Skeet,
I know you are delusional because the military used 1.7 billion rounds in 10 years of war not just two wars, but several "brush wars" plus Afganastan and Iraq.

There are actually 200,000 or so that now work for DHS, including the Secret Service, Border Patrol and the Coast Guard, but FEMA is the gorilla in the closet, you need to read their capability in an "emergency." They are the ones no one paid attention to, and in the guise of powers needed due to a natural disaster, they have very wide and very invasive powers by just declaring an emergency. If those powers are used against the people rather than to help the people, there is really no checking them. I have watched these folks in action after several emergencies were declared and it is not hard at all to see them or them being directed to abuse.

Yep, there are several elected legislators asking the very same question and yesterday in response to an information demand letter (they have 30 days to respond by law) old Janet simply said the request was not for 1.6 billion rounds, it was for "up to 1.6 billion" and the clowns just bit off on that, like it was a real answer to "why."

You keep asking why bud. DHS is the 3rd largest budget/employer in the US Government.

The current misadministration, criminal cabal that they are, will never come clean about why they need so much ammo, guns, vehicles, etc. Just remember what the pretender in the Whitehouse said awhile back about about wanting his own 'civilian defense force' just as well equipped and funded as the US Military......
This is happening NOW.

Skeet, you echo the same thoughts as many of us. My 'spidey sense' has been jangling for over four years now...... 'something' is in the wind.
