America – the greatest nation on earth – is currently facing unprecedented times of social unrest, and dare I say, this is just the beginning.
Regardless of who presides over the nation, we should always be aware of the so-called “shadow government” and their agenda. And mark my words: Our nation is in for times of massive unrest that were being plotted as early as 2015 and will continue until the “global agenda” pursued by George Soros and his allies is implemented. The coming out-of-control riots may lead to a call for Martial Law, as I will explain.
America has been preparing for massive social uprisings for a very long time (a quick research on the topic will reveal this truth). What I am about to tell you next might come as a surprise for some of you, but most of the things that we experience are being manufactured.
Never in my lifetime have I seen America so divided.
Our politicians and the mainstream media have been endlessly pitting various groups against one another for years, and everywhere you look, hearts are growing very cold.
Trump’s victory has come as a surprise for many, but if we consider the new state of play of the world, where the economic crisis has led to global divisions driving, thus, a return to national interests over the global ones, voting for Trump has been the obvious choice. During difficult times, we must safeguard the values and interests of the American people. But manufacturing nation-wide protests during confusing times may be just what 
some might wish for in order to divide and destabilize the country in exchange for the ability to control us at all times. In case we don’t comply with their “desires” we will face dire consequences, as the infamous Zbigniew Brzezinski, the imperialist/globalist/war-monger and former policy advisor to Obama, said:
“Today, it is infinitely easier to kill a million people than to control a million people”.
After some extensive research on the matter, I am inclined to affirm that what we’re currently experiencing is just the beginning, and the protests are rapidly turning into violent riots. Although many commentators are claiming that martial law will not be declared, we can never be sure of what is being planned for us.

Did you know that if martial law is declared, Trump will be prevented from taking office?
Returning to the fact that Soros is behind most of the protesters’ actions, we must acknowledge that the fundamental reason for inciting violence is to create favorable circumstances for the President to legitimately institute martial law if the riots continue on the same path. This is how it will work:
- The current protests are spreading rapidly, and when there is an increase in both violence and numbers, this movement will inevitably grow into a national riot.
- If needed, due to extensive clashes, martial law will be declared. Therefore, when this happens, Trump will not be able to take office because Obama will stay in power for however long is necessary until the “National State of Emergency” has passed (Bernstein), (AMBELLAS). There is a good chance that this has been the back-up plan for some liberals all along (as mentioned earlier, there’s proof the protests are being staged) in order to further advance the globalist agenda that has been denied by our President-elect Trump.
So, here’s a glimpse of how life will be when martial law comes into effect:
- Everything we own can become federal property (especially guns and food stockpiles, which will be the first to be confiscated).
- Curfews will be the new normal, while groups of armed men and women will patrol the streets at all times.
- Access to food, water and other resources will be rationed. If your life depends on a daily dose of medication, you should start storing it in advance.
- There will be sky-high inflation, and with a national debt of almost $20 trillion, the stage is set to sky-rocket a new financial crisis that will make the 1930s Depression look like a walk in the park.
- Everyone will be considered suspicious. A short chit-chat with your neighbor about the “wrong” things can put your life on the line.
- There will be no access to free Internet, while free press and the freedom of speech will be things of the past

The 6 Golden Rules of Surviving Martial Law
Prepper or no prepper, these are the 6 Golden Rules to follow if martial law comes to your town:
1. First and foremost, talk with no one and trust no one.
Although the clear majority of preppers are already set to outlast any scenario that cuts them off from all the common supply lines, we must remember that under martial Law, everything that we own is able to become government property. Therefore, do not tell people about your supplies or secret hide-outs. I know it’s hard not to brag about your preps, but be careful to whom you’re talking
2. Always renew your supplies and make sure you have a “basic martial law survival kit.”
A basic martial law survival kit would imply the following: electricity generator, water filters or even water generators (H2O Dynamo), weapons, food supplies for six months, first aid supplies, clothing for any type of weather, a flashlight, batteries, radio gear, and navigation equipment. Of course, you’ll need these if you want to stay put. If you want to go outside and face the music…that’s a different story.
