Those who trivialize martial law may regret it– While I consider myself lucky enough to not have experienced martial law as I was not yet born then, nevertheless the good school I came from in Diliman had allowed me the opportunity of extensive learning on the subject and more so I have also had the opportunity to discuss with the numerous victims of martial dictatorial rule experienced during the 70s by this country. Their accounts and experiences make me truly lucky not to have been born then.
If we are to base numerous historical accounts based on actual personal experiences of martial law victims, I cannot by the life of me imagine any sane or rational person approving, much less wanting martial law, and to trivialize it the way a lot of the younger generation are doing right now in social media is truly sad. These IDIOTS who trivialize martial law must have forgotten that all this freedom we are enjoying right now is a product of our rejecting martial law in the past.
Perhaps they had forgotten that during martial law, the first that could go is your fancy internet and social media. Second to go is your outspoken criticism against anything under the sun. Third to go among your civil liberties are your unlimited freedom of access and rights to whatever, etc. and Fourth is you’ll have a greater risk at getting picked up by the military forces, detained and never to be seen again.
So you IDIOT people who are either too dumb or numb to understand the ramifications of martial rule, I pray that you or your loved ones will not be among the victims or beneficiaries of martial law. Allow me to share with you , the wiki definition of martial law https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martial_lawMartial law is the imposition of direct military control of normally civilian functions of government, especially in response to a temporary emergency such as invasion or major disaster, or in occupied territory. Martial law can be used by governments to enforce their rule over the public.

Mental Conditioning– While I did not personally count the number of times the almighty PDigong had mentioned is his speeches the possible imposition of martial law, according to some accounts, he had mentioned this in around over twenty times. My God, what is that, is that some kind of subliminal yearning desire to declare it at all cost while getting our minds conditioned through mental conditioning? In my humble opinion, an honest and loving father of the land would at all cost want to avoid the declaration martial law, martial rule is viewed as a last recourse remedy to a very bad situation or situation leading to a very bad ending. In the present case, after having gone through the Zamboanga siege and others that did not see the previous Presidents as trigger happy martial law declarants, it is truly a wonder for yours truly as to how come martial law was declared by the almighty PDigong in this instance. Not content with his declaration, our very eloquent almighty PDigong just had to leave that threat or possibility of seeing martial law declared throughout the whole archipelago. My God. Should martial law be declared in the whole country, one can kiss tourism, investments, growth etc good bye and welcome extreme poverty.
If this country hasn’t yet completely gone to the dogs , it certainly is in a hurry to get there!
