Rule of law
Acosta said the President had the power to call out the armed forces
to maintain the rule of law and prevent any lawless violence under
Article VII, Section 18, of the 1987 Constitution.
She also stressed that police power is one of the inherent powers of the
state, alongside eminent domain and taxation.
She said that under the Presidents exercise of the calling-out power,
the authority of the President appears to be limited only to the
summoning of the armed forces to assist in the suppression of lawless
violence, invasion or rebellion through ordinary police action.
She recalled the 2006 Supreme Court ruling in David v. Arroyo, which
found unconstitutional several acts during the state of national
emergency declared in the aftermath of a supposedly foiled coup
attempt.
The ruling hit the warrantless arrests of Prof. Randolf S. David and
Ronald Llamas, the dispersal of the rallies and the warrantless arrest of
Kilusang Mayo Uno members, the imposition of standards on the
press, and the warrantless search of the Daily Tribune offices.
Martial law is the power that is most serious and carries the most
impact on the social and political life of the nations, he said.
He cited the Supreme Courts ruling in David v. Arroyo that said the
power is by and large a discretionary power solely vested on the
Presidents wisdom.
Does that allow police officers to search so thoroughly that they can
forcibly open gloves and baggage compartment? No, but they can
request you to open these and it would be wise for one to cooperate,
he said.
This is not the first time a part of the Philippines has been placed under
the state of lawless violence.

Prior to 2013, the last time a State of National Calamity was declared
was on December 7, 2012 by virtue of Proclamation No. 522 signed by
President Benigno S. Aquino III in the wake of the devastation caused
by typhoon Pablo in Compostela Valley, Davao Oriental, and Davao
del Norte in Region XI; Surigao del Sur in Caraga Region; Lanao del
Norte, Misamis Oriental and Cagayan de Oro City in Region X;
Siquijor in Region VII; and, Palawan in Region IV-B.
Prior to this, the Philippines was last put under a State of National
Calamity through Proclamation 1898{{1}} on October 2, 2009 after
the onslaught of typhoon Ondoy and during the rage of typhoon
Pepeng. According to a spokesperson of then President Arroyo, the
purpose of the declaration was to make the calamity funds available
for the local governments and control the prices of basic commodities.