3. Avoid getting in the way of law enforcement or the military.
Even though some would advise that we be resilient to any violations of your constitutional rights, which, by the way, will be justified under martial law, the best survival tactics are to keep your cool and think before you react. You can always choose to fight back. These two options – bugging in or bugging out – will cause you to probably face the hardest decision of your life.
4. Tune in and be up to date with the news.
It is crucial to stay informed and keep in touch with whomever you consider important. Every media outlet, as well as the Internet, will be controlled by the federal government, and you will not have access to any other information except what is being communicated by the state. Although this might be upsetting, you still need to know what is going to happen so you can be prepared for any situation.
5. Cautiously develop a survival network.
Establishing a survival network would be an excellent idea considering the fact that we can never know for how long martial law will be imposed. Consequently, setting up a diverse group of preppers will ensure your long-term survival. But make sure you keep a low profile so that you and your group will not be targeted as perpetrators.
6. Inspect and know your surroundings by heart.
You should be able to visualize your home turf even in your sleep. Ideally, you would also have a safe room. Make sure you have a blueprint of your area where you mark the closest escape routes, develop the quickest itinerary to a safe haven, and formulate the best and safest evacuation strategy.

I would add “make sure your bug-in or bug-out location is far off the beaten path so that the police/military will not waste resources trying to control your area”. We live in the middle of nowhere, hours drive from the nearest city and so sparsely populated that it’s inconceivable the government would send any uniforms our way.
Your place maybe out of the way, but never think you are invisible just by location. Technology can find a needle in a haystack, if there is something to look for…..
It’s not about being “invisible” – it’s about being “inconvenient”, and as much so as possible.
Drew: Best way it’s been explained so far. To pun it, inconvenient is truth 🙂
Drones will be used. ARMED drones.
I’ve said. This all along. This has been obamas agenda all along. I am old (79) but I will fight to the end. I will protect my family to the end. Some one has too stop this N ******* somehow someway. But I have had a good life believe in God I am retired army.
See my brother the nigger ant the problem.. its your white ass.. And all the other white man in high places …. Tell the higher up cracker to stop using him for a puppet
You are just as racist as the guy your responded to. End of story. Both of you are trash. And you aren’t my brother either.
When those what man don’t need this POS any more, they will throw him back to the sewer him and his husband came from. Are all you “Angelic” black folk going to take this half breed back? He screwed ya’ll as much as he did us. Oh, and by the way. All those sub human POS that are rioting are working for a white man. GEORGE SOROS a Nazi. He hates blacks more than anything in the world.
Lol. Obama AND the rest of the crooks (pick your color) are the problem. Any one of any color that decides to stand in the way will be dealt with
What is wrong with our Republic started many decades ago. However. Obama almost fricking destroyed this country, & still may, seeing what’s really happening with my eyes wide open Our country is more divided than ever in MY lifetime.
And, BHO is still causing problems when he decides to speak out & give the loving masses what they want. The unawake, and controlled, masses of people out there is very disturbing. As they will only present problems & issues for everyone around them. And, they will seek out prepared Patriots and we must be ready.
Be safe & be prepared – for anything…..
Why do you have to call him a nigger…stop the name calling if you are truly a child of God then stop calling people out of their name…
read story of noah and how Ham, NOAHS SON and his family were being cast into Ethiopia an became the scerge race when god cursed him and his decedents because disrespect for authority, for his and their till he comes back for ALL his followers. and belivers..*( even “them”), but they SHALL b the servants of men, him and all his decedents for his mockery ,so as god stated it with. (let your yeas be yeas and nays b nays ?),,he didnt pussyfoot around with political correct speech if ur a cursed race ur a cursed race…just beleive in jesus and follow his golden rule
Please read a little further. Ham’s descendants eventually were all wiped out. That is the end of the discussion about being cursed. Aren’t you glad?! The dear God who made us both loves and made us all.
How did you become such a racist ass?
Linda: Communists always are. Bull doesn’t know any bible. He’s using Hitler’s (a communist) Bible. niio
Must not add disparagement to comments about ‘bama. Yes, he is of color, more important is his agenda under soreass and bloomingidiotderg. I’m in agreement about martial law and riots against the government. If ONLY five millions of people have arms, that FAR outnumbers the US military so he will invite the UN to send troops to “maintain order” and china and russia will send troops as well as african dictatorships. The dangerous times are nearly here, ‘bama awaits ANY EXCUSE to institute martial law; be calm and give him NO REASON to use his ONLY weapon against the USA. Be ready but be calm.
