Is Martial Law Coming to Your State?
All Voices ^ | 9/10/09 | Write4Life

Posted on 10/09/2009 4:29:24 AM PDT by Eleutheria5

I have repeatedly written articles about the complete disregard for the Constitution of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts's as well as the disregard for the United States Constitution by elected officials in this State. Today, however, Massachusetts goes above and beyond into what can only be viewed as a true case of Big Brother knocking down the doors of American citizens. Today, by a vote of 113-36, the Massachusetts's House voted to grant the State's Governor the ability to force residents into mandatory vaccination in the event the Governor feels so inclined. It also grants him the right to declare martial law, to allow law officials the right to force themselves into a home without a warrant and to "contain" people for refusal to receive vaccinations. The bill also allows the State government to limit supply and distribution of antitoxins, serums, vaccines and antibiotics if it feels it is necessary, quarantine large areas of people and it mandates pharmacists report increases in antibiotic prescriptions.

if there are any conservatives in that state then why on earth would they live there at all.

When I say conservatives I mean those who believe in traditional marriage, normal families, small Govt, strong defence and not with the union

It's hard to comprehend that this is happening in America. Mass is the test tube lab for the rest of the country. And eventually, those "vaccinations" are going to contain more than anti-virus substances, of that I have little doubt.

There are bound to be a few members of Slytherin House that don’t hold with Lord Voldemort and the Death Eaters. Why they would stay there is an excellent question, though.

I was born here and cannot bring myself to leave. I do not know what it will take for the totally whacked out crazies to stop voting for the loons making these decisions. ...I cannot understand it (that's probably a good thing)! People are so liberal here, they cannot say when someone is doing a poor job - it might hurt their feelings, or look racist, or seem judgmental.

It is time for patriots to get out of that state, along with MD, CA, WA, OR,MI, NJ, NY,and a couple others. Now, they are playing with your very lives and the ability to escape.

Time for us to regroup!

I respect that. I just think its time for all who are holding the state together to get out, let it collapse under its own weight, and then return to re establish it. Those who feel as you do (and rightly so, about your home state I might add) are only delaying the inevitable collapse and ultimate rebuilding of a once great state!

I am originally from NJ, so I totally understand........

We have been asking the same thing for a while now. If we were not here lobbying in Boston, writing letters, visiting our reps. offices and homes, the senate version would have gone through and it is much more draconian than the one that passed the house.

I understand your sentiment but it raises some questions. How many times do people run before they take a stand and say enough? How many states do people allow to violate the Constitution by running before they stand their ground and say no more? Where do they regroup to that won't be effected by such unconstitutional acts?

And MA. (and Patrick) are going to get "WHO" to enforce this?

The State Police, the Sherriffs or National Guard?

This will play out very interesting and very bad for those who attempt this for as far left and loony as MA. is, I imagine there are a few people (who are armed) who will not acquiesce peacefully to this Unconstitutional invasion of their private property and I predict it will get very ugly.

One can only hope for a quick legal challenge and that the Courts will bitch-slap these clueless legislative, moonbats'.

One scenario that keeps presenting itself is the Libtards pushing Communism on us so hard that we rebel. Then they can use that reaction (whatever form it might take) as an excuse for martial law. Then they would begin complete tyranny, which is what they’ve wanted all along.

Pelosi, Reid, Obama are all little potential tyrants.

That is the million dollar question, my FRiend. All I know is there are so few of them in the states I have listed that there will be no resistance in those areas. While no state is immune, some are more prepared than others to stand and fight due to the mindset of the citizens. I know we sure could use a few hundred thousand patriots in FL, and TX, OK, MT and WY will probably lead the way. At the very least, when this whole mess blows up for real, I personally would prefer not to be surrounded by zombies....

After one more minute of thought, surely more than my reps put into it, will the quarantines apply for everyone EXCEPT the illegals. The governor has made the hands-off policy very clear; the State cops can't even detain illegals when stopped for driving violations.

I am as well. I am an American. I love my whole country, as I know you do. Just different schools of thought on what would be best for her. Not party, not state. I just feel that some states right now are a lost cause and may have to collapse under failed socialist policies before being revamped. MI is close, MA is as well. The useless eaters far outweigh the useful.

Sometimes the most loving thing you can do, and the most painful, is allow something/someone you love to fail; not to leave them down, but to save them.......

It’s up to the citizens of MA to rid their house of vermin or move to a sane state.

BTW, the legislative passed is not unusual. In the early 20th century, people who contracted communicable diseases like small pox were quaranteed by government decree. If you want to rid yourself of this law, demand that all people who have AIDS be rounded up and placed in sanitoriums.

All of these provisions are already in place in this state (since 1950), this bill simply expands the power to cover health emergencies and releives the state, doctors, hospitals, and manufacturers from any liability for any medical device, medicine or procedure.

So the really disgusting part is the law passed in 1950 was in response to the "Cold War" and those powers have been morphed to include any emergency; they have been used for a water contamination problem, a business closing and one other issue, weather related I believe.

What you’re seeing in MA is what America is going to look like if people don’t revolt. Corruption is what has given birth to the single party system Here. MA State government is a criminal organization. If they try to force their will on the people here in MA it will get ugly. There are many conservative hostages here!

Why am I still here? My ancestors arrived here in 1626 and my family has always been here. I have owed property in Amarillo ,TX If I were to move any where it would be there!

It’s all pretty much standard DHS/Patriot act fare.

What they’re doing in Mass. is specifically for this vaccine/flu. (thus having the Leg vote on it)

If that doesn’t set of alarm bells, (based on the insignificance of this flu) I don’t know what will.

I also understand your sentiment, wombtotomb. However, I agree with Man50D. I am an immigrant to the state of Maryland. I like my community very much. It is a bastion of red in a sea of blue.

If it is God’s will, I will make my stand here. My respectful request to all representatives and officials of the state government is to weigh the validity of any man-made law against the natural law and to enforce only those laws that you deem correct in your heart. For my part, I will conduct the same evaluation and I will only obey those laws that are valid. I have the means to resist and I intend to do so.

I just get irritated at the "the Black Helicopters are coming to take us all to the concentration camp" posts that are brought on by "new revelations" of things, like the fact that the government has the power to declare quarantines, and mandate public health measures during quarantines, which are in not new, but have been on the books, in one form or another, for centuries. If these things are a "revelation" to people, it is just because they don't know what the law already provides for.

Can the quarantine power be misused by the government to oppress the citizenry? What government power can't be misused to oppress the citizenry?

I'm all for eternal vigilance to preserve liberty, but the real threat IMHO, is not concentration camps, but the day to day chiseling away at freedom, such the FTC's new rules allowing them to fine bloggers for not following new rules that forbid bloggers to, well to do things the FTC decides it doesn't approve of, without defining what that means. That is a real, significant, and immediate threat to liberty.

I agree. there is a lot of over-reaction to this *flu* from both sides, creating all of this intrigue.

Trouble is, once one has submitted to the authority of the State, there's no turning back. If they choose to fine, imprison, take you weapons. your property or whatever, your options are gone.

Given the obvious principle/ideals of this current admin., I will have to proceed on the side of caution.
