re: #168 Sol Berdinowitz

Exactly. And this is what scares me: there could be some natural and/or man-made catastrophe that could compel the government to declare martial law and call out National Guard soldiers to restore order and FEMA people to maintain infrastructure and critical services.

Do those fellows in the photo look they are going to cooperate peacefully and fully with their directives or see this as a chance to assert their inalienable rights as Sovereign Citizens?

No, but they look like fat, middle-aged dilettantes who wouldn’t have a chance against regular troops, or probably even against the reserves. I grant you it could get ugly.
