Obama’s former Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel said “Never let a crisis go to waste”, something that the government of New York City seems to have taken to heart.
As the biggest snow storm this year advances towards America’s largest population center, the authorities have basically declared martial law. Citing the massive storm as too big a threat to disregard, the New York Police Department is threatening to arrest anyone who travels on the road in the coming days.
Calling the radical measure a “travel ban”, the NYPD say it is meant to protect New Yorkers from the potentially devastating weather. Drivers do not even need to be committing a crime to be arrested: they simply need to be on the road for law enforcement to apprehend them.

Apologies everyone, this could read more accurately. Change “going outside” to “driving. And change “facsist police state” to…well, you can leave that.
And you thought it would never happen here. How is that hope and change working for you???
Figures
gotta love misleading headlines.
To me it seems like their trying out their ‘MARTIAL LAW AGENDA’, huh?! Trying to see what the peoples reactions are going to be, and how they can counter it, too. ‘THIS IS JUST A TEST, ONLY A TEST!’ Remember those?
I understand no driving! BUT! to tell any person they can not go outside? GET RID OF THE EVIL PUPPETS!
Seems like NYPD is preaching common sense to the people!!!!!
Welcome to Amerika!
BUT ITS ALL RIGHT YOU GO
OUTSIDE TO PEE AND$#%&!@*ON THE SIDEWALK.
I live in Montana, and could not imagine being told I can’t go out and play . We drive in these circumstances on a regular basis. It’s not a problem, you have to slow down, don’t be in such a hurry. But I could not imagine being told I can’t leave my house, I can’t drive. Get ready for a gun fight.
