossible.

The armchair warriors think tactics. Think logistics. The country is too large. The army is small. The army will splinter. They might be able to control small areas. But that’s it.

“Martial law in a country this size, and this well armed is impossible.”

If you think in terms of ratios, maybe not. Germany, the Soviet Union, and every fascist State added means as needed to have dominate government control. The US is starting with more government enforcement agents than they did; a much denser ratio of agent to citizen. They added Block Captains and other position so authority and quickly stomped any individual resistance.

It is amazing the authority a disgruntled liberal would wield if given a radio and permission to call in a heavy force on any individual so much as speaking out. Heavy force comes in and either kills or takes away said individual. Worked in those other nasty places.

Hell, as it is most people don’t speak their minds at work or in public.

Their martial law would be systematic, not erratic. Their liberal efforts already show their game plan.

Depends on how many government-schooled sellouts, traitors and Quislings they can buy.

And every few days, more veterans die, and more schools graduate their obedient output.
