31. **WHEN** martial law is declared????? WTF?
Edited on Wed Feb-13-08 12:02 PM by benEzra
The meeting started off innocuously enough, with the speakers talking about corporate espionage,” he says. “From there, it just progressed. All of a sudden we were knee deep in what was expected of us when martial law is declared. We were expected to share all our resources, but in return we’d be given specific benefits.” These included, he says, the ability to travel in restricted areas and to get people out.

But that’s not all.

“Then they said when-—not if-—martial law is declared, it was our responsibility to protect our portion of the infrastructure, and if we had to use deadly force to protect it, we couldn’t be prosecuted,” he says.


WTF?

I guess that's why the corporatists consider it so damn important to take guns away from the little people?
