500,000+ Tucson, AZ Residents Are Now Technically Under a State of Martial Law
In a hushed session of the City Council on February 20th, the city of Tucson, AZ has declared a state of emergency and handed over control to the United States Air Force within its borders.
Though the citizens of Tucson may be unaware, they are now under a state of declared emergency thanks to their own city council. It could very easily be interpreted as a state of martial law:
“SECTION 3. WHEREAS, it is necessary for the preservation of the peace, health and safety of the City of Tucson that this Resolution become immediately effective, an emergency is hereby declared to exist and this Resolution shall be effective immediately upon its passage and adoption.”
I was able to find little to no coverage of this with local Tucson media sources, but it seems to be very clear that the city has given the Air Force the ultimate authority to make judgements in relation to national security over individual rights of citizens:
“SECTION 1. That the City of Tucson Mayor and Council hereby recognizes and supports the missions and long term viability of Davis-Monthan Air Force Base and the leadership of Davis-Monthan to make the appropriate decisions when balancing National Security and community needs when it comes to their existing and future military mission and assignments.”<snip>
