Victory: Emmett, Idaho, bans NDAA Detention, Laws of war
The citizens of Emmett,
Idaho disagree.
On Tuesday, the Emmett
City Council approved the Restoring
Constitutional Governance Resolution, thus banning the detention
provisions of the 2012 NDAA, and the application of the laws of war, which
originally made Emmett a “battlefield” in the war on terror. The resolution
also encourages the state legislature to interpose against these detention
provisions, and Idaho’s Congressional delegation to take steps to repeal them.
The 2012
National Defense Authorization Act was overwhelmingly passed by
Congress and signed into law by President Barack Obama on December 31, 2011.
This law declared the United States a battlefield in the war on terror and two
provisions, Sections 1021 & 1022, authorized the indefinite detention,
without charge or trial, of any person, including American citizens, accused by
the President of undefined "support" of terrorist activity or
commission of a ‘belligerent act" and the application of the laws of war
to U.S. soil.
Emmett’s resolution
states:
“…it is
unconstitutional, and therefore unlawful for any person to:
a. arrest or capture any
person in Emmett, or citizen of Emmett, within the United States, with the
intent of “detention under the law of war,” or
b. actually subject a
person in Emmett, to “disposition under the law of war,” or
c. subject any person to
targeted killing in Emmett, or citizen of Emmett, within the United States;…”
Jason Casella, PANDA
Idaho’s Take Back Campaign Coordinator, said:
“I want to thank the
great people of Emmett for taking the time to study and act on the issue. Once
you stop and do your own research, you find how egregious this truly is and how
this is not about ‘left’ or ‘right;’ this is about freedom vs. tyranny. We can
restore our republic and our human rights city by city and county by county.”
City by city, county by
county, and state by state, we can take back this country.
We’re up to four cities
now, is yours next? Join the movement and take back your city now:
