I hope holder does at least 10 years in the federal slammer. He can take John Mitchell's old cell.

Congress is apart of the government. Well in training you could be required to shoot objects, thus training is a valid reason to need bullets.

I know for a fact that it is almost impossible to find any commonly-used ammunition for sale, a nationwide shortage that has been going on for a year now and has no end in sight. And I know from asking service reps and managers at Cabelas and Kittery Trading Post and Walmart that the shortages are NOT due to high customer demand, but due to ammo suppliers being unable to supply the stores since they must first supply government.

I am terrified that government is buying the nation's entire ammunition supply, and creating what amounts to an internal army that has no legitimate purpose. I hope to God that it merely is a sneaky attempt by Obama to achieve his anti-gun agenda and build ever-bigger Big Government, rather than a gearing-up to take care of opposition when he decides to do something so horrendous that peaceful Americans are driven to defend themselves with violence. People like the Branch Davidians may have been crazy religious nuts, but they were absolutely right to fear the government that eventually burned them and their children to death.
Funny how one missed event and you say they do nothing without considering that they might of stopped several attacks before they have happened. I remember one terrorists attack that was stopped in Portland, Or around Christmas a few years back.

What do you suppose they are training for, U-Life.
What will they be shooting at in the future, with that huge number of rounds ?

They are buying in order to keep the prices up and the gunmakers prosperous. Just another way to rip off the government and, by excessively high prices, us.

DHS will share their armament with the IRS and EPA. Apparently as more regs bypass congress to become the law of the land and more stories of EPA raiding guitar factories and farm dinners with guns drawn, it makes sense for a domestic fedral agency to stock up and dry up the shelves of gun shops.

there is no apparent reason for the DHS to have so much guns and ammo.

In light of that breakdown of logic with no reasonable explanatiomn from the feds, we will indeed create 'the rest of the story' as obligated by any person of sufficient intelligence.

Taken together with the IRS targeting people and sharing that info with other federal agencies, our world is being turned upside down as Obama, the judas goat, forces socialism on America. We now have a president, dir of DHS, sec of state and DOJ who repeatedly claim they did not know what was going on in their depts. That either means they are lying or incompotent which translates into bad things happening to citizens.

As for the DHS vs the military....they don't need to do that as the DHS will be entirely domestic and out of the pervue of the military. Do you see the military getting involved in the case of the lady who applied for 'non profit' status and was decended upon by the IRS and other federal agencies?

All the while the IRS head guy claims the IRS does not share info with other agencies. This is clearly a first step in the intimidation and elimination of political opposition... hoffa said to take out the opposition, obama told latinos to fight their enemies, MO wants to re-write our history. The military is not involved.

You do recal when Obama set up the whitehosue dot gove website and encouraged people to send in names and emails of people who opposed obamacare..... this stuff screams the arrival of a despotic regime on our shores.

From a marketing standpoint the DHS, 'homeland' is directly taken from the Nazification of Germany....where .....ve deed eet for zee homeland!!!!! we were only following orders.....

Cutting down on military population and encourgaing unregistered democrats from mexico to join the military service to get citizenship, gang members joining up for the training, eventually evolves the military to support the adminsitraion.

Di you mean,
Congress is:

Congress is:

If you said, #2, then I would agree with you.
