H.R.645 National Emergency Centers Establishment Act

This bill deserves a double take. I watched Alex Jones video "The Obama Deception" and that is the first time I had knowledge of any plan to build detention centers in this country. Now as a side note, I am not at the point of taking everything in the Jones' video at face value, nor am I dismissing it as all conspiracy. I am doing my own research as I would hope that anybody would. One thing is for certain, there is a plan to build the detention centers he claims. It has been introduced in the House on January 22nd of this year. You can read the full text of the bill HERE.

Here is a partial cut/paste:

IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
January 22, 2009

Mr. HASTINGS of Florida introduced the following bill; which was referred to the Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure, and in addition to the Committee on Armed Services, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned
A BILL
To direct the Secretary of Homeland Security to establish national emergency centers on military installations.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

This Act may be cited as the ‘National Emergency Centers Establishment Act’.
SEC. 2. ESTABLISHMENT OF NATIONAL EMERGENCY CENTERS.

(a) In General- In accordance with the requirements of this Act, the Secretary of Homeland Security shall establish not fewer than 6 national emergency centers on military installations.
(b) Purpose of National Emergency Centers- The purpose of a national emergency center shall be to use existing infrastructure--
(1) to provide temporary housing, medical, and humanitarian assistance to individuals and families dislocated due to an emergency or major disaster;
(2) to provide centralized locations for the purposes of training and ensuring the coordination of Federal, State, and local first responders;
(3) to provide centralized locations to improve the coordination of preparedness, response, and recovery efforts of government, private, and not-for-profit entities and faith-based organizations; and
1(4) to meet other appropriate needs, as determined by the Secretary of Homeland Security.

Place particular attention to item (4). Secretary Napolitano has the authority under this bill to use these facilities as she sees fit. If you consider her views of conservatives as domestic extremist, it should give you reasons to be concerned. Already WND is reporting that an individual in Louisiana has been stopped and detained by a police officer because they had a "Don't Tread On Me" bumper sticker. Read the article HERE.
