FEMA concentration camps? - Updated


Is it really a conspiracy?

There's a thing about FEMA concentration camps that has been making the rounds. It cropped up on one of my liberty lists a couple of weeks ago. Some bloggers are covering it now, even though the sources date back to 2002 and 2004.

The story doesn't exactly pan out, there's a great deal of misinformation there. Just look at the locations. Sedona, AZ for example, is listed as a "possible UN base." What the UN has to do with FEMA, I've no idea.

Apparently there are 800 locations listed. But in the ones I've spot checked, there doesn't appear to be any impact mark. There were no bids put out to local contractors, there were no newspaper stories about "look what they are building in our backyard," there were no environmental impact statements files filed, and there doesn't appear to be any supporting infrastructure.

Now when we look at things that we know have secret (or even no-so-secret) government bases, we can trace the "footprint." We may not know exactly what is in Groom Lake, Nevada, but we know that it is a big-ass facility with hair-trigger security and armed guards authorized to shoot on sight if you cross the perimeter. If you try to walk into Luke Air Force Base without permission, you'll be arrested pretty fast. The humblest county lockup has to get it's groceries somewhere. There are power line, water lines, sewer lines, or some kind of on-site facilities to take care of all that. Somebody has to supply and maintain all that extra equipment, and that means long term contracts with bids.

I don't think there is any way that there could be 800 secret FEMA concentration camps without raising a huge stink, especially considering some of the history.

Renovated internment camps from WWII? Can you imagine the locals sitting still for something like that?

Some of the sites probably are operating as prisons. And yes, the US has a terrible record of illegally imprisoning people.

But I just can't buy into this conspiracy.

Hat tip disinter.