I read from a reliable source that congress and senate voted that prevents obama from making any new laws from now to the end of his term.
You are what’s wrong with America. I hope Obama set up these FEMA camps just for people like you. It’s time this country goes back to its original owners, and you hate-mongering thieves need to be sentenced severely for generations of crimes.
Who are those original owners? The “peaceful” tribes who were constantly warring with each other? You think we owe reparations because our ancestors came here in a boat? Well sister, come and get some reparation! What caliber would you like?
No country is really “owned” by anyone. The whole Earth was made for us all. Mankind was told to multiply and fill the Earth by God, who created this globe for us all. That means, don’t hole up in cities (like Nimrod’s Babylon), they are unnatural and a habitat of wickedness; but spread out and travel around the globe and settle where you can raise a family and till the ground. That was God’s original purpose for man and will be again, under His kingdom rule. Every man will eventually “sit under his own vine and under his own fig tree” and the “lion will eat straw like the ox and the little child will play upon the hole of the asp and there will be no harm or any ruin in all my holy mountain.” This is NOT be brought about by man, but by God.
your right im bout as much indian as obama “”wont”” claims to b white,,ud have to fend for ur self and starve probally becaus ur pussy would b worthless their would b so many n supply chain for resourses , it might get to smell food but thats all,same with the hard dicks ..u didnt get to eat have shelted and fuck off time in those days just becaus u demanded it..u starved or were killed when u came to steal a meal,,dont think so go to third world countries that have tried ur socialist and commie policies ,,try china middle east or africa then see if u will have same thoughts ,, ive been to those diease fill vestags of human corruption ,,as badd as i say it for i may get swamped ,,we neeed a dose of it here again like the depression on steroids ,,idiot
Deez nutz are your reparations. Indians are the biggest group of conquered crybabies I’ve ever seen. I grew up on tales of tough, warrior priests of nature. Now I see people crying white men caused their hangnails. Not to mention everything Indians say and do now invalidate ANY chance of me believing their way of life is in any way superior to anything the white man does.
Tall: You saw caricatures, not Native Americans. You saw apples and stands around the fort. Yeah, my ancestors were superior to the whites. Whites came here and died like flies because they refused to adopt new ways. Puritans starved all one winter with a sea full of fish, shores full of clams and oysters, lobster, all free for the taking. Yet, they refused to try new food. How many homesteaders suffocated in the Great Blizzard? thousands, because they refused to leave the comfort of the soddy for a tent that the snow blew around, not covered. We’re not the ones to create a liberal, anti-American climate. We vote conservatively in way far high percentages than whites. Whites are demanding little boys have sex changes. That’s grotesque. You whites (race, not meaning you) demand we accept gay as normal, atheism which has never been proved, and a thousand other things any Founding Father would have puked over. The average ‘skin is closer to them than the average white today. We were fine with reclaiming lands, but the neolibs, the race baiters, stopped it by claiming most such land is now a federal forest. We got the very worse lands and built on them. When whites do learn how to survive SHFT, then you might have a leg to stand on. Till them, you’ll do like we do or go the way of the colonists who starved or killed each other for a bite of food.
Only the House has passed it. Once the Senate has passed it Obama has to approve it, which he will veto it of course. Then both Senate and House must pass it by 2/3 vote before it could become law. By then we are 6 months down the road.
This is all biblical and if you take time to read your bible and stop all the name calling then you would understand that Gods will is being fulfilled…
Amen sister! God is in control, if marshall law is invoked, we will be home soon!
now I get the scripture that talks about God’s children,
praying come quickly Lord Jesus,,come quickly…the idea of marshal law scares me to death.im in the country and I know people will flock out here…
It’s not God’s will, He’s telling us the consequences of mankind’s sinful choices. God’s will is what He created us for.
If gods will results in me or my family being hurt or killed, then I want nothing to do with his will or plan. He has.no vested interest in our lives and happiness. Don’t believe me, ask anyone from a third world country how loved and happy they feel with God looking out for them. Ask the kid dying of pneumonia if he feels God loves him.
