Wait a couple hours for the parliament to go WTF and have every member regardless of party vote to rescind the martial law order.
laughs in American
But Americans have guns so it could never happen there - right? That's the reason having hundreds of school shootings is worth it? /s
A lot of those gun owners are also boot lickers.
"We need our guns to protect our civil liberties from a tyrannical government! But if we like the tyrant in charge, then tread on us harder, daddy!"
Not every country has a reasonable legislature like South Korea. Wait, are you in South Korea right now?
Na. In Europe.
More likely what would happen here is someone will challenge the order in the courts and request a stay of order until the judge rules on weather the order is legal or not.
That is what happened during COVID when we had curfews.
. The military said they will only withdraw if Yoon orders it to end. They're ignoring parliament. Hell they blocked them from going in to vote
If Yoon stays silent for several hours after this and does not end the order, he will be going rogue as a dictator and will be continuing Martial Law in an unconstitutional and illegal status. South Korea will fall to a military dictatorship and I expect elections along with all courts to be suspended indefinitely.
This was a planned coordinated effort by military figureheads and Yoon.
To go further, if this coup is successful , it would not surprise me if in a few days, all 190 who got in to vote to end the order are either jailed or executed for "anti-state" activities.
