Why wouldn't people believe in FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) camps? There's one down the road from my house >_>

FAIL.

FEMA and FEMA camps aren't some super secret thing. They're camps built in order to house civilians in case of a local catastrophe. Tornado destroys entire neighborhood? The government can house the people in the FEMA camp temporarily. FEMA employees also help clean up and rebuild destroyed communities.

Now, do I think FEMA camps could be used for more sinister means? Sure. But to act like people "don't believe they built FEMA camps" is like pretending we're trying to prove the CIA is a spy agency. It's a waste of time.

Oh I believe they are there and they are real. However I am skeptical about them being "discovered" on TV. from Jesse Ventura.

Jesse Ventura is badass. He used to be a sheeple- he even admitted that- but then dove deep into what all of us on ATS have known for years. Now he is raising hell for TPTB bringing all of this to light to MAINSTREAM television. He is a pioneer and needs to be respected for that.

Not having seen a FEMA camp, I would like to know the level of security that they are putting around them.

If the camps are for the benefit of people in a natural disaster, etc, then you would think that the level of perimeter security would only need to be sufficient to stop your common/not so common thieves getting in there and ripping out copper wiring and air conditioners etc.
That is: 'Keeping people OUT'.

If they are for a more serious purpose, then the security would be based on 'Keeping people IN'.

Dont forget, during WWII, japanese-americans (and others?) were 'interned' in these camps for fear of ....

If they are looking at starting more conflicts, they could be for ***don devils advocate hat***:
a. War with China - chinese-americans.
b. War with Iran - american-iranian-muslims.
c. Curing the US of Zionist influences - 'art students' etc that can walk up to US Senators family homes. US-Israellis in government military.
d. all of the above.

yeah - waiting on the flames for 'c', but hey. there is something not right about the amount of influence in US foreign policy. no other country has newly elected senators getting flown off to a foreign country for a 'pep' talk.

I've been wondering about the true purpose of those camps for years. They are obviously built to keep people imprisoned.. But, I think it would be fairly logical to have those incase we ever have some sort of mass illegal immigration. I mean if 100,000 Mexicans rush the border and Texas doesn't kill them all we would need somewhere to put them. Our prisons are all full so that wouldn't exactly be an option. Seems like empty "camps" or prisons would be a good idea.

I'm not thrilled about Gov't camps just like the next guy. However, what are we going to do as a country when Mexico slips into civil war? If you think what's going on down there now is bad, wait until the Gov't collapses and chaotic Hell breaks loose.
What are we going to do when tens of millions of refugees flood the border? Where are we going to put them? From what I've seen in this thread, FEMA, or as it's actually been worded, ICE, is taking proactive measures to prepare for this very thing.
Which is worse...millions of refugees spreadout in Immigrations/customs camps or ten thousand vato's walking up your street looking for food?
As is usual with Alex Jones, he's taking real information and covering it with BS, then scaring the Hell out of people.
And as far as Jesse Ventura, the man used to dress like a drag queen, oil up and then roll around with other dudes dressed in underwear.

To be honest, Alex Jones is something else. I don't too much like hearing him because he doesn't tell the whole truth, I don't care about his yelling, but he over exaggerates almost.. well.. everything. I understand what he is doing by doing that, he knows what the end result could be so he puts salt on what he says to make it sound detrimental, and so the people will act. I guarantee that more than half his viewers don't research what he says. I rather get my own information. And also, Alex Jones got his Fema Camp information from Earthlasthope from Youtube. Earthlasthope (*ELH from this point on) exposed Fema Camps almost a year before Alex Jones. Alex jones got hold of ELH's videos and called them all fake, and that ELH was a psyop. Alex Jones loves to take credit for stuff, i.e. William Cooper on 9/11. ELH is no longer on Youtube because of some rape charges, who knows if it was true though? Doesn't matter.

Fema Camps are real, but for what purposes? Well they got some coffins and stuff burrowed in an excavated ditch. Why? Those coffins are definitely big enough for at least 3 human adults. But who knows. I live in GA, FEMA's main HQ is here. 3 years ago the site was open to the public, but not anymore.

It is completely unnatural and against the way things are done. When have you ever had the government doing something proactively to solve a real problem?

Normally you have to beg, petition and protest just to get their attention. Normally the government responce is too little, too late. Soooooooooo ...

When they start building containment facilities all over the country for something that only, maybe, just possibly might be a problem someday, but not now, and not sure when ....

Then you better damn well be worried, because they wouldn't have spent all that money if they didn't already have something in mind. There is a reason, and they haven't told you.

I would worry about that, if I were you. As far as I know, we don't have any of these here in Canada. I think there is a reason for that too.

What a great thread and S&F.
So now we have progressed from denying they exist to simply argueing about their purpose...
Well any advance from anyone mentioning FEMA camps is a loony must be progress.

Since this comment was posted at 11:11 on 11/11, I'm going to take it as a sign that the intended purpose of these camps is indeed nefarious, and really, I'm only half-joking.

not to diminish the op or say that fema camps don't exhist, but it's really hard to get behind the quack that is alex jones.......... he would never over sensationalize a topic would he...ummm charlie sheen anybody???

lol

What are those black containers for?

They look like ponds for fish or something
