I'm sure you've read about the multiple agencies of the federal government have ordered and are stockpiling 750 million rounds of ammunition, especially hollow point bullets. Why? Well, the official explanation does nothing but raise more questions.
Our government states
that the hollow point bullets it has procured are "standard issue" and
that they are used to train security agents used by each of the various
federal agencies.
However, according to retired Maj. Gen. Jerry Curry, a decorated Army
war veteran, the Feds' explanation about the bullets fails to pass the
smell test.
Yeah, right. As every gun owner knows if they are serious about developing
and maintaining their shooting skills, the type of bullets used for
practice at the firing range are normally different from the ammunition
one would use when getting the firearm set to be used in the event of a
home invasion or other situations in which one's life is in mortal
danger.
Firing range bullets are much less expensive and are not designed for
the day to day use of the gun for maximum self protection. One uses the
more expensive variety, such as hollow point bullets, for real-life
danger.
Something is wrong. Most citizens are likely unaware that such ammo is not used for
practice and will accept the government's explanation at face value.
This is in all likelihood what the Feds are counting on.
it became clear that the our government has not been honest with the public concerning the current mass stockpiling of ammunition.
Hollow point bullets are so lethal that the Geneva Convention does not allow their use on the battle field in time of war. Hollow point bullets don’t just stop or hurt people, they penetrate the body, spread out, fragment and cause maximum damage to the body’s organs. Death often follows.
During the Iraq War the U.S. military
used 70 million rounds of ammunition per year. Compare that with the 750
million rounds of hollow point bullets that the Department of Homeland
Security (DHS) ordered in March. And then it further ordered another 750
million rounds of various types of ammunition, some of which can
penetrate walls.
This is enough ammunition to empty five rounds into the body of every living American citizen. Is this something we and the Congress should be concerned about? What’s the plan that requires so many dead Americans, even during times of civil unrest? Has Congress and the Administration vetted the plan in public.
I fear that Congress won’t take these ammunition purchases seriously until they are all led from Capitol Hill in handcuffs. Why buy all this ammunition unless you plan to use it. Unknown to Congress, Does DHS plan to declare war on some country? Shouldn’t Congress hold hearings on why the Administration is stockpiling this ammunition all across the nation? How will it be used; what are the Administration’s plans?
The other factor that is raising significant concerns about the ammo
purchases is that the U.S. military and various law enforcement agencies
at both the federal and local levels have enough fire power to
adequately respond to any emergency or threat. But DHS now has enough
ammo on its own to kill every single American citizen plus potential
invaders such as Syrians, Iranians, or Mexicans.
You have to ask yourself: Why? And for what purpose?
