I just did an Internet search on these as I had never heard of them. Geeze!

I wonder if my Nukealert would go off if it was on me when my car/truck got scanned? Dental X-ray machines supposedly set it off.

It's the EPA, Bureau of mines and other agencies you would never expect to have SWAT teams.

It has all been explained to us. We just need to listen.

So the government is buying .22 rounds....what military/SWAT/BlackOps weapon is chambered for .22 again?

The thing about conspiracy theories is you can't take them too far without them getting silly fast.

That would be the thousands of assassins who use a silenced 22 cal handgun at close range in crowds. They almost everywhere, following us all, waiting for that one text message contact from the handlers at Langley, ready to pounce with a shot to the brain case! Hmmm..... does that sound real?

I saw it all in the latest 007 movie and all the Bourne movies, and you know if it was there, it has to be true.

I believe it was specifically mentioned that the gov has purchased 40cal.. As former law enforcement this would be consistent with government police personal..
