Petition against HR645 The National Emergency Center Legislation
What it really is; is a general, broadly worded open blanket pass for the Secretary of Homeland Security to use these FEMA camps as he sees fit. Point number 4 of "The Purpose of National Emergency Centers" section of the bill explains that they may be used to meet other appropriate needs as determined by the Secretary of Homeland Security. This is frightening, because according to the DHS report on extremism, HR2647 and The LLEHCP Act; there are going to be millions of Americans doing time for being "Domestic Terrorists". We as the People of the United States of America need to put an end to this type of "Big Government". Allowing the Secretary of Homeland Security to decide who is an extremist or "domestic terrorist" based on their personal, political, social or religious beliefs and their military history; and then having the ability to secret them to "National Emergency Centers", is un-American and just plain wrong.
The fact that the government wants to develop these facilities is fine, but the purpose for developing and using these facilities is what's worrisome. Alone, this legislation means little significance to America. However coupled with the series of proposed legislation ranging from the Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act, HR2647, The Cap and Trade Bill, The gun Registration Bill and the Health Care Bill; we have plenty of reason to resist this legislation. This legislation is supported by HR2647 and the Department of Homeland Security Report on Extremism published 7 April, 2009.
The DHS report on extremism and HR2647 suggest that a large portion of America's returning combat veterans, Libertarian party members, and Christian religious groups are to be considered a threat to America's national security and are "Domestic Terrorists." The legislation provided in HR 645 would enable the Department of Homeland Security to use Emergency Facilities located on military installations throughout the US for what ever purpose the Secretary of Homeland Security sees fit. This includes detainment camps, much like the one in Guantanimo Bay. This is too much unchecked power to give one person. The possibilities and abilities for the current administration to use this legislature to violate the rights of millions of Americans is immense.
We as American citizens hereby do petition against this legislation HR645 because it is unconstitutional. The legislation is supported by a Democrat/ Socialist,partisan party and is not in the spirit of the American Constitution, Bill of Rights or the American way of life. This bill was introduced by former impeached Judge Alcee Hastings.In 1989, Judge Hastings was impeached by the US House of Representatives for bribery and perjury. The Democratic-controlled Senate convicted Hastings of accepting a $150,000 bribe in 1981 in exchange for a lenient sentence and of perjury in his testimony about the case. Hastings said the charges against him smacked of racism.
Even Rep. John Conyers, who is also black, said he found no trace of racism during the investigation. He urged his colleagues to remove Hastings from the bench. He said, [Hastings] is unfit to serve. This bill is as immoral as the man who introduced it. We the American people will not tolerate such legislation proposed in HR645.
