WASHINGTON (PNN) - December 13, 2016 - Six years ago, NBC Nightly News boldly predicted that all Amerikans would be fitted with RFID microchips by the year 2017. Though at the time NBC’s prediction seemed far-fetched, the House recently passed a bill that would bring a micro-chipped populace closer to reality before year’s end. Last Thursday, the House passed HR 4919, also known as Kevin and Avonte’s Law, which would allow the Fascist Police States of Amerika attorney general to award grants to terrorist pig thug cops for the creation and operation of “locative tracking technology programs”. Though the program’s mission is to find “individuals with forms of dementia or children with developmental disabilities who have wandered from safe environments,” it provides no restriction on the tracking program’s inclusion of other individuals. The bill would also require the attorney general to work with the secretary of health and human services and unnamed health organizations to establish the “best practices” for the use of tracking devices. Those in support of the legislation maintain that such programs could prevent tragedies where those with mental or cognitive disabilities wandered into dangerous circumstances. Yet others have called these good intentions a “Trojan horse” for the expansion of a North Amerikan police state, as the bill’s language could be very broadly interpreted.
“While this initiative may have noble intentions, ‘small and temporary’ programs in the name of safety and security often evolve into permanent and enlarged bureaucracies that infringe on the Amerikan people’s freedoms. That is exactly what we have here. A safety problem exists for people with Alzheimer’s, autism, and other mental health issues, so the fix, we are told, is to have the (Amerikan Gestapo) Department of (In)Justice (division) start a tracking program so we can use some device or method to track these individuals 24/7,” Representative Louie Gohmert (Tex.) said in a floor speech opposing the bill.
Gohmert’s assessment is spot-on. Giving local terrorist pig thug cops the authority to decide who is micro-chipped and who is not based on their mental soundness is a recipe for disaster. Though the bill specifically mentions those with Alzheimer and autism, how long before these tracking programs are extended to those with ADHD and Bipolar disorder among other officially recognized disorders? Even the dislike of authority is considered a mental disorder known as “Oppositional Defiant Disorder,” which could also warrant microchipping in the future. If these programs expand unchecked, how long will it be before all Amerikans are told that mass microchipping is necessary so that terrorist pig thug cops and the government can better “protect” them? Many Amerikans have been content to trade their liberties for increased security in the post-9/11 world, particularly when the State uses these talking points. Yet as Benjamin Franklin once said, “those who surrender freedom for security will not have, nor do they deserve, either one.”
