FEMA concentration camps - RationalWiki

Though exact claims about the purpose and nature of the camps vary from one crank to another, a common theme is that they will be used to detain dissenting US citizens after the consolidation of the North American Union in preparation for the establishment of a one-world government. The camps allegedly come complete with boxcars for moving people around and plastic coffins for burying them. (Why not just burn the corpses Nazi-style?)
FEMA, naturally, is the shadow government which will run the show after the puppet government dissolves through a series of executive orders issued by the President. The idea that FEMA could pull off such a masterstroke is surprisingly widespread, considering their massive display of incompetence during Hurricane Katrina.
There are several videos purporting to show footage of the camps, as well as shots of ominous-looking fences and webpages listing locations of over 800 camps, allegedly all fully guarded and staffed full-time despite being completely empty.[1][2] In addition to the implausibility of such a massive conspiracy being kept totally silent,[3] the evidence is damaged by the fact that the videos and pictures actually depict everything from National Guard training centers to Amtrak repair stations to North Korean labor camps.[4]
The FEMA camp conspiracy theory has been alluded to by Republican leadership candidate Michele Bachmann, though she did not say FEMA.[5] Glenn Beck, who to his credit later backpedaled and hosted a debunking segment featuring a government shill guest from Popular Mechanics, promoted the theory as well.[6] Still, the theory remains popular among the survivalist community and the militia movement, and there's no shortage of adherents on the Internet.
So far the only flaw in this otherwise brilliantly executed conspiracy was the mistake of publicly advertising jobs to work at the camps.[7] It's always the small details the conspirators slip up on.
The idea that the US government is planning to intern masses of people has some history: In the 1980s, opponents of Ronald Reagan's Central America policy on the left thought that FEMA was planning a mass roundup of them just before the imminent U.S. invasion of "Nee-ka-hah-gua." Barely skipping a beat, it became a theory on the right-wing black helicopter/militia circuit in the '90s, among Alex Jones followers and truthers in the 2000s, and today by the more insane opponents of the Obama administration.

rock, explain why it's a replication of a prison with a dam playground in it. explain why we can't ask questions about them.

key word "only" flaw in the 'conspiracy'. nobody occupies these camps (yet) that i know of. people built them because they got a fat check from the government.

and glenn beck is a complete moron.

since the patriot act, you could end up in one of these camps and nobody would know. it's just fuckin sad.

"disease/pandemic outbreaks"...quarantine man, quarantine

govt has to spend its money somehow or they lose it. you know how i used to sell high capacity/custom shredders to the govt a couple of years ago? Had a high clearance position. The govt keeps buying and buying them...they stay shrinkwrapped under the whitehouse in ROWS...been there for years, untouched...and they keep buying. FEMA needed to spend its budget so they build internment/pandemic camps due to the age we live in of evolving disease/threats on a molecular level.

i'll field this

you know why theres no "due process?" because "due process" takes months...and if you have 2 million people infected with a communicable disease for which there is no cure (say bird flu or something of the like) the time it would take to process those people thru the system? it would cause it to spread in an unstoppable fashion.

when was the last time that happened? the black plague? how many millions/billions are dumped into a project that may not ever be used. sorry, can't buy that story.

i'd rather take that money and use it towards the 13+trillion dollar deficit.

SARS and MERS

A detailed of how the disease called spread through four Saudi Arabian hospitals this spring reveals disturbing similarities to the pandemic that terrified the world a decade ago.
"I think this has the great potential of becoming the next SARS," , one of the analysts, tells Shots. Perl, a pathologist and epidemiologist at Johns Hopkins, has some standing on that score.
She found herself at the epicenter of the largest SARS outbreak 10 years ago when she went to Toronto to help overwhelmed hospital personnel there cope with a second wave of SARS.
MERS emerged a year ago in Saudi Arabia, although the world didn't find out about it until September, when researchers said it was caused by a previously unknown virus in the same same coronavirus family as SARS.
SARS, short for Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome, first surfaced in China in late 2002. But the world found out only after it caused an explosive epidemic that spread from a Hong Kong hotel to more than 8,400 patients in 31 countries. Since then, SARS has gone underground.
So far, the outward similarities with MERS seem slight. Unlike the explosive spread of SARS (once it escaped from mainland China to the airline hub of Hong Kong), MERS has clocked confirmed cases of infection in nine countries.
But MERS appears to be more deadly than SARS. Sixty percent of people known to be infected with the MERS virus have died, compared to the 8 percent toll of SARS. "The mortality difference is striking if not dramatic," Perls says.
The new analysis, published online by the New England Journal of Medicine, encompasses the first 23 cases of MERS that occurred in easternSaudi Arabia from April 1 to May 23. It's not clear whether the outbreak is continuing, although that seems likely.
Perl says Saudi health officials, like those in Toronto, have been struggling to contain the outbreak. That may help explain why there's been no real analysis of what's happened, beyond a daily case count.
"They had all hands on deck and didn't have the resources to sit down and think," the Hopkins researcher says. "That's why we were invited in. Our role was to put the story together."
The main lesson is how easily MERS can spread within hospitals — even between patients located two or three rooms away. The virus can also be readily transferred, in the bodies of its victims, from one hospital to another.
Those characteristics are chillingly reminiscent of SARS. Helen Branswell of The Canadian Press wire service that SARS turned out to be mainly a hospital epidemic.
MERS also affects patients in much the same way as SARS. "It looks for all the world like SARS," Perl says. "Fever, cough, pneumonia, incubation period."
Here's another similarity: Some people infected with MERS seem especially likely to spread the virus to others. In the case of SARS, such victims were called , although Perl and other infectious disease specialists don't much like that stigmatizing term.
One of the cases in the Saudi hospital outbreak, a patient receiving kidney dialysis, transmitted the MERS virus to seven people — fellow dialysis patients and others. Others transmitted the virus to one, two or three others; most MERS-infected people didn't pass the virus on.
The team wasn't able to work out how the MERS virus is spread — whether through the air, in droplets spewed out in coughs, or through direct contact with patients, bodily fluids or surfaces. That's an important question, because the answer would help focus infection-control efforts.
The researchers say the incubation period — the time from exposure to first symptoms — is typically a little over five days, though it can be as long as 15 days. That's important, because it affects how long an infected person might be infectious to others. The MERS virus might be capable of movng from one person to another earlier in the course of the illness than SARS, they say, multiplying the opportunities for spread before the disease is recognized.
One urgent need, Perl says, is for quick, accurate diagnostic tests. The current test is good, but it takes about three days to get results.
"When you're trying to identify people who are at risk, three days is a lot of time for people who are potentially exposed," she says. "You try to keep them isolated, but in health care nothing is perfect."
It all adds up to a troubling picture, especially for hospitals without the resources or expertise to do prompt and rigorous infection control — implementing measures including proper hand hygiene, mask-wearing, isolation of suspected patients and stepped-up environmental decontamination.
Ultimately, the key will be to identify where the MERS virus is coming from in the environment. "Without the ability to prevent community infection," the analysis concludes with academic understatement, "prevention of health care transmission will remain a challenge."

Explain why, when there is a huge on going controversy about the NSA spying on its own citizens, you've chosen to chase windmills. Why don't you work against the government abuses that have been verified first and save the domestic prison camps until you've crossed all the other ones off your list.
