RE: Martial Law Rolls Out Across the US As Jubilee Nears

in #crisis8 years ago

The only way two people can keep a secret is if one of them's dead.
The problem with your story is that there are entirely too many players with conflicting interests, none of which benefit in any way from a country in disarray for any of this conspiracy bullshit to be anymore than bullshit.

The truth is poor people will rob and steal and so will reach people. The mob mentality is powerful and once a mob is incited it's hard to put down.

It's human wildfire, because calmer heads can't prevail over the noise of those who believe themselves entitled to the fruits of another's labor.

I'd buy what you were selling if you quit spinning this global conspiracy angle. You're right about things that are happening but you sound like someone off their meds when you start spouting nonsense like George Soros is trying to get elections over thrown.

Here's a fact, he's the single largest backer of several open source voting initiatives including one that is seeking to use blockchain technology to put democracy back into the hands of the people.

It's easy to demonize someone when they have more than you. But keep in mind an armed revolt is the last thing congress wants on it's hands. The National Guard aren't some fucking Jackbooted Stasi going to raid your house for supplies.

They're Joe the mechanic down the road who fixes your car and says to tell the wife and kids hello. They're Melissa the gal at the checkout stand who loaned you a couple bucks because you forgot your wallet at home.

They're the ones that will risk their lives to come get you when your house is flooded by the worst storm in a century and they will stand to protect your home when rioters come to burn it down because of your skin color or day job.

They will do this because they are your friends and your neighbors.

They have a job to do right now. It's the worst job in the world for anyone in the military.

They are faced with the nightmare situation of choosing who to shoot in order to protect your grocery store, your car, your home, your property, your life, you.

They have to do this, because you don't have the guts to be there standing up next to them and telling the rioters that this isn't right.
My advice, get out there and stand for what's right.

Great comment.

Not only the conspiracy theories here are more than doubtful, but the description of the facts sounds like a product of someone's imagination!

I live in NYC and I haven't seen how "military vehicles and other equipment flooded the streets"! Yes, there were police cars after the explosion in Chelsea and the 23rd street subway station was not working... But come on, it's not a martial law or however you call it!

And it was the same with the post about Putin preparing for a nuclear war couple of weeks ago. I quoted the passage about russians waking up to the military alarms in the city to my friends in Moscow and they had a lot of fun:)

To be fair, I live in NYC and was at the Chelsea bombing. I also watched 9/11 from the river. There was indeed martial law in mine and the surrounding towns for the day during 9/11. Now I regularly see military patrolling 42nd street, armed. Also other places. I haven't seen any extra groups of men with high powered assault rifles in a day or two, but they roam the subways whenever some celebrity politician shows up, and the recent UN meetings saw streets that didn't belong to the UN cordoned off and just swarming with every alphabet agency out there. Should've taken a picture for you, Jeff.

I'm not throwing my opinion on either side, just sharing what I observe as witness.

I see your point - haven't been there (luckily!) at the moments of attacks, so I probably didn't see the full police operation that followed. My overall impression is that NYC is a city flooded by police and security at any time, not that it is specifically preparing for some thouroghly planned attack.
There are many things going on here, and especially as the elections are approaching, the security forces are multiplied, I think this is very expected.

But again, this is just my personal and uninformed opinion)

I like how you stand up for the national guard. I have enough people i know serving "part-time" in the guard and "volunteer" for those tough jobs you speak of.
They also barely make min. Wage after all the time they put in.
Good post +1

Couldn't agree more.

Thanks for being a voice of reason. I die a little inside every time I see TDV's self-serving FUD hit the front page.

you might want to pull you head out of there. your choice.
