Martial law can only be implemented by an act of congress, and only in a specified area under attack by a foreign invasion. And only for a the period of time as needed to repel the invaders and restore the civil government.

All politicians, law enforcement as well as military have sworn an oath unto the Constitution, to defend it, as well as our Rights, against all enemies, foreign, as well as DOMESTIC. So, if there is no foreign army on your streets, but the president, and/or congress has declared martial law, they are committing treason and are DOMESTIC ENEMIES, and should be dealt with in the same manner as a foreign enemy.

That is why we have a God given, unalienable RIGHT, to defend our lives, which is protected by the Second Amendment. This includes the Right for citizens to form militias that are as well armed as the standing armies. For without that ability, what is to prevent another King George, or Hitler, or Stalin from coming into power, and murdering you and your families?

Did president Obama sign martial law on 19 March 2012?

No, this is another internet myth. The president has not declared martial law, on 19 March 2012 or on any other day. If there were martial law, you would see U.S. soldiers in the streets arresting large numbers of people and putting them in detention camps. This has not happened, nor is it likely to occur. Further, there is no evidence that Mr. Obama will declare martial law, contrary to partisan claims by some of his political opponents.

Who has the power to declare a martial law in case of a state emergency?

Who declares martial law?

The Governor of a state or the President of the US. The latter is debatable as the Constitution makes no provision for martial law, only the suspension of the Writ of Habeas Corpus. That right is seemingly left to Congress in Article 1 Section 9 of the Constitution regarding the legislature and the limits on Congress. As for the governor of States being able to declare martial law, the right would be left to the individual state constitutions as all rights not prohibited to the States are allowed them per the Tenth Amendment. Again, it must be emphasized that the issue is debatable.