God didn’t make these third world countries. Man made them.
Lab: Yes, He does. Been there, done that, and got the scars to prove it. Before fighting God, you need to be educated on God. Then fight. Then people will respect you and listen. God put you in control. He gave you the means to combat, His Spirit and medicines. Ask of Pasteur about how he developed vaccination. God done it. He was only along for the ride. Peace. You did a righteous post but…
Please listen to yourselves, are you helping to bring Peace and Unity? You’re bringing further division. If mr Soros is behind this, call him before Congress, the People, and the Courts. Our Best bet, in a world that hates us, is still each other, the nation survived a Civil War, we can survive this too.
Dge, don’t you know that our government, the congress and the courts are largely owned by Soros and his ilk??
There’s another Civil War coming up soon and when we wear each other down enough, russia and china will come in and pick up the pieces quickly and easily. I don’t want that to happen! Let’s get back together and survive as a society and a nation. If we fight, we ALL lose.
Yes. Another civil war IS coming. Could be as soon as the 2020 election. Because when Trump wins – again – I believe the left will take to the streets. And, there are a lot of gun owning dems even though they vote for people, trying to take our guns. I don’t understand the logic…..
The first issue will be Patriots dealing with martial law as they are hounded by the masses that have no clue as to how to survive. Then will come different Patriot groups trying to hook up. However, have you noticed any infighting among Patriots??!!?? I have. Too many chiefs. Not enough indians. It could bring down the Patriot movement altogether.
God Save America. Be safe. Prepare, Patriots. Prepare.
On a side note. If you do not own a handgun. Get one ASAP! Practice (getting some coaching) and get your conceal carry license. I carry everywhere I am. It’s all part of getting ready to leave home. I have my gun. A knife. A mini flashlight. A multi-tool. My cell phone. Hell I need to get some type of ‘duty belt’ to carry everything because I’d like a compass on me. With my main pack in the trunk.
I always keep a full tank of gas. Never let it get below half a talk. Because you never know when you might need to take off in a hurry. I could live off what’s in that bag for days and acquire water easily. Plus water packs. JIC.
Be safe. Prepare, Patriots……
I agree that we are far from ‘Peace and Unity’ and Obama had a lot to do with it all! He’s still making appearances and speaking out about the sitting President. I believe it’s unprecedented. Out of mutual respect for the new President. Not BHO!! Someone should take that man out. Hillary, too. If she’s elected. Expect martial law in order to take our guns. Thus a 2nd civil war….
1 Thess 5:3, “Whenever it is they are saying “Peace and Security!” then sudden destruction is to be instantly upon them…” Many people are predicting many different signs, but according to the Bible it is when most are least expecting it, just when some national or global government has declared that they are now in charge and have established “Peace and Security” throughout the world with their man-made system of things, that Jehovah’s day is coming “exactly as a thief in the night.” Just saying, keep your eyes peeled…
Paranoid white racists are so tiresome. Obama has been the cooling president ever, it is a pity that he cannot stay on another four years.
Why are the hillbillies so obsessed with Soros? Really stupid and childish.
The really stupid and childish is you.
If you don’t believe in conspiracy you are living in denial.
Obama has been in so far over his head that he is/ has been a non president. We have been without leadership for eight years.
When no one is in charge chaos follows. World disorder, Ferguson, Baltimore, etc.
The hillbillies want a real leader. A street tuff from New York is acceptable…
OMG, and we need Him, a very insightful article like this really brings out the dregs of society, huh. You people STOP call each other, who seem to be on the same side, stupid names and prepare for the the events that will probably fulfill Bible prophecy! We, folks, are approaching the end times and this could happen soon, very soon! What good patriots need to do is band together and not start calling each other names.
I will not call names but only agree and disagree with comments previously made here. This land was taken from the Native Americans by force. As for the “warring between tribes”, what exactly do you call what is happening in this nation, as we speak? The people of this country are being manipulated into hating one another more than some already did. Certain people in our government and different groups want separation among us…and guess what… They are accomplishing just that. It is time for us all to read between the lines people! We are a nation devided by race, color and creed, by a manipulative government! This what they want.One Nation under God!!! I am still praying for America and the American people to turn to God…He is our only Hope! God Bless you all!
