Post Office Latest Federal Agency to Ask for Ammunition
To put the 1.6 billion rounds in ammunition — which, note, the agency purchased in the last 10 months — in perspective, during the peak of active battle operations in Iraq, U.S. armed forces used approximately 5.5 million bullets a month. “Extrapolating the figures,” InfoWars.com reports, “the DHS has purchased enough bullets over the last 10 months to wage a full scale war for almost 30 years.”
These monstrous sums of ammunition purchases have prompted concerns that the DHS is preparing for some form of domestic unrest. In 2011, DHS chief Janet Napolitano commanded Immigration and Customs Enforcement to put strategies in place for a mass influx of immigrants into the United States, requesting a plan to deal with the “shelter” and “processing” of a vast population of people.
Although most would have you believe that the notion of American internment camps is nothing more than the conspiracy-fueled minds of the fringe right, Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia doesn’t think it’s such a far fetched idea. As reported by The New American’s Alex Newman:
Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia … made headlines nationwide this week after bluntly telling law students at the University of Hawaii that internment camps to detain Americans would eventually return. Acknowledging that the infamous Supreme Court-approved internment of Japanese-Americans in wretched camps during World War II was wrong, the conservative-leaning justice followed up by adding that “you are kidding yourself if you think the same thing will not happen again.” In “times of war,” Scalia said, citing a Latin expression attributed to Cicero, “the laws fall silent.”
And:
And DHS and the USPS are only the beginning. What of similar military-like acquisition of ammo made by other federal departments? For example:
In 2010, the Department of Education solicited for the purchase of:
twenty-seven (27) REMINGTON BRAND MODEL 870 POLICE 12/14P MOD GRWC XS4 KXCS SF. RAMAC #24587 GAUGE: 12 BARREL: 14″ – PARKERIZED CHOKE: MODIFIED SIGHTS: GHOST RING REAR WILSON COMBAT; FRONT – XS CONTOUR BEAD SIGHT STOCK: KNOXX REDUCE RECOIL ADJUSTABLE STOCK FORE-END: SPEEDFEED SPORT-SOLID – 14″ LOP are designated as the only shotguns authorized for ED based on compatibility with ED existing shotgun inventory, certified armor and combat training and protocol, maintenance, and parts.
In 2012, the Social Security Administration asked for 174,000 “.357 Duty Carry Sig 125 grain bonded JHP hollow point bullet ammunition.”
On behalf of the National Weather Service, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has joined the crowd clamoring for ammunition, asking for 46,000 rounds of hollow point bullets for themselves.
That’s a lot of bullets, especially in light of the well-documented shortage of ammunition available for purchase by civilians.
What’s behind this mass arming of federal agents who would seem to have no need to be packing such heat? No one knows for sure.
Could it be in preparation of some anticipated civilian uprising? There is some corroborating evidence for this “conspiracy theory” elsewhere, too.
A key plank of the Obama administration platform seems to be the conversion of the local police into a fifth branch of the U.S. armed forces.
The means of accomplishing this goal is the doling out of millions of dollars from the DHS to local police departments and county sheriffs’ offices around the country.
Cash-strapped local law enforcement gobbles up the federal “grants,” purchasing military-grade vehicles, weapons, ammunition, and surveillance technology that would make the National Security Agency (NSA) proud.
Then, there is the increasingly military nature of police forces across the country, as well.