MALACAANG
MANILA
WHEREAS, in order to carry out, as in fact they have carried out, their
premeditated plan to stage, undertake and wage a full scale armed
insurrection and rebellion in this country, these lawless elements have
organized, established and are now maintaining a well trained, well
armed and highly indoctrinated and greatly expanded insurrectionary
force, popularly known as the New Peoples Army, which has since
vigorously pursued and still is vigorously pursuing a relentless and
ruthless armed struggle against our duly constituted government and
whose unmitigated forays, raids, ambuscades, assaults, and reign of
terror and acts of lawlessness in the rural areas and in our urban
centers brought about the treacherous and cold-blooded assassination
of innocent civilians, military personnel of the government and local
public officials in many parts of the country, notably in the Cagayan
Valley, in Central Luzon, in the Southern Tagalog Region, in the Bicol
Area, in the Visayas and in Mindanao, and whose daring and wanton
guerrilla activities have generated and sown fear and panic among our
people; have created a climate of chaos and disorder, produced a state
of political, social, psychological and economic instability in our land,
and have inflicted great suffering and irreparable injury to persons and
property in our society;
At any rate, two (2) facts are undeniable: (a) all Communists, whether
they belong to the traditional group or to the Maoist faction, believe
that force and violence are indispensable to the attainment of their
main and ultimate objective, and act in accordance with such belief,
although they disagree on the means to be used at a given time and in a
particular place; and (b) there is a New Peoples Army, other, of
course, than the armed forces of the Republic and antagonistic thereto.
Such New Peoples Army is per se proof of the existence of a
rebellion, especially considering that its establishment was announced
publicly by the reorganized CPP. Such announcement is in the nature
of a public challenge to the duly constituted authorities and may be
likened to a declaration of war, sufficient to establish a war status or a
condition of belligerency, even before the actual commencement of
hostilities.
WHEREAS, the Supreme Court in its said decision concluded that the
unlawful activities of the aforesaid lawless elements actually pose a
clear, present and grave danger to public safety and the security of the
nation and in support of that conclusion found that:
Subsequent events xxx have also proven xxx the threat to public
safety posed by the New Peoples Army. Indeed, it appears that, since
August 21, 1971, it had in Northern Luzon six (6) encounters and
staged one (1) raid, in consequences OJ which seven (7) soldiers lost
their lives and two (2) other: were wounded, whereas the insurgents
suffered five (5) casualties; that on August 26, 1971, a well-armed
group of NPA trained by defector Lt. Victor Corpus, attacked the very
command post of TF LAWIN in Isabela, destroying two (2)
helicopters and one (1) plane, and wounding one (1) soldier that the,
NPA had in Central Luzon a total of four (4) encounters, with two (2)
killed and three .(3) wounded on the side of the Government, one (1)
BSDU killed and three (3 KM-SDK leaders, an unidentified dissident,
and Commander Panchito, leader of the dissident group were killed;
that on August 26, 1971, there was an encounter in the barrio of San
Pedro, Iriga City, Camarines Sur, between the PC and the NPA, in
which a PC and two (2) KM members were killed, that the current
disturbances in Cotabato and the Lanao provinces have been rendered
more complex by the involvement of the CPP /NPA, for, in mid-1971,
a KM group, headed by Jovencio Esparagoza, contacted the Higa-onan
tribes, in their settlement in Magsaysay, Misamis Oriental, and offered
them books, pamphlets and brochures of Mao Tse Tung, as well as
conducted teach-ins in the reservation; that Esparagoza
It should, also, be noted that adherents of the CPP and its front
organizations are, according to intelligence findings, l definitely
capable of preparing powerful explosives out of locally available
materials; that the bomb used in the Constitutional Convention Hall
was a Claymore mine, a powerful explosive device used by the U.S.
Army, believed to have been one of many pilfered from the Subic
Naval Base a few days before; that the President had received
intelligence information to the effect that there was a July-August Plan
involving a wave of assassinations, kidnappings, terrorism and mass
destruction of property and that an extraordinary occurrence would
signal the beginning of said event; that the rather serious condition of
peace and order in Mindanao, particularly in Cotabato and Lanao,
demanded the presence therein of forces sufficient to cope with the
situation; that a sizeable part of our armed forces discharges other
functions; and that the expansion of the CPP activities from Central
Luzon to other parts of the country, particularly Manila and its
suburbs, the Cagayan Valley , Ifugao, Zambales, Laguna, Quezon and
the Bicol Region, required that the rest of our armed forces be spread
thin over a wide area.
January -June:
2. Recruit and train armed city partisans and urban guerrillas and
organize them into units under Party cadres and activists of mass
organizations. These units must undergo specialized training on
explosives and demolition and other forms of sabotage.
July -August:
During this period the party expects the puppet Marcos government
to allow increase in bus rates thus aggravating further the plight of
students, workers and the farmers.
September-October :
a) Congress
b) Supreme Court
c) Con Con
d) City Hall
e) US Embassy
f) Facilities of US Bases
g) Provincial Capitols
h) Power Plants
i) PLDT
j) Radio Stations
CENTRAL COMMITTEE
PHILIPPINES
1. That radical left has increased the number and area of operation of
its front organizations and has intensified the recruitment and training
of new adherents in the urban and rural areas especially from among
the youth;
Done in the City of Manila, this 21st day of September, in the year of
Our Lord, nineteen hundred and seventy two.

happen-if-martial-law-is-declared/
Martial law may be used by government to enforce their rule over the
public. You may be interested to discover the answers of the following
several questions that come to mind
In the United States, there is precedent for martial law. The most
obvious and often-cited example was when President Lincoln declared
martial law during the Civil War. He suspended habeas corpus
throughout the entire United States.
I suppose that depends on the trigger and where people may stand on
that

No one man should have this much power. Only the congress
should have the power to declare martial law. I dont think all
of the US MILITARY will follow his orders, If the majority of
people is against it. I think he would use the homeland security
boys to do his dirty work.

