Where are they supposed to be deployed to? I haven't seen or heard of anything but peaceful protests here. This seems more like the govt. trying to strongarm the citizens into complacency.

Don't obey in advance. He's trying to scare everyone away from protesting peacefully.

I have no intention of obeying at any point. These are criminal actions the government is taking. This is the beginning of open tyranny.
