NJ City Considers Martial Law

submitted by blankfist

1 decade 4 years 10 months 2 weeks ago

There is a breaking news story today that Paterson, NJ, is considering martial law by implementing an adult curfew at night in an attempt to curb violence. We went to Paterson, NJ, today and exclusively interviewed its City Council President about the proposal and asked people on the street what they thought.

We believe this is only a sign of things to come. When hyperinflation spirals out of control in the U.S., we could see nationwide martial law. [/yt]

Adult curfews ≠ martial law. But yes, I do totally agree with the fact that adult curfews are total and complete bullshit.

Moving this video to blankfist's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.

Adult curfews ≠ martial law.

Explain this statement to me. Maybe you don't understand martial law.. but they are saying anyone on public streets can be arrested. It 100% is martial law for 12am-7am. Do they have exceptions for driving or businesses? Are road blocks setup at the city limits to prevent traffic from travelling across city?

Are business like bars and hospitals and gas stations to all be closed at midnight.

I supposed this might be a no-loitering law, but from what they said it is a curfew. It would never last through any court challenge as they do not have this power except for emergency. Crime wave isn't emergency unless you can cite the public hazard. It also appears to be all-summer long kind of curfew.
