This Should Scare You....Or at Least Make You Think

 So, in the last few days, there has been a lot of talk about possible "Martial Law." Particularly in the so called "Swing States." The talk is that the election would be " Done Over." 

Now, Mr. Trump has denied it happened, but it seems his aides were scared of talk about Martial Law by Mr. Trump and others in the White House. So much so, it frightened them so much they went to the press to tell them about it....These are aides who normally don't tell the press anything. 

Apparently the US Army took the reports seriously. So seriously, they issued a statement saying they  won't get involved in elections. 

Even the "My Pillow" guy is calling for "Martial Law." ( Doesn't he know he is losing half of his potential customers by taking sides?) 

So, you want Martial Law? Here is how it would look-

1. Not long after President Trump gives the order, armed units of men with automatic weapons move into all 50 state capitols with the goal of seizing election records and voting equipment. Rest assured, this would not go unchallenged as states resist what is literally an extra-Constitutional exercise of military power.

2. Police forces might attempt to block the takeover, but the military has been given their orders. The result will be violence. Police will attempt to arrest the soldiers carrying out their orders. Soldiers will resist being arrested.  No doubt the military forces will win, as they not only outnumber police but also are trained to close with and destroy the enemy — they are not and have never been a police force.

3.  Civilian unorganized militia — most likely organized under Antifa — will spontaneously emerge either in conjunction with or in opposition to local and state law enforcement to secure the ballots.  

4.  From there, the situation would deteriorate quickly, as images of dead police officers and civilian officials spread into the media. Military leaders would be forced to take over major media outlets and implement censorship to keep those scenes from reaching the public and inciting more violence.

5.  But the information will get out and violence will spread. Now the military is faced with an even greater problem — a very well armed resistance, with unknown firepower behind every door. Their response would be automatic — door to door searches and confiscation of firearms to remove the danger facing the troops until their election mission is finished.

 I don't think you want the country to look like Argentina.....Or Chile.....

Democracy is ugly. You don't always win. But you have one party running everything? Read about Germany, and Italy in the 1930s-1940s.....Or Spain from the 1930s until the 1970s.....Or Portugal 1933 to 1974....
