DHS is part of Obama’s army. Obama considers the Border Patrol as the enemy. The time is nearing...

At qualification range, there is no difference ballistically, particularly in felt recoil, between a .40 cal 180 grain JHP and a similar FMJ.

Cost difference, however, can be quite large.

I don’t practice w/ JHPs, do you?

I have no idea what is going on. I am not even sure anything is going on but I wouldn’t be surprised if Obama was planning on destroying the country.

” Napolitano is hoarding all the ammo for use by Obama’s Civilian National Security Force to take out Christians, Heterosexual whites, wounded veterans and other Bitter Clingers.”

Sounds about right.

I was not attempting to justify their policy only explain it. No doubt there are ways to do it more cost effectively but we are talking about the Federal government here.

It’s a budget issue not a supply issue. They are also looking at canceling qualifying for 1 quarter.

Yes. In fact all federal law enforcement does and has since Clinton.

If DHS is part of Obama’s army, then the Border Patrol is also. BP is part of CBP which is part of DHS.

I had read that somewhere, didn’t know if it was correct, but strange that all the ammo being purchased, and the BP is not getting enough?

The ammo purchases are for deliveries covering 5 years. I doubt there is a shortage. If the BP is short then all of CBP would be short and the CBPO’s are not short as far as I know. I'll know next week as I will be doing this quarters qualifying.

I wonder if Obama wants the National Civilian Security Force to be similar to the Waffen SS?

After watching this video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sZ3QXxmcvss
about them I learned that they competed directly with the regular army (Wehrmacht).

Quote from the documentary (starting around the 3:20 mark):
“The head of the SS - Heinrich Himmler - wanted a unique, new force. An army of ideologically committed elite troops to rival the regular army.”

Obama did say, “We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we’ve set. We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.”
