The Denver Post, on February 15th, ran an Associated Press article entitled Homeland Security aims to buy 1.6b rounds of ammo, so far to little notice. It confirmed that the Department of Homeland Security has issued an open purchase order for 1.6 billion rounds of ammunition. As reported elsewhere, some of this purchase order is for hollow-point rounds, forbidden by international law for use in war, along with a frightening amount specialized for snipers. Also reported elsewhere, at the height of the Iraq War the Army was expending less than 6 million rounds a month. Therefore 1.6 billion rounds would be enough to sustain a hot war for 20+ years. In America.

Oh my goodness, I remember the stink when DHS ordered all those bullets and now I understand why. It wouldn't surprise me at all if this is the ammo that they will give these illegal armies they are assembling to come after us, American citizens.
Here in the midwest I'm confident that law enforcement will be on the people's side, not the federal government's.
Just like during covid.
Exactly
They do as they are ordered. Even if the orders are unlawful
Same in oklahoma,and the national guard.
Love this short essay written by Bracken in 2012. He really is a forward thinker. https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/2929658/posts
They are using it for the “alt right” baseless unfounded conspiracy theorists.
This is obamas communist purge that Cankles was supposed to carry out.
Reign of terror, red scare, Peron in Argentina. Venuzela, Cuba, Romania. 1/6 was a trial balloon to make bad case law and frame Trump supporters. American Marxism has arrived. Good luck anons.
Many of us suspected they would turn the bullets on us. I always thought "homeland security" was such a joke. So Nazi. We already had all the enforcement agencies we needed, plus some.
They also purchased chinese guillotines!
And don't forget the FEMA caskets!
I’m pretty certain this ammo is mostly used up in training exercises by now.