To all the people saying Martial Law is Obama’s fault. It’s not just Obama’s fault it’s Congress and the entire the federal govrnment’s fault.
Wow, I’m coming late to the discussion but I have to OMG. I do fear ML will keep Trump from taking office. I truly hope not, but the way things look and have been handled for the past few years I am afraid that’s most likely where we are headed. All the race hating and bating really pisses me off. I personally am a mut. My moms side I am Cherokee and black blooded, my dads side I’m Irish and Scottish blooded. My side, I’m an American. It really upsets me that grown folks theses days are still acting as if it’s the 1800’s . There really is more important things to stress over and fight for. Like family, surviving in uncertain times and teaching our youth how to have a better life. I know ppl are race batting to cause civil unrest. I know you can all see this to. Why let them win such a childish, immature and pathetic scheme? The race baiters have an excuss, STUPIDITY we don’t. If your smart enough to see what they’re doing then you’re smart enough to NOT get caught up in their pathetic games.
if you think Obama is really black,you all need to do your home work.look at his face really good,they got modern day tech.he,s been put there & molded since a child,and there is a very good reason they invested in molding b.o.,yes its part prophecy.(its been put together to fool you all to make hate wars,look up albert pike for starters,peace.
The globalist agenda has always been to divide and conquer. Now that Trump is in office, we have a chance to prolong our freedom just a little while longer before Martal Law is declared through anarchy. It’s the globalists that staged 9-11 and the other terrorist attacks in preparation for ML and their ultimate goal is to destroy America financially.
The first 5 seals noted in the book of Revelation have already been broken. And once the treaty has been signed to share the temple mount so that the Jews can rebuild the temple, the tribulation period will begin.
Our prepping is for the soul purpose of surviving the tribulation period no matter what race or creed that you belong to.
God has always used people both good and bad to accomplish his will. It’s our responsibility to do what God tells us to do! After all, the real battle is for the souls of humanity.
There’s a school of thought that believes that the Pope speaking to Congress was a fulfillment of the Abomination of Desolation. Apparently the facility was used for religious services for years when they weren’t in session and Sundays. If this is true and not just an example of replacement theology time is growing very short and we need to “flee to the mountains”.
Not anti Catholic btw, but this pope is weird. He allegedly came out just a few days ago in a magazine article saying hell doesn’t exist. Vatican’s been on damage control since….
It’s a little tough to do #5 if you’re following #1.
ICBM; It is just a suggestion. One does not, have to follow this or do anything. See, “CAUTIOUSLY?”
5. Cautiously develop a survival network.
I have fought in 2 wars Korea and Viet Nam, 50 thousand killed in each of them. Compared with the coming war (if people don’t quit whining and the politicians don’t start worrying more about the country than bribes and votes. If we wind up in a civil war you can blame it on the Democrats and their Lap Dogs, the main stream news. A civil war would most likely lead to wwiii. If you don’t believe it is coming read Matthew the Chap. 22-25 what is supposed to happen just before the end. Then, what will the very few that is left argue, whine, and fight about ?
EMP protection setup for: notepads yes one is none, USB charger (s) 12 volt and solar chargers with all the books one could ever obtain on micro disc. Should be as protected as any weapons, there are no honest politicians when it comes to martial law or shtf. I’ve a system to rotate the 3 notepads to sync with the sacrificial cell phone I carry and research on. I’m sure all of you can improve upon that.
Keep your preps hidden, your families close and your plans to yourselves. You can survive. You can make it through just about anything. Just don’t delude yourselves, there is a very real possibility, that you and all you love will be destroyed. You aren’t invincible, no matter how much food and water you have, how many guns you carry or how deep your bunker is.
Nothing is permanent. Nothing.
I came to the site to learn how to prep, and prepare for the end. I did not expect to see so many racial slurs, political jabs, and holy and truths about everything. I’ll pray by myself and keep to myself, I don’t like this site when you all argue in a racist and politically fighting. We need peace you people. That means loving everybody no matter their political views. Oh by the way I did not vote for Trump.
