FYI - I received a cancellation notice for my pre-paid lodging reservation to stay at a property in Arlington, VA for the Inauguration (assuming it would be TRUMP) on dates Jan. 19-21. I thought staying in VA would be less risky, but apparently the lock-down spreads out wider than DC itself. At least I'm getting refunded though, so that's a plus.

But there goes any hope of getting to witness POTUS being re-inaugurated and taking part in that historic event. :-( Wonder if my flights will also be cancelled. They're non-refundable flights, so I'm screwed if the airline themselves doesn't cancel them.

Here's the exact language from my cancellation notice:

"In response to local, state and federal officials asking people not to travel to the Washington, D.C., metro area during the inauguration, we are canceling reservations in the area and will not be accepting any new reservations at this time."

Are we heading to global martial law?.....?

Could be, but my guess is that Martial Law (if declared) would be more likely to just be localized in the 'affected cities' - such as capitols (including all 50 state capitols where the MAGA impersonating/Antifa-contrived "armed protests" are supposed to be happening) and maybe locations where traitors and perpetrators of crimes against humanity would be getting snatched. Pure speculation though.

I'd think that the good guys would prefer to NOT traumatize/scare the masses by having a nationwide Martial Law style lock-down, but it may be necessary to ensure public safety and to maybe stop all forms of travel (thus cutting off escape routes for the bad guys).

No idea what percentage of the U.S. population has ever actually experienced "Martial Law" but I can share my personal experience with it. I was living in W. Los Angeles during the Rodney King riots and it was a friggin' TERRIFYING scene. When they enacted Martial Law and curfews the military got all that shit under control quickly, and I was soooooo grateful!

Lucky for me, I lived across the street from a military base and soldiers on foot patrol all around the perimeter of the base would watch over me when I needed to walk my dog at night. I wasn't scared or traumatized by the Martial Law aspect whatsoever; I was scared and traumatized by the horrific violence against innocent citizens just because they were white.

And this violence wasn't just taking place in the ghetto areas like Compton - it was all over L.A. - all the way into the Santa Monica area where I lived off Wilshire less than a mile from the beach. Usually race-based rioters just burn down the shitty neighborhoods, but that rioting sitch was county-wide and reached well into the suburbs and nicer neighborhoods throughout West L.A. too.

Shit! ya, I remember the LA riots--I used to watch it everyday in the summer on tv--me and my friend would come inside on a hot summer day get a cool drink watch the riots for a bit--then go back outside--we did that all summer haha I was in grade 5

Good question.

Thank you, what are your thoughts on this---not much going on here on the west coast of Canada---just the usual wear a mask bullshit

We are pretty bored here in Southern California, too - something I never thought anyone would ever be able to say - but we are blessed with awesome, righteous Sheriffs where we live, who refuse to arrest people over mask infractions. God bless them!

If so, not for long, civilian laws are becoming sufficiently draconian.

Unfortunately, I think it could go either way. Either the subjugation of the American right is going to happen so quickly that we will not have time to plan how to defend ourselves, OR, Q and Q+ knew (know) what they are about. Sure hoping it's the latter.
