Unlike most local disaster response teams who are volunteers, training periodically and only showing up when there’s a disaster, the FEMA Corps will be a paid, full time, standing army of government youth. FEMA Deputy Administrator Sarino goes on to explain, ‘The new members, who range in age from 18-24 years old, will contribute to a dedicated, trained, and reliable disaster workforce by working full-time for ten months on federal disaster response and recovery efforts.’

I think this is a dupe. SEE: This is a little disturbing, kind of like the hitler youth. http://www.cheaperthandirt.com/forums/po...forumspost This new post maybe the original article.

First of all, 18-24 yo are not youths. They are adults.
FEMA has had a Citizen's Corps for emergency preparedness for many years, long before Obama took office.
A gun rack in a pick-up is not for holding guns. Its a place for women to hold on to.

You kinda jumped the gun there didn't you peanut. If you're going to defend or apologize for obama at least wait till his name is mentioned..
All I see is people talking about a real concern.. This agency has only been around for 10 years, it's not really a big leap to compare this to the nazi youths..(In My Opinion)

This web site shows children much younger than that being indoctrinated.

And the difference is that according to the OP, they will be a paid, full time army.
These are not volunteers helping out from the goodness of their hearts of for valuable skill training.

When Romney wins in 3 weeks, I am certainly hopeful he will ensure this is the LAST class.

America will only put up with so much. Many of us train with our guns often.
I had heard about the fema internment camps and so forth. Not sure how much stock I take in them, but I am sure when all is said and done patriots will come together just like during the american revolution.

Seems you can't read thread titles.
FEMA has been around along time. Their transfer into DHS occurred about 10 yrs ago under Bush, and their mission was modified from disaster relief to security by Chertoff (Skeletor as he was known at the time), and that transfer led to the disastrous response to Katrina and New Orleans. Since that time FEMA's mission has been mainly transferred back to disaster preparedness and response, again under Bush.

I was talking about the Citizen's Corps div of fema, I've only found annual reports starting in 2002. So I'm thinking it was created with the patriot act.it's just one more thing to hate about the patriot act.
If this is the first graduating class from citizens corps it would just go to figure that obama was the one to push to get the ball rolling ,so to speak.
