I just received a call from a reliable source inside a federal agency. They told me that they expect habeas corpus to be suspended and Marshall Law deployed in the near future. They could not go into detail, so something must be up. Wow folks, that is unheard of, just wow.

I heard the same, except my source gave me a date she said starting Monday. Get prepared folks!

Marshall Law from the Tekken series was a highly underrated fighting video game character. If I remember correctly, the secret was to corner your opponent and then just keep doing that backflip kick thing.

Funny you should ask.

Quote

On Monday, Florida Sen. Marco Rubio tweeted, albeit with a spelling error, requesting everyone stop sharing misinformation about the use of martial law to maintain stability in this ongoing crisis. He wrote, “Please stop spreading stupid rumors about marshall law. COMPLETELY FALSE. We will continue to see closings & restrictions on hours of non-essential businesses in certain cities & states. But that is NOT marshall law.”

Senators should probably have their staffs spell check. 

But the Martial law thoughts are way off base for now.  Almost everyone is staying home, Martial law across the country would be mostly pointless.

Yes I knew about the spam email campaign. This was different, I kind of wonder if the news from California has something to do with it. I don’t know, but this person was serious.

I think martial law is a long ways off. It would take a MASSIVE mobilization of LEO, National Guard, etc. to pull off. It's not like you could flip a switch on something like that in a matter of a few days.

Shelter in place orders? Yeah, those are gonna be widespread soon. If people would just listen to the damn CDC guidelines none of this would be necessary, but you still have idiot spring breakers partying on the beach, etc.

Richard Burr knew what was going on back in Feb and told a group of local leaders. Then sold all of his hospitality stock. Remember Burr is the Chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee.

Technically, they could declare martial law in some areas and suspend habeus corpus without mobilizing large numbers of troops.  It gives more authority to the government.  It would give them the authority to put people in jail for disobeying the commands to stay at home. 

Of course, putting large numbers of people in jail would kind of defeat the purpose of keeping them isolated.

If they told everybody to stay home for a week, a lot of this could get sorted out. I stop at the grocery store on my way to work if I need anything, just to avoid people. Of course, my wife had 2 drs appts today.

Italy has been locked down for a week and their caseload is still climbing. It's gonna take a lot longer than a week. Wuhan has been on lockdown for virtually two months now.

Here in Greensboro the local county jail is releasing all inmates with low bond amounts. I don’t know if that is to keep people away from the jail, or make room. One can wonder either way.

They're doing the same thing here in Jefferson County, CO. It's to decrease the density of the populations held so that they can more effectively maintain social isolation standards.

Your tinfoil might be wrapped a bit too tight.

      I think he did a solid job.  Honestly I liked his post game interview the best.  He gave himself a C and said he left a lot out on the field.  That kind of attitude can carry him far.

      This is lacking a fairly considerable amount of context. For one, Adams(age 22) started 12 of 16 games, had 38 rec, 446 yds and 3 TD's on 66 targets(18 less, with 2 less games started). The main thing missing here is that the top two WR's for Green Bay that year combined for about 2800 yds and 25 TD's. Now if you want to throw a more accurate dart at Adams, take a look at year two. This year the production was spread around considerably and Adams didn't stand out from that pack(pun not intended).  So, if XL struggles mightily this season, I would probably keep that comparison in your quiver to counter argue. I would suggest that I don't think that scenario is probably very accurate for most HOF caliber WR's taken in the first round over the past 15 or so years. Adams was the 89th pick overall, as well. A little different hill to climb than XL, although not massively.

      to clarify I am not referring to Will Levis.  Not knowingly.   I just made that up and tried to use a reasonable guesstimate of what else was done.  That sounded in the ballpark.  At one time I did look it all up and there were several teams that had much more successful days downfield.   If that happened to be Levis' actual numbers than it's more of a lucky coincidence.  If memory serves, it wasn't just Will Levis that brought the claim into question, it was SEVERAL teams had better days.  and you are missing my entire point of the subjective nature of it all.  If PFF employee Doug watched Bryce's film and then used his same unique subjective vantage point to grade all 31 other starting QBs.  Then dumped into into a spread sheet, it would a subjective Doug take but at least it would be a level uniform subjectivity.   The grades are done by various people.  All watching and applying their own subjective view to a play.  Everyone isn't going to grade incompletions out the same.  Or completions.   So when you dump it all into a spread sheet and hit sort.....it's not actually a statement of fact as portrayed.  Which is why you sometimes get some head scratching stuff.  I'm not reframing anything.   I don't think.  I just wasn't going to look it all back up so I was talking vaguely off the general issue I have with PFF and treating any random claim they make as the truth.
