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.
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.

What are you defending then?
“This is for the coming major terrorist attack for one thing, and then secondly, it will also serve as a place where people could have gone to, when the New Orleans disaster happened. But, it wasn’t there at that time. Hopefully these centers will be in place and fully ready in short order.”
Oh BS!
First of all, the “New Orleans disaster” was caused by the LOCAL GOVERNMENT not following through with their published evacuation plan followed by their refusal to allow outside organizations in to provide relief services.
Second, those who were evacuated were moved to military bases as well as other facilities across the nation.
It looks to me that when they come knocking on the door you might as well lock and load. You have nothing to lose.
You asked — “What are you defending then?”
I’m not so sure I’m defending one thing or another, except just saying that certain ideas about setting up “camps” for “re-education” is ridiculous. I’m saying that these emergency camps were needed a long time ago, to be used for a lot of refugees that we will have when the next major terrorist attack happens that wipes out a metro area or two.
And, in the meantime, these emergency facilities can also be used in the case where we did have to evacuate an area, such as New Orleans. A large number of those people are still displaced (but many have simply relocated permanently).
So, I’m saying it’s *long overdue* for this kind of facility — to house people who are refugees in their own country because of a disaster, or the *certainty* of the coming terrorist attack on this country...
The disaster is coming; we just better be ready for it...
So what ever will they call these “camps”
Go to you tube, search feme camps and fema coffins, you will see hundreds of them.
It’s still needed and it’s long-overdue. It should have been done and a number of them completed *during* the Bush Administration. That’s a failure on Bush’s Administration that it wasn’t done (at least one or two of them, if not more...).
We are going to have a huge number of *refugees* in the coming major terrorist attack and probably one or two or three major metro areas destroyed. We better be prepared. The faster they can build them, the better...
This provision will allow BO and the socialists in Congress to close military bases consequently removing them from the military authority and thereby weakening the military,ending free speech and creating a stronger centralized form of government.
Yep, then he installs his own civilian police force, as large, as well armed and as well funded as the current military. When and if he starts that, that is the beginning of the SHTF! That will be the breaking point and it will be time to get the hell out of here or prepare to try to stand up to them.
No problem, you just posted a “ :-) “ to me. Looks like we are cool. ;)
Where are they? I would not want to be near one.
They are all over, even in Alaska. GO to you tube, tons of videos on them from people that live in towns where the camps are.
Thanks, stockpirate.

On the New Orleans “disaster”... the disaster was the hurricane itself, which then caused the necessity of removing large numbers of people from the area. Now, whether the removal had problems or not — is not — the issue for the fact that people *had to go*.
It’s *that component* (that they had to go) that is the problem. And so, the fact that an emergency center could be used would have taken a lot of the stress off what I saw in Houston, Dallas and San Antonio (and probably a lot of other areas). They could have been given a destination of one of the emergency refugee camps and “holed up” there until they could be returned to New Orleans or relocated permanently in another part of the country.
That’s how a center like that could have been very helpful in the situation of New Orleans... And, once again, the *disaster* was the hurricane, by itself, and the requirement to move a lot of people to other “living quarters”...
And the fact that some were moved to some military facilities does not — at all — mean that there is *adequate capacity* for a huge disaster such as New Orleans (in terms of that hurricane, and others to come in the future) along with the certain major terrorist attack that is coming upon this nation...
That’s why we need those facilities *as fast as possible*...
It says so right here in my Axelturf book
Star Traveler
Nope! It's Wing Nut Daily and it's bringing out all the crazies!
You said — “mentally deranged..yes, i can agree that you are. what can we do to help?”
Common sense is perceived as “mental derangement” by those who are trapped in that very same syndrome... LOL...
[ and the rest of the world is a “conspiracy” and also is “crazy”... :-) ... ]
Now, does that also sound like the Obama Derangement Syndrome... LOL... I thought so... Isn’t it interesting how “birds of a feather flock together...”
You said —You said —You said —You said —You said —You said —You said —You said —You said —You said —You said —You said —
sheesh, google html
Instead of that you said crap do this < then i then> then after the you said do this < then/ then i then>
sorry my style and there is not a “style sheet” for posting requirement on Free Republic. You might as well go around your neighborhood telling people how to cut their hair and what clothes to wear, too... :-)
Do you go around calling everyone mentally deranged?
Yes she or he does. Also trolls the birth certificate threads. A major pal of obama and pals.
When I saw Stare Traveler I knew you wouldn’t be far behind. Now where are the other 3?
