The march towards martial law is something that is often ignored by the general public, often labeled as Quackery or something belonging on conspiracy websites.
What is martial law?
If you’re looking for a definition, then Martial Law basically means using state or national military force to enforce the will of the government on the people.
Under a declaration of martial law, Constitutional freedoms and liberties are suspended, and civilians are no longer entitled to their civil rights. It basically allows the government, to ignore the Constitution and impose its will through military force.
History of Martial Law in the United States of America
The Civil War Ushers in a Strong Central Government through Martial Law Enforcement
Flash back a hundred years, and many of the most egregious examples of martial law can be found throughout the civil war. While today’s history books largely ignore the real reasons for the war or the many atrocities committed by President Lincoln, the facts of what really happened cannot be disputed.
The reason we have lost so many of our liberties can be tied directly to the civil war.
On September 15, 1863, President Lincoln imposed martial law. While history contends the war was fought to end slavery, the truth is, Lincoln by his own admission never really cared about freeing slaves. In fact, Lincoln never intended to abolish slavery, his main interest was centralizing government power and using the federal government to exert complete control over all citizens. The abolishment of slavery was only a byproduct of the war. It actually took the 13th amendment to end slavery, since Lincoln actually only freed Southern slaves, not slaves in states loyal to the Union.
During the Civil War, Lincoln continually violated the Constitution, in some cases suspending the entire Constitution that he swore to uphold.
Many are beginning to think it is now time to once again impose Martial Law in order to preserve America.
Bottom Line...we must have law and order. We must regain control of our borders. We must deport those who pose a threat to America. Just common sense. Unless you want to see America degraded to 3rd world status.
