Because we are all so dumb, we need someone to think for us , RIGHT?
Wrong!
You may let them think for you, but I can think for myself.
I don't need you profiling 300million people's intellectual abilities in one statement, then turning around and justifying martial law with it.
Your cognitive dissonance is running it's course. You have no real arguments, you didn't when you came in, and you won't when you leave.edit on 19-4-2013 by muzzleflash because: (no reason given)

No, you cannot even come up with good metaphors.
Allow me to show you how it works :
It would be like calling a forest fire a marshmallow roast.
Calling martial law a "shelter in place".
It's laughable and utterly tyrannical.edit on 19-4-2013 by muzzleflash because: (no reason given)

1.) When it comes to stupid intellect, YES! Because you get hurt during an event like this then you blame them for not telling you.
2.) There was no Martial Law. Had there been, people would have been arrested for not staying inside like MANY did not.
Come at me when Martial Law is put into place WITHOUT REASON !

Sorry what I see in those photos is the local and federal LE trying to protect the public in a dangerous situation.
I have not heard anyone from Boston complain that the Shelter In Place (not Martial Law) was a violation of their rights.
Shelter in place?
Like a prison shelter you are kept in place at ?
What kind of twisted double think false terminology is this?
You are calling a city wide prison, a martial law zone, a "Shelter in Place".
Look at this people! It's utterly amazing!

Apparently the 4th amendment did not exist in Boston today.
You know what they say about sacrificing liberty for security....in the end you get neither.

You are making up stuff again.
Martial law does not automatically come with a provision stating people must get arrested all the time everywhere.
Perhaps you don't actually know what Martial Law is, or what it actually infers.
It has a lot more to do with "Military", than it has anything to do with "arrest counts".

In my eyes I see this as a way to get us to change our minds about gun control! Right after the public denounces gun control and look what happens! Well I was expecting a shooting but any fear based attack will due I suppose!
I also suspect the public will adhere to these acts of terror and give up their defenses! I suspect the cost to giving up our only defense against a police state will be more terror, less privacy, more unreasonable laws and less freedoms! I have always said that someday the US would resemble Nazi Germany and now it seems that day is close to becoming a reality! God Help the ignorant fools that usher in this day!

You know what though? What those who though all "heck" was going to break loose didn't happen.
I see two young adults, with radical views, that have created at lot of chaos and havoc.
Guess what ZERO, count it - Zero civilians were killed in this manhunt by law enforcement.
What is more, guess what - ZERO - law-abiding citizens took their guns out and started shooting it out at one another or at law enforcement!
That is a strong statement that the American people cannot be divided by terrorist activity.
