With all the chaos Obama has continued to stir up thus far:
His Stimulus fiasco
Obamacare
Illegal Immigration fiasco happening as we speak.
NAFTA not being handled properly.
His no-Jobs Bill
Never-ending wars
Suspect killings of Radical leaders (Qadaffi, BinDeadn, Ahmandenijad is next)
...Do you think his goal to make such a mess and confusion with our country and it's systems and programs, that the people go haywire and a few outbreaks of violence towards Washington could trigger him calling for Martial Law?
as a person who looks at the big picture. I think so.
and given his newly found pool of Obama voters(Immigrants), He'll have his opportunity to further weaken the country. .
Because let's face it, He's gonna get 4 more years. His spell on the Obamabots is too strong. and the Republicans, save Ron Paul, don't even have a damn clue. they want Herman Monster to win.
Martial law is the imposition of military rule by military authorities over designated regions on an emergency basis—usually only temporary—when the civilian government or civilian authorities fail to function effectively (e.g., maintain order and security, and provide essential services), when there are extensive riots and protests, or when the disobedience of the law becomes widespread. In most cases, military forces are deployed to quiet the crowds, to secure government buildings and key or sensitive locations, and to maintain order.[1] Generally, military personnel replace civil authorities and perform some or all of their functions. The constitution could be suspended, and in full-scale martial law, the highest-ranking military officer would take over, or be installed, as the military governor or as head of the government, thus removing all power from the previous executive, legislative, and judicial branches of government.[1]
Martial law can be used by governments to enforce their rule over the public. Such incidents may occur after a coup d'état (Thailand 2006); when threatened by popular protest (China, Tiananmen Square protests of 1989); to suppress political opposition (Poland in 1981); to stabilize insurrections or perceived insurrections (Canada, The October Crisis of 1970). Martial law may be declared in cases of major natural disasters, however most countries use a different legal construct, such as a "state of emergency".
Martial law has also been imposed during conflicts and in cases of occupations, where the absence of any other civil government provides for an unstable population. Examples of this form of military rule include post World War II reconstruction in Germany and Japan as well as the southern reconstruction following the U.S. Civil War.
Typically, the imposition of martial law accompanies curfews, the suspension of civil law, civil rights, habeas corpus, and the application or extension of military law or military justice to civilians. Civilians defying martial law may be subjected to military tribunal (court-martial).
