Rep. Alcee L. Hastings, D-Fla., has introduced to the House of Representatives a new bill, H.R. 645, calling for the secretary of homeland security to establish no fewer than six national emergency centers for corralling civilians on military installations.
The proposed bill, which has received little mainstream media attention, appears designed to create the type of detention center that those concerned about use of the military in domestic affairs fear could be used as concentration camps for political dissidents, such as occurred in Nazi Germany.
Heed the warning of a former Hitler Youth who sees America on the same path as pre-Nazi Germany in "Defeating the Totalitarian Lie" from WND Books!
The bill also appears to expand the president's emergency power, much as the executive order signed by President Bush on May 9, 2007, that as WND reported gave the president the authority to declare an emergency and take over the direction of all federal, state, local, territorial and tribal governments without even consulting Congress.
As WND also reported, DHS has awarded a $385 million contract to Houston-based KBR, Halliburton's former engineering and construction subsidiary, to build temporary detention centers on an "as-needed" basis in national emergency situations.

Alcee Hastings. SPIT
>> ok I know its WND but does anyone doubt this is the plan.
I seriously doubt Alcee Hastings could build enough big camps to hold the subversive group he wants to put there (namely, all white people). But, hey, you gotta admire his ambition.
If true, it’d be a fatal folly for someone to try to get some of the folks I know into those camps. I’d be amused at the results of the attempt though.

OMG! Isn’t this what the left kept saying Bush was going to do? yet he didn’t do it, but the liberals have no problem with this?
This is what is scary.
I just read the same article, and decided to write a note to my Representative to see if he could find out if the bill reads the way WND says it does. If it does read and imply what WND says it does, the bill certainly sends a chill down my back.
So, prisons on foreign soil with foreigners who are terrorists is bad, but jailing citizens on US soil is ok? Scary logic.
“liberals have no problem with this?”
not now, not with Dear Leader.
Can’t think of a better way to start CW2 ... rounding up civilians
Really? I've been reading about these camps for about 15 years. He doesn't have to have any ambition. They camps are already built. He/she/it is just stepping into something already in place. They used to call this "tin foil hat" stuff. Now in 2009 all this is coming to light.
This is truly frightening stuff...
Well no offense but, with all the base closings, it is a great idea to be able to set up some type of emergency response centers, and there are probably homes already sitting. The authors word ‘corralled’ maybe a bit misleading.
Yep, bring it on libtards.
Son of a gun!!!
So many kook websites have been talking this nonsense for years...
Maybe they were right...

>> They camps are already built.
Seriously? Big enough for all white people? Where are they? And who will run them? Illegals I guess?
>> They used to call this “tin foil hat” stuff.
They still do. ;-)
Don’t get me wrong, I’m sure Alcee Hastings wants to build them. They won’t get traction. Anyway, my shotgun and I say there is a zero probability I’ll be going to one.
After 8 years of watching folks on “our side” cheer this sort of stuff on, I am very pleased to see many Right/Republicans showing signs of regaining their sanity.
Let us not forget to thank the neocons for their role in empowering the domestic tyrants of tomorrow.
