That's not what martial law means, at all. It just means there's some kind of crisis going on that they can't manage without suspending everyone's rights and putting the military in charge. It's not about who the army is ordered to shoot. Come on.
The reason martial law is inappropriate for today's "crisis" is because it's just the fucking sniffles.
No, it isn't. As a soldier, I carried a loaded rifle in plenty of circumstances where I wasn't allowed to just kill anyone that didn't do what I told them to. You don't know what you're talking about. Stop talking nonsense.
Right on. To add: Soldiers follow rules of engagements. These are direct orders from the Government. Soldiers are NOT to follow illegal orders. For example, it is illegal in Canada to use deadly force just to protect property. There is no "comply or die". The Serbs knew NATO rules of engagement. They knew they could steal whole convoys of food or help and NATO could not to a dammed thing about it. Same thing in Yougoslavia: Park a civilian car on a bridge and dumb Canadians could not bomb it. The rules of engagements are a legal document and it is signed. No politician would ever want their name on one.
Nobody said soldiers can't shoot people. I said soldiers don't just shoot everyone that doesn't "comply" with orders. You realize there's more option than "Shoot nobody" and "Shoot everybody".
then what's with the rifles?
What rifles? Where do you see armed soldiers being deployed for "climate change" or "vaccine hesitancy"? Where are you getting your information. wherever that is, stop reading it and look outside your window instead. It's not happening. You're going crazy with nonsense conspiracy theories.
If you hypothetically did see soldiers carrying rifles in a martial law scenario, those rifles are for combating mortal threats, and no, that doesn't include people not taking their vaccine or not paying their carbon tax.

Here, let's try this. Cops carry guns presumably for the same reason soldiers do in a martial law scenario. So why aren't the cops just shooting these lockdown violators on sight?
Stop being fuckign crazy.
Your perspective is a little skewed. You need to spend some time in North Korea, for a peek at the bigger picture.
