Will they declare Martial Law, in the USA and if so will they then take our guns away?

I certainly hope not. I think this would cause a civil war for sure. I don’t think Americans will give up their guns without a fight. But let’s not go there. Staying positive and believing that most Americans will still stand for liberty if something like that ever happens, for now let’s set our minds that this will pass and we will return to normal life.

This is a topic not for this forum as it gets political in nature. I agree with Lynne, let's take this one crisis at a time and keep this thread to updates on the virus, please.
 
There are going to be lots of hard decisions to be made on Long Island before this is all over I'm afraid. They have over 65,000 confirmed cases on Long Island and it isn't peaking yet. When the facilities get overwhelmed that is when the death rate jumps up as it has in Italy. I wonder if they could bring in one of the big carriers and use it as a mobile hospital. Those things are HUGE and have lots and lots of space if they were to send their planes to a base. I saw where they had set up a MASH unit in Central Park across from Mt. Sanai. The hospital ship is there now and they are using it to move the non-CIVID-19 patients out of the hospitals.

The hard times will pass and we as a people will rise and come out the other side stronger. After WW! and the Spanish Influenza we had the Roaring 20s, After WW2 we experienced a huge rebound. Unfortunately, it seems that we must be tested fairly often and are past due for this.

The importance of information flow during this pandemic reaction will leave a deep imprint and the internet will have become nothing short of indispensable, if it wasn't already. I think that the only reason we seem to be surviving a shutdown of this magnitude is because of how much of the economy depends on the processing of pure information and how much economic activity creating the hardware and software that increases the fidelity, speed and dissemination of the information has caused. And this is why it is that so many can now work meaningful from home. The balance may be shifting significantly away from a so-called service-oriented economy towards an information-processing economy.

All good points, UT.
