Kansas to let nuclear plant guards "shoot to kill" Wed Mar 22, 6:42 PM ET



LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius signed a bill on Wednesday authorizing security guards to shoot to kill to protect the state's lone nuclear power plant.

"There's no doubt that nuclear facilities are a potential target for terrorists," said Sebelius in a press statement. "Kansas has one nuclear plant, Wolf Creek, and we must make sure it's properly protected. Allowing guards to use deadly force in certain circumstances increases the security of the plant, and of our state," said Sebelius.

The law is called the "Nuclear Generating Facility Security Guard Act."

So now the 'rent-a-cops' can shoot to kill at a nuke power plant in Kansas! Makes you wonder why there had to be a special law passed doesn't it?
