| SHAWNEE, Okla. Members of a state House committee have voted to increase the legal protection of citizens constitutional rights. Senate Bill 1760, by state Sen. Anthony Sykes and state Rep. T.W.

The idea is to give the President a way to alert the entire populace to a national emergency instantly, by seizing control of all TV and radio communications. In the event of a nuclear war, large-scale civil unrest, a massive cyber-attack, or a zombie apocalypse, youll hear a headache-inducing tone, followed by emergency instructions.
