Yeah, let's get this straight: Democrats want to free terrorists from GITMO. But they want to create six GITMOs to imprison American conservatives. Seems totally reasonable.

I doubt they’re for dissidents. More likely to be used in the event of floods, hurricanes etc.

Still is can be used as a club against the democrats.

Swing at will.

NEWS FLASH!!!! - This effort began under the Bush administration.

If you read the article closely, you will see that millions have ALREADY been spent converting and constructing centers for training and emergency response....with the capability of detaining individuals during times of national emergency defined by the president w/o congressional oversight.

Hint hint.....civil unrest due to economic hardtimes could very well be construed as a national emergency.

The government in Iceland was brought down by massive “non-violent protest” recently. Just a thought and my humble lil ol opinion.

The article does not say a thing about the government having the power to compel people to go to those. It authorizes the government to create places for disaster displaced people. Unless it is true that the bill (which probably has little support anyway) allows the government to force people to these places it seems to me the author of the piece is a black helicopter chicken little.

The WND original article also says nothing about the government being able to force people to these either. Barring that critical piece of information its impossible to come to their paranoid comparison linking this to Nazi Germany and even then it takes a gigantic leap.

"Work will make you Free"I don't remember the German for it but it was over the gates at the camps in the Reich.

Where did you read that? It isn't in the bill and you have to use a lot of imagination to put it there.

Aside from this being posted no less than a dozen time already this week, these stories are short on fact and long on speculation. Yours especially.

It may be a little premature and paranoid to call them concentration camps. But you can decide for yourself.

Its something to keep in mind that if it was to be these concentration or detention centers there would be a massive shutdown of any facts concerning who is there, the spin would be “terrorists, dangerous dissidents” but in truth could be your next door neighbors family.

We should be prepared to implement ways and means to storm these these camps of holding Americans against their free will regardless of the consequences that in fact may very well harbor real criminals, but then again if we need many many “Dirty Dozens” then it shall be done, and I for one would not hesitate to consider existing incarceration areas if push came to shove.

Imagine the squeals of concern from the libtards if they were told there was a possibility extremist groups would break into prisons all across America to recruit prisoners to re-take back and re-instate a legal government?

Oh the horrors if it was ever imagined that pardons could be issued if former prisoners agree to take up arms that ordinary citizens could not and form a well maintained militia as stated in our Constitution.

Ohh the huge-manatee!

Just thinking about a scenario is interesting.

Well let’s look at the historical record of the 20th century:

It was a ‘Rat President (FDR) that rounded up Japanese and put them into internment camps.

How many Republican Presidents have acted likewise?

“Anybody toting guns and stripping moose don’t care too much about what they do with Jews and blacks..."

I fail to see the correlation. And what's with the lousy grammar?

“Anybody toting guns and stripping moose don’t care too much about what they do with Jews and blacks. So, you just think this through.”

Holy Cow! I can’t believe this! This guy equates Jews and Blacks to Moose? HE is the one with the problem. This guy also needs to review a 5th grade grammar text.

The "concentration camp" crticism is uncontrolled hyperbole, although what is revealed of this proposal has real problems.

I see it as a domestic "West Bank." guaranteed to grow 500,000 disaster victims into 4 million dispossesed "victims" in a few generations. Anyone else remember how Katrina victims refused to leave the "refugee" camps (and hotel rooms) when the crisis was long over?

Another potential HUGE and PERMANENT welfare program. Great time to be "investing" in growing our domestic human pet population.
