If Federal troops came to this area, I would do what they say to do, and hope to Heaven that whoever was directing them had all American's safety and best interest at heart.
People can think whatever they want about the terrible things truly happening in this world today but they are not anything I can make light of. I am not a person who in their whole life has had anything bitter to say about another religion, but this is far more than religion as we know it and joking about Isis as a garage band sounds like saying Isn't that cute, that child's body hanging from that tree. It isn't a joking matter.
I think jokes and sidestepping issues and changing the subject is a way some people deal with a fear too horrible to contemplate.
I don't know why martial law would be used except in a grave crisis. AND I still don't know what Redwitch means about the homestead act. There must be some political rhetoric about martial law that I am not aware of so as usual, I just think the way I think. I will not be directed by any politics in the face of a serious danger to our future. But why is martial law an issue?
