I heard something yesterday that blew me away.
My friends know I like to target shoot. I dont hunt, because I cant kill anything living, but I like guns. Maybe it has something to do with wanting to be James Bond when I was a kid OK, I still want to be 007.
As other target shooters know, its gotten harder and harder to get ammunition.
Fo a few years now, all kinds of stuff have been going around on the Internet about why ammunition is hard to get. Ive read a bunch of things, and friends send me links to articles all the time. But a friend I trust just shared some news that shocked me. I want you to hear this news, too.
Dollar Theory
Not too long ago, I came across some articles about how various federal agencies were stockpiling massive amounts of ammunition. One of the agencies was the IRS, the Internal Revenue Service.
I didnt think of IRS agents as gun-toting G-Men anymore, so that idea struck me as odd. Whats even odder, however, is that the ammo was supposedly hollow-point rounds.
Hollow-point rounds are deadly. They go into flesh and tissue the size of the bullet but spread out on impact. Theyre not for target shooting. Not even police officers are allowed to use hollow points.
Heres where this all comes together.
My friend asks me yesterday what I think about the U.S. dollar, our currency. I gave him my opinion. Then he asked me if I thought the dollar was going to collapse, as in totally collapse. I answered that I didnt think there was any reason it would just collapse.

Anyway, here's another prediction of collapse.
Not even police are allowed to use hollow points? Sorry but a lot of police departments use hollow points. In fact some departments require the use of hollow points because they’re more likely to break apart in case of misses and don’t ricochet as much.
“Not even police officers are allowed to use hollow points.”
Wrong.
I’ve been listening to guys like Porter Stansberry say this since 2009.
Not sure what to think because usually those pushing these predictions are trying to sell me something.
I would be more confident if the scumbags in Washington weren’t undermining the Middle Class and our Nations security at every turn and its not like we can trust the Media to be honest about ANYTHING.
Somebody pushing an investment advice newsletter.
The collapse began in 2010. We just haven’t hit the bottom yet.
The value of the dollar is 5% what it was when the Federal Reserve was founded in 1913. Prior to that the US currency tended to appreciate in value and was a reliable way to store and preserve wealth.
I like to consider the current value of the dollar by reversing the way I think of prices. Last year the dollar was worth 1/3 of a pound of ground beef, now it’s worth 1/5 of a pound. A dollar is worth about 1/4 of a gallon of gas now and diminishing rapidly.
It’s a good thing all these predictions of collapse are just hogwash.
I’m looking for it before January of 2017 is out. I notice that history repeats, but never identically. Nero fiddled while Rome burned. Obama Golfs while the US utterly collapses.
It is as clear as day. It’s why I changed my tag line.
You are assuming the writer means U.S. police departments but it was posted on a U.K. website.
From what I could find, 9mm FMJ is still the most common in European police departments.
I talk to new people every day in my job, and they are saying " I would not have said this 4 years ago but they don't trust this administration."
So as far as 'forces' who would collapse the dollar isn't that what Soros did to the UK ?
There is a difference between ordering ammunition and owning ammunition. The FedMob has ordered a lot of ammunition. Even if they had all the ammunition they have ordered in their possession it would still be dwarfed by the amount of ammunition in private hands.
Yep, I'm with you. The collapse does not have to be sudden, but just enough to put people into a panic because that's what it's all about.
Here's the complete scenario:
1. Trouble in the Middle East (ISIS, Hamas, Hezbollah, etc.) continues to worsen.
2. There is an attack on American soil, false flag or legit, for which the above terrorists will be blamed.
3. Obama goes to WAR! "This is not the real Islam.. blah, blah, blah."
4. The entire Middle East and much of the Islamic world is a conflagration as we attack everywhere - Iran, Turkey (yes, Turkey), Iraq, Libya, Tunisia, Qatar, UAE, etc. Maybe not Saudi Arabia and Egypt. Depends on if ISIL controls them yet.
5. The dollar is attacked by China and other haters of liberty because "America is starting World War 3... blah, blah, blah".
6. New president JEB! promises peace and economic stability. ("Remember the good old days of a Bush presidency?")
7. JEB! explains that the only way to avoid mass bloodshed and ruin is with a one-world government and currency - the panacea for all problems. "We are the world, we are the children... blah, blah, blah".
8. The elites control everything (wealth, guns, military, food, etc.) and bring the peace described in Schiller's Don Carlos - the peace of the grave.
9. Darkness descends over the earth.
“Hollow-point rounds are deadly.”
No kidding. And solid-points bullets aren’t deadly?
Bullets are supposed to be deadly. Key-rist.
“They go into flesh and tissue the size of the bullet but spread out on impact.”
Exactly. Perfect for urban shooting where the bullet stops when it hits its target and doesn’t just pass through the target and hit someone else. Key-rist. . .
“Theyre not for target shooting.”
They are not wad-cutters but they can be used for target shooting. Key-rist.
“Not even police officers are allowed to use hollow points.”
Wrong. Wrong. Wrong. Wrong. It is LOAC that prohibits the military from using hollow-points. PDs usually use hollow points because they stop when they hit the target. Key-rist.
Got that far in the article.
So much ignorance so quickly.
Maybe the article has ‘solid’ points, but insultingly ignorant statements at the opening just destroys any credibility of the writer.
lets think about this ammo idea...the population is 330 million, even if the government had 10x330,000,000=3300 million rounds of ammo, given 10 bullets for every one population....there isn’t enough guns to fire all those bullets, let along people to fire the guns...even if the government used automatic weapons, history demonstrates that machine guns can’t kill everyone....with a starving population, nothing is going to stop the human mass attacks on stores and government buildings....simply can’t kill enough people with bullets...poison gas is a different matter....

“Not even police are allowed to use hollow points? Sorry but a lot of police departments use hollow points. In fact some departments require the use of hollow points because theyre more likely to break apart in case of misses and dont ricochet as much.”
I hope all police use hollow point bullets for duty. When shooting someone to defend yourself, you want the most effective stopping power to stop the threat, and no one needs the over penetration of full metal jacket projectiles with possible injuries to non targeted persons and damage to property.
They'll hold them at bay until they can get to the gas, eh?
Where's my .22LR?
