Webmaster Comment: Welcome to the American Stasi Uber-police state where anyone could be a “potential perpetrator” of just about anything, stripped of their civil rights, and “brought to justice” (and/or FEMA camps and “re-education centers?).
Epigraph Quotes:
“All laws repugnant to the constitution are null and void.”
Madison V. Marbury Supreme Court Decision, 1803
Government is not reason; it is not eloquence; it is force! Like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master.
George Washington
“The late Prof. R. J. Rummel estimated governments murdered 262 million unarmed people in mass killings (that) he termed “democide” during the 20th century (From “Power Kills,” 1997). “This democide murdered 6 times more people than died in combat in all the foreign and internal wars of the century,” he wrote.
“This Is the Number of Innocent People Murdered by Governments. Are You Anti-State Yet?” https://reason.com/2014/05/15/be-antigovernment-and-proud/

A. Definitions of:
Disaster
Emergency
Emergency Management

(Webmaster: Of particular concern is the definition for “Prevention” which includes the following verbage which sounds very much like “pre-crime,” “thought crime,” “gangstalking-electronic torture operations,” and typical CIA “peace-keeping operations” aka “Operations Other Than War” and “Low Intensity-Conflict:”)
“Prevention”… involves applying intelligence and other information to a range of activities that may include such countermeasures as deterrence operations; heightened inspections; improved surveillance and security operations; investigations to determine the full extent and source of the threat; public health and agricultural surveillance and testing processes (for example, re: Covid); immunization, isolation, or quarantine; and as appropriate specific law enforcement operations aimed at deterring, pre-empting, interdicting, or disrupting illegal activity, and apprehending potential perpetrators and bringing them to justice.”
