National Guard? What does this actually mean?

Story time. In conspiracy theorists thinking. To create martial law. We’re already doing such a good job of quarantining you couldn’t even tell. Give or take the few herds that go out to do “essential” things. It’s funny how so many across the state are against the police. But are for them when this disease popped up. Covid-19 and other words such as “self-isolation”, “social distancing”, and “quarantine” are all magical words. And with these magical words we listen and we obey. No questions asked. We do the humanitarian thing and quarantine ourselves. Even though on any other given day we’d never perform an actual humanitarian thing in our lives. They keep pumping out the numbers. At first there’s high anxiety. Stress. People are calling the cops on each other or at least threatening to. We become our own police state othering people for going out. Then those number, those tested positive and deaths, keep going up. It’s worse then we expected. The mayor then SUGGESTS curfew. We in turn make it LAW. And the results are still the same cause people are still going on with their businesses. While those inside, with no job probably young, continue quarantining. Still obeying to LAW. We wonder how long this will be.

(Hoping the results are looking good by April 1st. But my boss says we haven’t seen the peak of it yet. So here’s to hoping. Back to theory)

Some people will start to get antsy. Why cause you can’t contain people forever. You can’t and if you think you can or are the rare that could. Well good for you. So while these people fester on when it’ll end, and it shows no end in sight, the state has the national guard on hand when they need them. For now doing what they can to make sure numbers don’t go up any further. Cracking down on curfew. Making sure people are really doing essential things. Everything you guys mentioned in this post. But those people who have ants in their pants start talking and bugging. They all start to leave their homes. They want to go back to their jobs. They want to go back to normal. They go out and the herds are huge. It doesn’t look good. So what do you do? You contain it. With what? With the national guard and police. Next thing you know they’ll be kicking down your door to test you to see if you have the virus. Taking those out of their homes if they do. Put those people in camps. Who know what goes on in the camps. And people can’t do anything. They took away our guns. People who tried to defend themselves died in the process or worse were thrown in the camps. And thus ending this conspiracy theory. Who knows if this will even happen.
