Do you believe in FEMA concentration camps?

I think that they are real. And if they turned out to be real, would you form a guerrilla army and take down the government? I would.

Update:

I'm still iffy about it. And hey! I do too care about the Haitians! Maybe I can't go over there right now because I am only 16 and not the God Damn president.

    I choose to apply the term "detention camps". "concentration" camp is slightly good, and that reasons human beings to brush off the certainty as fiction without investigating it for themselves. pass to KBR's internet internet site. The final time I checked, that they had a assertion announing their government settlement to strengthen the camps (around $3 hundred million if I keep in mind wisely). KBR became a subsidiary of Haliburton on the time the settlement became offered and that would desire to strengthen some eyebrows. The detention camps are no longer all new shape. For some, they are refurbishing previous centers no longer used - which includes previous prisons. What you call them would not be counted, yet they are genuine. Did you seize the information out some days approximately approximately yet another great deployment of troops on US soil for "civil concerns"? connect the dots.

    I don't put anything past our government past or present....

    Our government is not always our friend and at times it is our enemy.

    I think its excellent that you are intelligent enough to look at all sides of any subject that interests you .I would be proud to have you by my side in any fight for freedom..

    Oh and the money being sent to help in Haiti is from you and every other American,its our money.

    Detainment Camps

    Developments and Construction

    In August 2002, then Attorney General John Ashcroft called for American citizens who are deemed ‘enemy combatants’ to be detained indefinitely without charge and independently of the judiciary. [21] This legal position was upheld in the case of a US citizen detained abroad by the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in a January 2003 ruling. [22]

    In October 2006 the Military Commissions Act was passed by Congress. [23] The legislation applies to non-US citizens and permits individuals labeled as ‘enemy combatants’ to be imprisoned indefinitely and without charge. It also denies non-military tribunal judicial review of detainment (Section 7), disregards international treaties such as the Geneva Convention, and states that it is the President who defines what constitutes torture (Sections 5 & 6).

    In January of 2007 the American Civil Liberties Union released a report based on documents obtained by a Freedom of Information Act suit showing that the Pentagon had monitored at least “186 anti-military protests in the United States and collected more than 2,800 reports involving Americans in an anti-terrorist threat database.” [24]

    For some time FEMA has been renovating and constructing new detention camps throughout the country. In January 2006 Haliburton subsidiary KBR announced that it had been awarded an “indefinite delivery / indefinite quantity contract to construct detention facilities for the Department of Homeland Security worth a maximum of $385 million over 5 years. [25]

    Stated Purpose

    Little has been said about the purpose of the detainment camps but when official comment has been made it has stated that the camps are for the temporary detainment of illegal immigrants. [26]

    Quantity and Locations

    Citizens who are concerned about the purpose and potential use of the detainment camps have documented and, when possible, filmed the detainment facilities. A current estimate of the number of detainment camps is over 800 located in all regions of the United States with varying maximum capacities. [27] If one includes government buildings currently used for other purposes the number is far greater. Video of renovated but empty detainment camps has also been released. [28]

    Go home,Glenn Beck! Geez. The last time we had 'internment camps' was in WW2...if FEMA can't rescue New Orleans after a hurricane, what makes you think they can be organized enough to wrangle up everyone in America and put us all in it?Geezus,think,ppl! What would be the point of these 'concentration camps',anyway?

  • 1 decade ago

    I seriously doubt it.

    In fact It would be much more likely to believe in Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy.

    However, I shall look into the formation of a gorilla (not guerrilla) army. ;-))

    Its all a myth. Just a bunch of nonsense. Those rumors have been going around since the 1970s, probably earlier.

    You might as well had believe in Bigfoot.

    No. It would require a force of over a million to be able to do any thing and I think we would have found out about it.
