(first there was the "What will the Rapture be like?" thread...now meet "What will martial law be like?")
What will martial law be like?
I'm not trying to be 'tinhatty' here......but since I think our country is quickly headed down the path of no return I thought I would start a thread to ask what it will be like....or could be like. Not sure if this is the forum I should post this in, but since it is sure to be a last days event I thought this was appropriate. Moderators please move it to the correct category if this is wrong.
So many people have bought up guns and ammunition....seems like it would be difficult for them to confiscate them all....how do you forsee them doing this?
Do you think our children will go to school as usual or will there be a total breakdown of this? I can see homeschooling not being allowed.
Will food be rationed? With all the stores we have it seems like it might be hard to do this.....if they purposely ration food, then so many stores will go out of business and then you have a loss of jobs and with people out of work that creates unrest and more of a problem on their end I would think. Better to keep us working and distracted so they can slide stuff by us.
I'm just curious what others are thinking on this. I guess a study of the Adolf Hitler years might be a way of getting a handle on how this could be implemented.

A study of Adolf Hitler might just point out that even in the worst states, you're in nowhere near as bad shape as the Wiemar Republic. Maybe if you understood WHY things happened the way they did, you'd shut up?
OOHH, he goes the whole post, and at the end, he Godwin's it. It was bad until then, but that just made it that much worse.

Who are you trying to convince? Everyone else, or yourself?
I think that all your ammunition and all your tins of baked beans will be magically transported to heaven, so that the 144,000 raptured will have sufficient food and ammo to fight the battle with demons on your behalf.
Of course that means that you will starve to death in your bunker, but then you know that you will be deserving of that anyway.
A study of Adolf Hitler and his relationship to bunkers suggests that when you get close to the end you poison your mistress and then get someone to shoot you and burn your bodies. You know it makes sense.
Have I missed a memo? Did the US vote Genghis Khan in as President? (Mind you even he's less right wing that GW)

Do they really think that they are going to be rounded up and put in camps because they post to RR?

Dickheads.
"I'm not trying to be 'tinhatty' here......"
However, if you were truly trying NOT to been "tinhatty" you would simply not say things which would make others think you WERE being "tinhatty" and you wouldn't have to start your paragraph by denying your tinhattery.
You *almost* made it through your entire post without godwinning yourself. Then you blew it.
And no, you aren't trying to be "tinhatty", you ARE "tinhatty".
I guess a study of the Adolf Hitler years might be a way of getting a handle on how this could be implemented.
And a study of the Adolf Hitler years nicely matches a huge amount of what happened to the US over the last 8 years...

Yep... that's just what Bush and co were doing... shame you didn't spot it then, eh?
See the difference between us is "massive".
You see doom and gloom and then proceed to flagellate yourself such that you may seem more pious as you think "piety is directly corelated to suffering".
We see doom and gloom and look at ways of fixing it.
oh wow, the entire thread is concentrated tin-foil. FEMA concentration camps, Nuclear Fallout, Bacchanalia during the Inauguration (as a smokescreen for... something), stocking up on pitchforks(!!!)
and then there's this morbid line
"Komm, süßer tod" = come, sweet death.
freaking death cultists
And four years from now, when none of this has happened and Obama is (hopefully) reelected, they'll still be screaming about how evil he is, probably with the added claim that his first term as just a ruse to make us easier to fool.
What will martial law be like? ... how do you forsee them doing this? ... Do you think our children will go to school as usual or will there be a total breakdown of this? ... Will food be rationed?
All these questions merely illustrate how worthlessly vague and inadequate your pathetic prophesy is. How can you be so utterly convinced of something you know fuck all about, just like everyone else in your cult?
@ navelgazer
She wants to know how much she'll be able to gloat while she's in heaven of course.
Remember, her lot doesn't expect heaven to be very engaging (can't say I blame them from the bible's descriptions), so they will need the distraction of watching the destruction of the Earth and laughing giddily.
Ok Rapturites. Look at the Baptists and Evengelical churchs demands for a theocracy of fundamentalism.
Nazi Germany.
This is a case of not even needing Kevin Bacon for an obscure connection, this is obvious at go. You are Nazis
You don't think so? You embody all Nazi agendas:
Christianize the world
Racism/White supremacy
Anti-semitism
Dictatorship
Bible-belt America is the most Nazi like place in the world today, a lot of you wear the label proudly.
"Do you think our children will go to school as usual or will there be a total breakdown of this? I can see homeschooling not being allowed."
FAIL. Right now, the 'Tribulation' hasn't happened, but even what private tutors and homeschooling parents teach their kids has to conform to the National Curriculum, which includes having to teach the Big Bang and Evolution as fact . It's the law. And there's a very good reason why any other form of teaching is illegal here; one word: China.
But hey, if you want to become second-fiddle to the new superpower, you go right ahead, Ruptured Retards. They effectively own your country already. Just remember the magic words, all you 'hoemskuled' kids in the US;
'Would you like fries with that?'
Moral: "I'm not trying to be 'tinhatty' here". But the way you swallow what Faux News feeds you - to say nothing of the bullshit you read on your own Ruptured Retards forum (which doesn't allow any form of facts-based discussion to the contrary; RR: North Korea in HTML form, much?) - like the good little 'faith'-blinded Teabagger sheeple you are, and how you think the "Left Behind" novels are non-fiction, to say nothing of the films (the two sequels being straight-to-DVD releases; you do the maths) you consider to be documentaries, you are .
Confused?
