Overthrown - Death of America - Index
BW
Kathy couldn't believe this was happening. After all, this was America,
it couldn't happen here. But it was. Before the power had become so
unreliable, and sporadic, she and her husband Tim, had seen the
President come on the T.V. to talk to the American people. New York,
L.A., and Washington D.C. had been hit with nuclear weapons. What
hadn't been wiped out by the blasts, was so contaminated by radiation
that rescue operations would be delayed until the radiation had died
down. But until that happened, martial law was in effect.
With most of the military engaged in the middle east, the President had
an idea. One that had been on his mind for a long time. N.A.T.O. troops
were already in America. Some had been stationed on active military
bases. Others were kept out of sight on bases that had been closed down
for years. None of them cared a bit about the Constitution. They would
do as they were told, without remorse or hesitation. After all, they
weren't shooting their own people. This was America. These people
needed to be brought down. They had been running things all over the
world for far to long. The President knew that was what they were
thinking. This was his chance to take full control over the nation. The
members of Congress that hadn't been killed, didn't have a place to
meet. He would make sure they never did. With numerous Presidential
Orders, and Presidential Decision Directives already in place, in case
of something like this, of course, he had the authority to rule by
decree.
It wasn't long before the members of different gangs found out that
these men weren't what they were expecting. Foolishly they had assumed
they would be like the cops they were used to, and could deal with.
They had expected these troops to follow the law, as did the American
National Guardsmen. They didn't. It was as if they made up their own
laws as they went. Soon the gang bangers were starting to drop like
flies, as the foreign troops opened fire on them on sight. They didn't
even try to capture them. They just shot them.
