Rounding up Citizens In NY for Internment/Detention Facilities.
New York Bill A416 working its way through to being law. They can round you up and throw you in jail if you have been in proximity to a "covid 19" positive (or any other thing) and throw you in jail, without due process.
Seems they just released prisoners who murdered and raped because of "covid" so now they want to put law abiding citizens there to fill the gap and collect money.
And it won't be long before gun owners fall into this category of public health and safety.