Hawk,
It hasnt happened yet because it has never
before been the last year of Obamas last term.
Someone here said that Obama wants to retire
looking forward to his lifetime vacation. But
whoever is controlling him wants him to stay.
Hillary might be indicted; Sanders probably
wouldnt win; and I think it is too late for Biden.
So to keep power and to keep all Obamas
executive orders from being cancelled the first
day of a Republican administration, they will
declare martial law. (If they dont, then it means
the Dem candidate has the votes to win.)

At No Joke,
Isnt this one of the things we prep for. I am prepped
enough so that we could hunker down for well over a
year without any of your listed items. I am willing to
die to defend my preps and family. My biggest concern
is what would happen to the rest of my family if I was
to die defending them or the preps we have worked so
hard to acquire.

Dandelions
But in the end, it was always as the old-timers said you have
to get them when they are still young, just in bloom at the
latest. or they will spread like wildfire. Still the stupid
children would delight in finding the puffballs of seeds and
blowing them to the winds!!! And let just one seed land
unobserved, undestroyed and within all too short a time those
same cute little seed fluff flyers would take over a nice neat
manicured yard. For a dandelion colony once established will
not cease its efforts until every blade of green grass is gone.
Dandelions.

Im not ready but survival is all about not being ready but

in canoes and heading down river to deep woods, and digging
in! Remember to take RAT TRAPS with you, as they are the
snazziest small game trap available, easy to use, and hear as
well! You can survive with three of them alone feeding you

Like in any field there are most definitely bad cops that always
gain the most public attention.
I would submit that perhaps with police and military being the
minority, they are waiting for good people to take a stand
against tyranny and stand beside them. After all, they want a
bright future for their kids too.
Final note: Foreign soldiers will carry out the majority of the
dirty work.

I feel that if martial law was ever enacted anyone that preps
and follows this and other websites would know days ahead of
any event that would cause our President to act if history
teaches us anything nothing happens without warning like 9/11
Katrina our power grid is a waiting victim to either cyber or
EMP and lest not forget solar flare but at every level our govt
turns a blind eye to our nations most important system without
power watch how fast everything falls apart is it planned and
accepted just wait and see.

I am 72 yrs old and write this with trepidation but after seeing
all the
false flags that have happened in the last 15 yrs I honestly,
dreadfully
feel that life would be intolerable under martial law.
Our Country has been taken over by outside influences,
especially the FED
and IRS are both controlled by the same source which has
made life increasingly more difficult since 1913.
We have had traitorous Leaders who have been produced and
controlled and are not liable to the People.
And now a World Collapse and War will soon destroy all we
cherish.
It will take divine providence to save the World but perhaps it
is necessary for destruction to take place for Righteous Order
to ensue.

Not much will change, we will still see motorist being gunned
down in the streets, we still not be allowed to own anything
because if you dont pay the taxes on you labor youll be
thrown in jail, if you dont pay taxes on your automobile youll
loose your right to to travel in it, if you dont pat taxes on your
home youll loose your shelter. What ever you pay taxes on
you dont own, because if you dont pay those taxes youll
loose what ever it is they claim you owe the taxes on. If you
dont pay the income tax youll go to jail and loose your
freedom, Automobile taxes and youll loose your right to
travel, Fail to pay Real Estate or Property Taxes and youll
loose your Home Taxes are theft.

Tips
Unless you have just lost a war or been invaded, military
members are citizens, too, and though they may be
intimidating, don't be afraid to approach them for help or to
offer your own. In a major disaster, their main object to assist
the civilian authorities establish civilian control under martial
law.
Warnings
Do not bring your cell phone or any GPS enabled device with
you to your bunker. If you are found to be missing, the military
may decide to attempt to track you by using the signal from
your device. Remember that you will not have power so these
devices will be useless after a few days regardless.
Resisting orders during martial law may land you in jail or
worse. Remember that civilian authorities are well trained to
deal with citizens and even they do poorly at times. Military
personnel may be less tolerant and more forceful during an
arrest or detention.
Do not run from armed military personnel who have seen you.
They may shoot you.[25]
You may want to include a camouflage outfit in your go-
bag.[26]
