This system has always been effective in the past, since the most likely operational need for an EAS broadcast would be at the local level.
But it has never even been checked at a national level.

new system seizes complete control of the nations airwaves, at the discretion of a single federal agency under the Executive Branch.
And?

There is nothing locals can do to stop it other than turn off their transmitters, which would result in huge fines and probable loss of license.

You honestly cannot see the danger here?
I can see the danger if you believe the government is evil and is going to secretly march you all off to the Nazi dentists in the FEMA camps, but if that were the case you wouldn't be worrying about some fines and a loss of licence.

Ho-hum. The government owns/regulates the spectrum. It has since The Radio Act of 1927. (See also, The Communications Act of 1934; The Telecommunications Act of 1996.) It can pretty much do as it pleases, so long as it doesn't target protected speech - like jamming Glenn Beck or Al Sharpton.

Besides, it's not like their interfering with TV football games. Now THAT would start a revolution.

Proof that some form of intelligent life may exist in government. And as far as I'm concerned they can block Beck and Sharpton and replace them with reruns of Tele-Tubbies. People would probably get more out of that.

Well to be fair those Fema Camps do exist, their is no denying that. Whilst I dont think they intend to throw half the American population in to them for fun, some kind of preparation is going on there for sure, to me - it does look like the U.S is gearing up to become a police state.

There is plenty of info on the FEMA camps around the net, but there purpose is largly unknown, I honesly dont have the energy to trawl though the info to separate the fact from the conspiricy theories.

It may well be part of the contingency plans to deal with the civil unrest that will likey follow a major economic collapse or a similar crisis, which is begining to look like a matter of 'when' rather than 'if'.... :cry:
Hope for the best and plan for the worst I suppose.

I do have an unsettling feeling that something big and nasty is coming our way, by 'our' i mean that if it effects America, it will likely effect everywhere else too.

With your 9/11 truther conspiracies I am surprised you can find the time to even consider the FEMA deathcamp conspiracies.

Nope, that's not it. You don't see it.

The power to shut down all radio and TV broadcasts in the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave is in the hands of ONE man. The head of the executive branch of the US government. Currently Barrak Hussein Obama.

WAY too much power to put in ANY one man's hands.

Oh no one person can get a federal agency to shut down transmissions and the people, well all they can do to stop it is...."There is nothing locals can do to stop it other than turn off their transmitters".....do it for him:rotfl2:
As pointed out already this ability to control transmitions has been in effet for nearly 100 years.

Patently false.

That is exactly what is happening on Nov. 3rd. A system is now in place and being tested on Nov. 3rd to take control of all radio and TV broadcasts. Not just stop them or jam them. Take direct control by controlling the satellite uplinks by which all modern radio and television stations receive their content.

No such system has ever existed in the US.

Rockstar 10-26-11 11:38 AM

Wait a minute this same one man has the keys to this countries nuclear arsenal, no body complains. But fear suddenly runs rampant when 'they' threaten to deprive the people of their afternoon soaps.

Monitoring the airwaves was the reason things like FCC was established in the first place. They are simply keeping up with the technology available.

Neither were personal global communication systems like satellite phones and internet to rally people to subversive causes. Do so and Uncle will track you down and if they can't, they now have the means to shut it down.

Fine by me.
