It's just creepy as hell that a government agency would purchase enough shit to kill every American 3 times over.

[Hugo Chavez]

odd, the thread we had on this before is gone.

[Hugo Chavez]

Why is there not a mention of this in the media?  Nobody is going to question this?  Back in the 90's I remember an investigative report where the government set up an illegal facility in the middle of nowhere to produce weaponized anthrax.  The government's answer was "uh, so we can see how terrorists and rogue governments might do something like this"  Well it might not have been the most convincing answer but at least the news had the balls to look into it and question authorities over it.  Now today... what a fucking joke.

yea, all from the same source I posted from.  FR threads are not the same as the media actually doing their freaking job like they should be and are not.  Fucking someone on Fox, CNN, NBC should be asking questions about this.

What's fucking next, we ignore it when they requisition a nuke or some stupid shit like that? 

They have enough ammo to kill us all 3 times over, hell why would we care if they get a nuke lol...

true.  Well I hope not true.  I hope they actually have a legit reason for all this shit even though I can't fathom what that would be.

[Shockwave]

true.  Well I hope not true.  I hope they actually have a legit reason for all this shit even though I can't fathom what that would be.

Another major shooting today. That makes 3 in how many months now?

"We have multiple people who have been shot," police spokeswoman Rhonda Seaton told CNN, adding that law enforcement officers had also been shot.
The extent of the injuries was not immediately clear. According to the university's website, police had the shooting suspect in custody.

The Social Security Administration Is Buying 174,000 Rounds Of High-Powered Ammunition

The Social Security Administration Is Buying 174,000 Rounds Of High-Powered Ammunition

First the DHS needed 450 million rounds of ammunition, then the NOAA requested 46,000 rounds, now we've discovered an online request at FBO.Gov calling for 174,000 rounds of ammunition for the Social Security Administration.

The request actually calls for 174K .357 hollow points that arguably have as much stopping power as any bullet out there, and hollow point to do as much damage to soft tissue as possible on top of that.

R.K. Campbel at Gun Blast mentions his experience with .357 rounds:

I observed the effect of the .357 Magnum 125 grain JHP once over the top of my own sights. The effect was gruesome. A solid hit that produced a severe blood flow AND dramatic effect from the rear, including lung tissue thrown perhaps three feet.

The 125 grain and JHP (jacketed rounds) are exactly the ones requested by the SSA and their offices of Inspector General and Office of Investigation.

The FBO has a link that lists all locations slated to receive the batches of bullets. Offices like Greensboro, NC are getting a mere 1,000 rounds while offices like Iselin, NJ are getting 10 times that number.

Alex Jones' InfoWars is quick to point out that this acquisition jibes with a DHS operation in January where the agency swarmed a Leesburg, FL social security office and posted armed guards outside the doors.

First of all what the fuck would the SS admin need with ammo?
What are they preparing for?
Seems the Government see's something on the horizon......

I prefer the .45 ACP

People better take note of this. Why the hell would the government be stocking up on ammo for agencies like SSA, NOAA.......

Are they expecting an invasion or a run on government agencies when the economy crashes?

I found the older thread with other purchases.

DHS Classifies New Ammo Purchases Following Controversy

The Department of Homeland Security has redacted information relating to the quantity of bullets it is buying following a controversy concerning the agency’s purchase of over a billion rounds of ammo, which many fear is a sign the federal government is preparing for civil unrest in the United States

Despite the fact that documents are only supposed to be redacted if authorized by Congress or for national security reasons, a solicitation posted on the FedBizOpps website yesterday concerning ammunition purchases made by the DHS on behalf of Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE) contains numerous blacked out sections.
 
The classified portions of the document include references to the amount of 223 62 and 223 64 grain ammunition being purchased.
The solicitation explains how the contract put out by the DHS to purchase the ammunition was not subject to “full and open competition,” a process justified by what the DHS claims was an “unusual and compelling urgency” to acquire the bullets, noting that there is a shortage of bullets which is threatening a situation which could cause “substantial safety issues for the government” should law enforcement officials not be adequately armed.
 
The Department of Homeland Security’s decision to black out sections of the document, including the number of bullets being purchased, is likely to be related to a massive controversy which has snowballed over the last few weeks pertaining to concerns as to why the federal agency has purchased well over a billion rounds of bullets over the last 6 months alone.
 
The DHS’ decision back in March to purchase of 450 million rounds of .40-caliber hollow point bullets that are designed to expand upon entry and cause maximum organ damage prompted questions as to why the federal agency required such powerful bullets and in such large quantities merely for training purposes.
 
This was followed up by a more recent order for a further 750 million rounds of assorted ammunition, including bullets that can penetrate walls.
 
Given the fact that the DHS is also acquiring riot gear in preparation for civil unrest which could take place at the upcoming DNC, RNC and presidential inauguration, the purchase of ammunition in such massive numbers has stoked fears that the federal government could be preparing to use force against the American people.

Yeah they are preparing for something, but they better be ready for the back lash if they decide to open fire. There are hell of a lot more of us than there are of them
