Can someone explain to me the problem in transmitting a warning to the country in case of emergency? Can you tell me how that equates to "a total media takeover"???
According to the Press Release:
The national test will help determine the reliability of the EAS system and its effectiveness in notifying the
public of emergencies and potential danger nationwide and regionally.
Can someone explain why I should be concerned? And I mean a real explanation, not a bunch of hyperbole about worshiping governments, intrusion into my life and how our freedom is in peril?
Can someone please explain in plain English?
Well I guess when Our prez needs to see

Do they Know of something that's gonna happen that we don't?
yeah, I wouldn't be too surprised if they do.

plans to hold the first test of a "Presidential Alert," or a broadcast warning that might be issued in the event of a serious natural disaster or terrorism threat.

You are very correct.
Control of all aspects of your life is the final goal.
My greatest immediate fear is having to listen to Obama drone on in one of his endless booring speaches
