Congress Seeks To Authorize & Legalize FEMA Camp Facilities

A new bill has been introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives called the National Emergency Centers Act or HR 645. This bill if passed into law will direct the Secretary of Homeland Security to establish national emergency centers otherwise known as FEMA camp facilities on military installations. This is an incredibly disturbing piece of legislation considering that the powers that be have already set in motion an agenda to setup a nationwide marital law apparatus through U.S. Northern Command and the Department of Homeland Security. Apparently, the fusion centers, militarized police, surveillance cameras and a domestic military command is not enough. Even though we already know that detention facilities are already in place, they now want to legalize the construction of FEMA camps on military installations using the ever popular excuse that the facilities are for the purposes of a national emergency. With the phony debt based economy getting worse and worse by the day, the possibility of civil unrest is becoming a greater threat to the establishment. One need only look at Iceland, Greece and other nations for what might happen in the United States next. With this in mind, it appears as if these so called national emergency centers will be used in a national emergency but only if the national emergency requires large groups of people to be rounded up and detained. If that isn’t the case, than why have these national emergency facilities built in military installations?

This is the best write-up I could find on HR 645 that wasn't of the fear-mongering variety.

11. All right. Obviously he did not introduce this for the reasons we are

afraid of. And these closed bases in areas that have continual disasters from hurricanes etc would make very good shelters for the homeless in these emergencies. They also could be used as prisons. But the fact is they are already there and can be used as prisons NOW. He is just suggesting there are better uses for them. What we need is to make sure that our constitution protects us from illegal imprisonment. That is the only way we will be safe from the "concentration camps" we are afraid of.

6. Military installations that are scheduled to close?

Federally owned land that can be used in case of national disasters? Better to use schools I guess.

12. Bad precedent is bad precedent no matter original intent...

This kind of legislation in the hands of a tyrant would be legal justification for American concentration camps.

Please contact your congressman and tell them that a vote to pass ANY kind of legislation that could be used to intern American citizens is a death sentence to their chance of ever again receiving a vote or campaign contribution from you and everyone you could convince to act likewise...

While you are at it, please ask them to sponsor or co-sponsor legislation to eliminate the "Department of Homeland Security" immediately. We already have a Department of Defense, Interior, State and a National Security Agency...we "need" this perverted beast of an agency as much as we need more tax cuts....
