In recent weeks, there has been a lot of concern that an upcoming eight week military exercise on U.S. soil known as “Jade Helm” is actually a dress rehearsal for the imposition of martial law in this country. One of the reasons for the high level of concern is that we have seen a dramatic increase in the number of “urban warfare exercises” conducted by the U.S. military in major U.S. cities over the past decade – including exercises where “dissidents” are hunted down, arrested and hauled away.  As our world becomes increasingly unstable, and as our society rapidly decays from within, many believe that it is only a matter of time before the executive branch will have sufficient excuse to use the extensive martial law powers that it has been accumulating since 9/11.  When that day arrives, what will our nation look like?  What would actually happen if martial law was declared in America?

Well, the first thing that you need to know is that the U.S. Constitution would be “suspended”.

In other words, you would suddenly have no rights at all.

There would be no freedom of speech, no freedom of the press, no freedom of assembly and you could be arrested at any time for any reason whatsoever.

For the duration of the “emergency”, the military would be in control.  There would be troops in the streets, a curfew would almost certainly be imposed, and armed checkpoints would be set up.

If the “emergency” lasted long enough, we would probably see authorities go house to house confiscating firearms, ammunition and food supplies.

And perhaps most troubling of all, “dissidents” and “subversives” would likely be rounded up and imprisoned.

Perhaps you don’t think that this could ever happen in the United States in 2015.

  • Here is a news story I found that tells everyone what to do once Martial Law starts. It made sense to me to stop the forces in each neighborhood from forming, thus giving your city back to its community. Too, anyone can do it any city from a 12 year old to 90 year old. Must read and pass this on like I did. You will be amazed how easy it will be to remove the Government control over you. Bless all of you…

    Just sharing the truth with all of you on the stories I came across…

  • The Constitution does not grant rights to citizens, it grants enumerated powers to government. Therefore, by suspending the Constitution, the government suspends its own powers along with any legal authority, choosing instead to impose control through the ability that derives from brute force. The authority to do something, and the ability to do something should never be confused with one another.
    Martial law, the suspension of the Constitution, is a de facto declaration of war by the government against the people, an action which completely nullifies that government’s power or right to rule.
