5 Safest Places During Martial Law
The term martial law is a scary one to most people. It conjures up images of military lockdowns, armed and guarded checkpoints, regular inspections and the loss of rights. Most freedom loving people are likely right to be apprehensive about even the suggestion that martial law could be implemented.
With the state of the world today, owing to increasing government overreach globally at all levels of society and ever widening cultural and ideological gulfs, some are convinced it is only a matter of time until the unthinkable happens here at home.

One thing to keep in mind is that martial law does not necessarily mean a coast to coast replacement of civilian leadership and law enforcement with a military equivalent.
Martial law could be declared at a limited local level, in a given city or municipality, at a state level, a national regional level or even full-blown, federal sea-to-shining-sea level.
