On July 15th the House Homeland Security Committee unanimously approved highly controversial legistlation that gives FEMA and DHS far more power to roundup Americans they deem as potentially violent extremists.
It creates a new Office for Countering Violent Extremism, or CVE, within DHS under the pretense of preventing Americans from becoming radicalized by extremist groups.
“In the face of mounting threats, our government is doing far too little to counter violent extremism here in the United States,” stated Chairman Michael McCaul (R-Texas), the bill’s main sponsor. “Whether it is the long reach of international terrorists into our communities or the homegrown hate spread by domestic extremist groups, we are ill-equipped to prevent Americans from being recruited by dangerous fanatics.”

Read the report. U might know it the sponsor was a texas republican.
This concerns me due to the display of power the politicians have used in the past. Lock up potential terrorist, but as we all know then they twist it and can find a reason to lock up regular folks that just voice their opinion. Why were they let in our country to begin with? Had we been more selective in opening the borders, all of this would be unnecessary.

iv) Ensuring all activities related to countering violent extremism fully respect the privacy, civil rights, and civil liberties of all Americans.
Obama is willing to close Gitmo, but open these dention camps. Yeah what is so “F” wrong with these communists. Let terrorist go free. Illegally impose citizens into these camps.
Are you people really that gullible? The site name should be fiction.org.
Hey, maybe it might be a good idea to actually READ the bill before believing wingnut websites.
