o'der leader - Welcome to the police state, comrade...

From: Off The Grid News Sent: Saturday, May 28, 2011 Subject: Welcome to the police state, comrade...

     You'd want to think that your government has your best interests at heart, wouldn't you? However, time and again they just keep proving that we're engaging in wishful thinking when it comes to the "why" of what they do and the legislation that they pass. In fact ...

     ... we are subject to a government that seeks at every turn to undermine our constitutional rights ...

Take these executive orders, for instance:

•  Executive Order 10995: Seizure of all communications media - radio, television, newspapers, CB and Ham radio, telephones and the internet (in effect, suspension of the first amendment)
  
• Executive Order 10997: Seizure of all electrical power and fossil fuels
  
• Executive Order 10998: Seizure of all food sources, farms and farm equipment. Food will be rationed. Today some states have anti-hoarding laws on the books, stating that anything over a one week's supply of food is considered hoarding and against the law.
  
• Executive Order 10999: Seizure of all transportation and control of all highways, interstates and seaports. Any vehicle, public or private, can be taken.
  
• Executive Order 11000: Seizure of all civilians for work under Federal supervision.
  
• Executive Order 11003: Seizure of all airports and aircraft, public or private.
  
• Executive Order 11004: Housing and Finance given authority for population relocation.
  
• Executive Order 12919: Directs various Cabinet officials to be ready to take over virtually all aspects of the United States economy during a "state of national emergency" at the direction of the president.
  
• Executive Order 13010: Directs FEMA to take control over all government agencies in times of emergency. FEMA is under the direct control of the executive (presidential) branch of government.
  
• Executive Order 11490: Establishes presidential control over all United States citizens, businesses, and churches in times of "emergency"

     These are executive orders passed by presidents -- Republican and Democrat alike -- elected to preserve our freedoms and the Constitution. Their very duplicities show that they have no intention of honoring the ideals of the constitutional republic handed down to us, that they are the very men that the Founders warned us about.

In fact, our Founders understood that this constitutional model could be overturned and made ineffective should the restraining power of the people against the federal government be made moot through judicial or legislative process.

     Men like John Adams, James Madison, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Alexander Hamilton all viewed the separation of powers to be indispensible to the continuation and preservation of liberty and the United States.

     So what does the passage of these Executive Orders tell us? It tells us this ...

     The dominoes are in place to subject the American people to a state of martial law nationwide.

     And the sad thing is, this isn't even a new occurrence. American presidents, governors, and mayors have flexed their martial-law-imposing muscles at various times throughout our history.

• In 1871, President Grant sent troops into South Carolina to confiscate all private guns.
  
• In 1914, President Wilson ordered the infantry into Colorado to disarm everyone involved in a labor union dispute, including members of law enforcement and the National Guard.
  
• In 1993, the U.S. Army provided advice, tactical support, and military equipment to the FBI and the BATF to raid the Branch Davidian compound in Waco, Texas, which resulted in the deaths of 74 men, women and children.
  
• Martial Law was declared by General Andrew Jackson during the War of 1812.
  
• President Lincoln declared it again during the War Between the States, arresting anyone who dissented from his war-time policies, including newspaper editors and legislators.
  
• In 1931, Texas Governor Ross used National Guard troops to enforce limits on the size of private property.
  
• Much of the Pacific Coast was under martial law after the attack on Pearl Harbor.
  
• And as recently as 2005, New Orleans was under orders of martial law after Hurricane Katrina, orders which stripped remaining law-abiding citizens of their ability to protect and defend themselves and their property.

     Not only do we have Executive Orders paving the way for martial law, we have precedence for it. All that's needed in order to put it into motion is a trigger point, whether real or imaginary.

     However, if you think the facts listed above are enlightening, it doesn't even begin to compare to the wealth of examples, information, and tips included in the book Understanding and Surviving Martial Law. This book is so much more than just a historical perspective. It also details how martial law is and will be imposed in America and how you and your family can survive.  With its valuable information and instructions, it is an excellent resource for anyone interested in learning about the history of martial law in America; the current martial law state of America; and preparing yourself for a state of martial law in America.

     The first step to defending yourself in any situation is to be informed about it.
