What's crazy is that they check it so often that if it were used in a real emergency, I'd think it was just another test.
It cuts both ways, when I was in Broadmore I wondered how they would know if it was a real nutter alert since they tested the alarm so often and when the alarm went off when I was in AWRE nobody knew what to do because it had never happened before.
But in truth you could see why each establishment worked it like that, the public would be reassured knowing the high security nuthouse had good working security measures, whereas a warning alarm from a nuclear bomb factory would scare the crap out of the whole region.

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.

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.

Well to be fair those Fema Camps do exist, Whilst I dont think they intend to throw half the American population in to them, something 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 I honesly dont have the energy to trawl though it to separate fact from conspiricy.
With your 9/11 truther conspiracies I am surprised you can find the time to even consider the FEMA deathcamp conspiracies.

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
As pointed out already this ability to control transmitions has been in effet for nearly 100 years.

Better that than decades spent in your parents basement. I rather not live in a police state. I should be able to travel any where in the United States without being harrassed by the government. I can't wait for the government to start playing around with the internet I bet that will get your undivided attention.

You are not very good at comebacks are you Yubba
But its nice that you set the paramaters for what you consider as existance. Inebriation until you lose your job or living in your parents basement. Such choices you set before us
But hey thanks for the scary story about transport people in transport, its not quite as good as the secret telescope at the south pole but it certainly demonstrates something very well

Those FEMA-camps do exist, but they are NOT some kind of deathcamp or concentration camps.

After the 2005 hurrican Katrina, where many where homeless, they start to build those camps(that's what I have learned) to prevent this in the future.

FEMA predict that the future hurrican, Tornadoes a.s.o will be more intense.

So there you have it, it's nothing more to it.

Abou this broadcasting test. When would it be the best time to send a test?

All that matters is, that I thought it was pretty good and at the end of the day well you can figure that out. Well what can I say I'm a survior , well I never lost a job over partying and I wouldn't trade one day of, for a life time you spent in the basement, I guess you don't like being a free person as much as I do, I guess you won't be happy till the TSA or some other government agency has a check point right outside the door of your parents basement. So you like the elites south pole scope you should you paid for it.

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.

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'....
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.

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.