Wow,. What happened to the ‘martial law’ that was supposed to happen under Obama ? Now we have this idiot for president that knows nothing of law, except how to use it to cheat people out of their money. Knows nothing of working with other countries to get something beneficial for everyone. Would you make a deal with a neighbor that said ‘ I can help you defend against the bandits and thieves that steal your crops too, but this year I want half your cattle instead of only a half dozen’
Who has Trump cheated and where’s your proof? It’s very typical of the left leaning libtards to make accusations about which they haven’t any PROOF!!!!! Where is your proof, Tommy, where is your proof? Trump’s worked with North Korea, Mexico, Canada to stabilize Asia and to remove the unfair aspects of NAFTA. The national economy is booming, minority unemployment numbers are the LOWEST ever recorded and job creation is extremely high. Too bad you’ve been easily brainwashed by the Dems who STILL to this day keep many blacks in the ghettos/projects so they can be manipulated and live on handouts and false promises by the same political party that kept them as slaves. You’re an idiot.
Black unemployment was lower in 1859 than it is now, just sayin.
Tall: Black unemployment is always low. You mean African American neolibs who wanna go back to the plantation.
with all we have to worry about,do we need the racism. how about trying to fight this evil together.
I took the time to read through all of these messages, and the one that made the most sense to me was the one from Nan. I,m afraid however that no one in this day and age has enough sense to pay attention to her wise advice.
It is now over 2 years since this was written. While I whole-heartedly agree with the opening statements about politicians and media trying to divide us and pursuing their own agenda, I’m pretty sure we know now that Obama is not declaring martial law. Try to be level headed, look at everything from different perspectives and try to be reasonable about understanding others point of view…even if you disagree. The vitriol in previous comments is not doing anybody any good. There is so often a kernel of truth in things, yet we are forced to be 100% one way or another. Racism is racism regardless of your color or origin. Wow! Some awesome people here and some awful people.
Trump will not be able to take office because Obama will stay in power for however long is necessary until the “National State of Emergency” has passed (Bernstein), (AMBELLAS).
You need to update your information.
What a bunch of Assholes you people are.
Yes! I lived in Penna, where you can get arrested for driving while Injun. One-party rule and rules are made up as they go along. If you dare protest, you can be arrested and tried on bogus charges. If your family makes trouble and the cops can’t stop them, expect local Nazis or KKK to ‘talk’ to them. Those last two will be the snitches; but anything Soros has a dime in, antifa, alt-right and more. Expect trouble, but always keep calm. Anything considered out of the normal is suspect, and you do not want to be a person of interest. Divide and conquer is how nations fell. A nation divided cannot stand, and that’s neolib textbook teaching. Stranger equals enemy, so if you have to bugout, make certain folks know you, and know enough about you to not report you.
So if Soros is the problem why hasn’t that problem been eradicated?
Why is it always George Soros gets accused of running these things? Why is it always him in particular?
I’ve been wondering exactly the same thing!!! Will SOMEBODY please answer this question, giving references for any allegations? Many TIA, Greenie
Soros funds the communist groups in the USA, including the Libtard DNC, Anarchist / Fascist groups like ANTIFA (the name is a lie, they are definitely Fascist) and many of the upper echelon of many Federal Agencies, such as the FBI and ATF.
705,000 whites (mostly males) had to die in the civil war so that blacks could be free. Free from the 2.65 % northern and 1.75% southern greedy white anglo saxon protestants who needed them for their plantations and factories. And btw, a lot of southern organizations were actually owned by yankees.
This had the result of cancelling out close to 700,000 possible spouses, 1.4 million children in the 1865+ generation, 2.8 in the 1890+, 5.6 in the 1915+. 11.2 in the 1940+. 22.4 in the 1965+, 44.8 in the 1990+, and 89.6 in the 2016 generation. That’s almost 175 MILLION. Enough is enough with this government.
Wow, this article is 8 years old, and it is not out of date. We face the same situation now, in 2024, and even worse. It is even more likely there will be civil unrest and martial law now. I already live in my bugout place, I retired there. So from now on, I will only bug in. But it is best to become as invisible as possible during unrest.
