WHO Wants to Cross the Rubicon


Mason Dixon Tactical published a prescient post on March 13, 2020, under the title "A Chilling Scenario and Some Valid Questions." In it, he presented the following scenario:
       ... Your neighborhood is quarantined and has been for two weeks. Some guys in Hazmat suits show up and start down your street in a couple humvees along with what appears to be an escort of 4 armed soldiers in MOPP4 protective gear.

         They start at your neighbor’s house across the street and have everyone in that household take, what appears to be, some type of mouth swab test. A young adult male (your neighbor’s adult Son) apparently tests positive and a Hazmat suit tells two soldiers to take him to the waiting military bus. The Dad asks where they are taking his Son and “Hazmat” says, “To the Medical Camp for observation.” but will give no more information when asked again.

       The boy struggles and a soldier buttstrokes him with a rifle, knocking him out. The Dad pulls out a pistol and starts by shooting the soldier who grabbed his boy, then he pops the less than helpful, “Hazmat”. Another soldier drops Dad with two shots to the chest. Knowing they are coming to your house once they get through the other three in the cul de sac, and your Wife has been under the weather for two days, what do you do?
I have to admit that when I first considered the scenario, I thought it was a little over the top. I was wrong. Just the other day, it was reported:
       Last week, Dr. Michael Ryan, a leader at the World Health Organization, announced that in response to the spread of this virus, authorities may have to enter people’s homes and remove family members, presumably by force.

      Dr. Michael Ryan, executive director of the WHO Health Emergencies Programme:  "In most parts of the world, due to lockdown, most of the transmission that’s actually happening in many countries now is happening in the household at a family level. In some senses, the transmission has been taken off the streets and pushed back into family units. Now, we need to go and look in families to find those people who may be sick and remove them and isolate."
If Dr. Ryan's proposal were implemented, then the result would be force. Perhaps not armed groups going from door to door (although as the video below on Rhode Island relates, some places are closer than others to that eventual fate), but if someone refused to cooperate, there would be big men with guns show up to enforce the order.
