Pro Martial Law or Anti Martial Law?

[Supreemo]

,i just thought like this, if the society is uncontrollable by the government, it is already the time martial law will be decided or being promoted. I dont think it would harm the citizens living in that area as long as they follow the rules and orders of the law for whats best for them.

Im an anti martial law, if the country doesn't have any major problems. But if it does have a major problem such as rebels, terrorists, war, etc. Martial Law is needed for our country to be safe.

Pro Martial Law. But it really depends on the grounds. Declaring a Martial Law should have a base in doing so. But here in the Philippines particularly in Marawi City i agree in declaring Martial Law. It is to protect people in Mindanao.

Marshall law has been used and abused by a lot of leaders already in the past and that puts a dark bloosy stain in it. But we have to understand that given the right circumstances,marshall law is necessary. This argument again has been brought up with the declaration in southern philippines due to a terrorist group holding a town there affecting a lot of people. People still are incorporating marshall law to how it was used to suppress freedom a couplenof decades back by a past president. The current situation i think is a lot different from what happened then and now i think the cause is just.

Martial Law are initaied by dictators and tyrants who seek to control their citizens, it does bring about law and order but it takes away basic human rights from the people.

This isn't true as Martial law is sometimes used in order to stop violence from spreading in an area, it can be used tactically at moments where a country is facing interernal dangers (be it a coup) or something along those lines, and they must go into Martial law to coordinate the defense of their country.

If you go forward and even look online with something like this, you're able to see that developed countries use this all the time and it's not only used by dictators - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martial_law

Take a look and fix your argument.

I have seen situations where leaders invoke Martial Law to stop people from staging a protest against a corrupt regime, They kill protesters and later claim that they were staging a riot, with regards to what Duterte is doing i will call it a legit martial law.

I am in favor of martial law.  Well, there is nothing really bad about it and there is nothing to be afraid of.  If my country will be placed under martial law I think I will feel much better and safe.   There is nothing to worry about the crimes because there were policemen and military everywhere.  Even if you came home late, for sure you will feel safer.  It is not about the dictatorship, I see it more as safeness and the feeling of being secured.  And as a law abiding citizen, there is nothing to be afraid of.

Pro martial law, but it depends on the situation. If it is done for the sake of the country's welfare and the safety of its citizens then why not? Though Filipinoes often think of Martial law as something that is violent and cruel, a way that gets rid of the citizen's human rights and its all because of what happened in Marcos' reign. Martial law in his time will forever linger in the hearts and minds of every filipino citizen today.

I think it depends on the context if Martial Law is implemented and there are rules and standards and limitations then i think it would benefit the cou try long term. However a martial law that is used to incite tyranny and to lengthen one's rule is not welcome in this age of freedom and democracy. If used to provide improvements and public safety then I am all i.

When I will based my opionion from the book that I've read from my social science classes,I will definitely say Martial Law has done no good for the country and has recorded many violations of human rights. However,if I will based my opinion on what is happening today,I would say my impressions of Martial Law before is not what is happening now. Today,it was declared in order to protect the law abiding citizens from those criminals and unjust people.

I agree to you, martial law only bring many problems. One is many human right have been violated like many killings are happening. But martial law is the only solution to stop all the fight that is happening now in Mindanao. It will help those innocent people to be place in safe and arm forces of the Philippines helps already those soldier who fight first to finish already the ongoing war. So I am a pro but I am also anti because it will depends on what will happen.

I'm not a pro nor an anti martial law. I dont know what is the feeling  being in a martial law or experiencing martial law so really don't have an idea about it. For what I heaed from the people who exoerience it. Martial law is not bad. If you did wrong then you'll be killed but if your follow the law there will be nothing will happen to you.

[ttbd]

I'm a pro martial law. Less crimes to a society if they proclaim martial law.

Pro Martial Law or Anti Martial Law? Which is better for the public safety?

I am completely against martial law. Because, all of the tyrants are supporting martial law to manipulate their victims properly. Martial law are limiting human's freedom . As a result of this, Human rights are violated  by this horrible laws. Authorities immediately wipe martial law off from the earth.

Based on history that I have read martial law causes some danger in many people .also many people suffered from the governments hand because of martial law may people die and lost there freedom and opinions. So I am in anti martial law

[ecfel]

Martial law is good if its used for its purpose and that is to protect the people efficiently in times of crisis.

[TheGodFather]

[rowel21]

Martial law is a way to defend the republic to the one who wants to control it and steal it those revolunary every president will use this offense when somebody want to bring them down just for there own interest
You can never  say that martial law is a bad to declare just because there's a hear say of abuse not evry brain of soldier is controlled by president some times a lot of inhuman take anvantage of the situation just to make the administration look bad and evil

[RoronoaJorah]

I am pro martial law depending on situation if there's national threat mostly people in  those places under martial law are likely in favor of it for safety and orderliness.

[JesusCryptos]

I am much more in favour of martial arts versus martial law. Martial law sucks big time, while martial arts on the contrary is cool.
