The First Thing You Should Do After Martial Law Is Declared
Our government declaring martial law is one of the scarier scenarios that we might be faced with.
There’s no saying just how thoroughly our civil rights might be violated during such a time, as the declaration of martial law carries with it the unwritten right for the government to do pretty much anything it wants.
It’s the ultimate totalitarian government situation. Some people complain about the violations of our rights that happened during the COVID-19 pandemic; that would be nothing in comparison to the atrocities that could happen during a time of martial law.
Actually, what martial law is supposed to be and what it often is are two entirely separate things. According to the legal definition, martial law is the military supplanting the duly elected government, for a short time, when the government is unable to fulfill its obligations to the citizens.
This has been very rare in US history. On the other hand, the government using troops, usually National Guard troops, to control the population and uphold the law is much more common, even though it is still somewhat rare. If martial law is declared, this is what we are more likely to see, even though it doesn’t fit the actual definition of martial law.
With that in mind, we need to prepare ourselves for that eventuality.
After the abuses of power that were perpetuated during the pandemic, I have a sneaking suspicion that there are those in Washington who are hungry to use… or should I say misuse… their power to control our lives again.
They will grasp any excuse that chance offers them or that they can create, in order to take that power and we will have no other option than to put up with it.
For many of us, our first reaction might very well be to ignore martial law and go on with our lives as normal. The problem with that, is that doing so just might put us in jail.
I don’t know about you, but if I’m going to have to go to jail for my actions, I want to make sure it’s for more than just thumbing my nose at some power-hungry politician. Martial law is not the time for taking such a stand.
There are a lot of things we could say that we should do, in preparation for the eventuality of our government declaring martial law; but in reality, they are things that we, as preppers, are already doing.
So, I’m not going to talk about them. We’re dealing with a different question; assuming that martial law is declared, what should we do?
Our Most Important Protection
The real key to surviving through martial law is making ourselves invisible to the authorities.
While there is always a possibility that they will go door-to-door, looking for anyone who might cause trouble; that’s unlikely. If it does happen, it will be after a while, when things settle down.
At first, they’ll be more than busy, just trying to put martial law in place. That includes rounding up those who have a demonstrated criminal history, indicating that they might cause trouble for the authorities. As law abiding citizens, we don’t fall into that category.
Ok, so how do we make ourselves invisible to the authorities? The simple answer is to bug in, staying in our homes. But before we do that, we need to make sure that we’re ready.
