DHS To Purchase Another 750 Million
DHS To Purchase Another 750 Million Rounds Of Ammo
Second massive ammunition buy this year fuels fears of civil unrest

Fears that federal authorities are preparing for mass civil unrest have increased after it was revealed that the Department of Homeland Security is planning to buy a further 750 million rounds of ammo in addition to the 450 million rounds of hollow point bullets already purchased earlier this year.
A solicitation originally issued by the DHS in April but updated on Friday calls on suppliers to provide a plethora of different types of ammunition, including 357 mag rounds that are able to penetrate walls.
The PDF file for the solicitation lists the different units of ammo required by the thousand, with the total ammo purchase exceeding 750 million rounds.
“The Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (FLETC), Glynco, Georgia anticipates awarding multiple award indefinite delivery and indefinite quantity (IDIQ) firm fixed price (FFP) contracts for commercial leaded training ammunition (CLTA) of various calibers for law enforcement officer firearms training courses at the following FLETC facilities Glynco, GA, Artesia, NM, Cheltenham, MD and Charleston, SC and to other Department of Homeland Security (DHS) agencies. The Government guarantees a minimum of 1,000 rounds per year on each resultant contract. Contracts will be for a base year and four (4) 12 month option periods,” states the synopsis.
Potential suppliers are required to respond to the solicitation before August 20.
The purchase comes in addition to an order for 450 million rounds of .40-caliber hollow point bullets which wasfulfilled by Alliant Techsystems Inc. back in March, news greeted by some as an indication that the DHS was arming itself in preparation to go to war with the American people.
Although the ammo purchases are ostensibly earmarked for training purposes, the DHS has been reticent to clarifywhy such an unusually large amount of rounds are necessary and why such powerful bullets are required merely for training drills.
This has led to speculation that the purchases are connected to confirmed preparations for civil unrest in the United States.
The DHS recently put out an order for riot gear in preparation for the upcoming DNC, RNC and presidential inauguration. The U.S. Army is also busy buying similar equipment.
The DHS also recently purchased a number of bullet-proof checkpoint booths that include ‘stop and go’ lights.
A recently leaked US Army Military Police training manual for “Civil Disturbance Operations” outlines how military assets are to be used domestically to quell riots, confiscate firearms and even kill Americans on U.S. soil during mass civil unrest.
On page 20 of the manual, rules regarding the use of “deadly force” in confronting “dissidents” are made disturbingly clear with the directive that a, “Warning shot will not be fired.”
The manual includes lists of weapons to be used against “rioters” or “demonstrators,” including “antiriot grenades.” It also advises troops to carry their guns in the “safe port arms” stance, a psychological tactic aimed at “making a show of force before rioters.” Non-lethal weapons and water cannons are also included.
The increasing likelihood of a full blown financial collapse in the coming months has also spurred federal agencies and the U.S. Army to hone their preparations for domestic disorder on a scale greater than riots witnessed in Europe over the past two years.
A 2008 report produced by the U.S. Army War College’s Strategic Institute warned that the United States may experience massive civil unrest in the wake of a series of crises which it termed “strategic shock.”
“Widespread civil violence inside the United States would force the defense establishment to reorient priorities in extremis to defend basic domestic order and human security,” stated the report, authored by [Ret.] Lt. Col. Nathan Freir, adding that the military may be needed to quell “purposeful domestic resistance”.
Last year, Department of Homeland Security chief Janet Napolitano directed ICE to prepare for a mass influx of immigrants into the United States, calling for the plan to deal with the “shelter” and “processing” of large numbers of people.

Gee, it looks lime the policies to restrict freedoms in our country are coming from the Islamic Socialist Communist Community Organizer Obama. Socialist always restrict freedoms when in power. To maintain power, they arrest people or kill them if they don’t comply with the regime.
And you all complain about the Patriot Act!

I don’t complain about the Patriot Act,but it is still just more dent in our constitutional rights. You are correct a socialist like Obama will restrict freedoms and he doing his best to undermine america and americans best interests. Obama is just a puppet and figure head for those of the NWO who really hold the reins of the power of the White House and with all the faggots and whores in congress willing to sell out america for money and the votes, I don’t see america recovering from Obama or even Mitt if he gets elected.

AVborn what excuse will you use when Romney does nothing different and does not turn back the policies Obama has set precedent for? What? They both do the banksters bidding, BOTH. Nothing will change, never does. It only gets worse!

When they start using the PATRIOT Act against Americans who are outspoken, you will complain about it, although quietly under your breath.

SS, I mean CMGINAV
You are absolutely correct. The Patriot’s Act is unconstitutional on many levels. Between the DHS and IRS hit squads, I have less fear of Al Qaeda.
If it’s a war with the American people they want, they will get it. The majority have stood by silently as the Patriot’s Act took away more of our civil liberties. They won’t stand silently if they attempt to do away with or weaken the 2nd amendment. The term defending America against enemies foreign and domestic will now mean something.
ANY use of military or federal agents against the people is a violation of posse comitatus.
Let the war begin! It was a bloody revolution that created America, and it might just be one that will keep America.
But, rather than shoot the troopers, I would look to root out the cowardly banksters and cut off their balls then their heads. While these phony troops carry the American flag into battle, the people’s revolutionary army can wave copies of the US Constitution.

SS it sounds like at least 2 bullets for every man, woman, and child in America… pop. 300,000,000 plus!

CMGINAV says...
Yes Amir this round is only 2 bullets per, but when added with their last purchase it equates to more like 4 per.
Too bad all the gung ho privates and new officer recruits will probably follow any order given. The veteran officers who are not sold out to evil are more likely to refuse the order. No matter though I guess as the UN will just send in foreign troops once resistance has begun. That’s when the party will really get started!

Gee I wonder what they are expecting to face that they need to buy all that ammo. That is way more than is needed for training.
If you wear a uniform you better do some serious soul searching about the orders you will and will not follow. If you move against the people and our constitutional rights your in for the biggest urban guerilla war in history.
