If this happens in California then they better haul my ass off to jail!
I wouldn't be too surprised if they do try to pull it off here as well.

It's classic diversionary tactics.
This is NOT a conspiracy, this IS reality now.
People have been talking of this kind of scenario for a long time, and the modus operandi so far, hasn't missed a step with the consensus.
Don't the students get involved with exposing and protesting shady government practices anymore? They have the right to protest in Mass i assume? Or has that been taken away too?

Maybe (just maybe) this is to limit an otherwise rampant pandemic?
If you're walking around with swine flu (or anything else for that matter), you're not just hurting yourself.
You're potentially hurting anyone you come in contact with.
And that, believe it or not, SHOULD be illegal.
Sure, it could also be a perfectly orchestrated government conspiracy, in which the sheer amount of people who would have to know and yet say nothing would require nothing less.
Or, it could simply be a bill which could potentially save millions of lives.
Simply stating that it ABSOLUTELY IS the first, without evidence of such, is (in my opinion at least) narrow minded.
SECTION 1. Chapter 17 of the General Laws is 1 hereby amended by striking out 2 section 2A, as appearing in the 2006 Official Edition, and inserting in place thereof the 3 following section:
Section 2A. (a) Upon declaration by the governor that an emergency exists which is detrimental 5 to the public health or upon declaration of a state of emergency under chapter 639 of the acts of 6 1950, as amended, the commissioner may, during such period of emergency, take such action 7 and incur such liabilities as he or she may consider necessary to assure the maintenance of 8 public health and the prevention of disease. The commissioner may establish procedures to be 9 followed during such emergency to ensure the continuation of essential public health services 10 and the enforcement of the same.
The Governor of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts is authorized under state lawchapter 639 of the Acts of 1950, as amended, to declare a Gubernatorial State of Emergency upon the occurrence of a natural or man-made disaster (see attached sample Executive Orders). Thise law gives the Governor broad authorities to implement emergency measures to ensure the safety and health of the residents of the Commonwealth, take appropriate steps to mobilize state assets and conduct other emergency business for the protection of the Commonwealth.
