DHS Massive Police State Tac Gear Buildup
The Intel Hub ^ | April 4, 2012 | The Intel Hub

Posted on 04/06/2012 9:48:44 AM PDT by Yollopoliuhqui

The Department of Homeland Security has made news in the past few weeks with the revelations that they have purchased up to 650 million rounds of .40 caliber hollow point ammunition.

Now, despite ignoring requests as to why they need that much ammo, they have moved forward and purchased an unknown amount of bullet resistant booths to possibly be stationed at unannounced checkpoints throughout the country.

For a News/"ACTIVISM" forum, I don't see this issue being tracked very closely by Freepers. This issue needs a government hearing and needs to become a campaign issue unless the notion of a Nazi police state mobilized into a full takeover in a matter of days given a suitcase nuke or similar scenario is appealing to conservatives.

I’m not so worried about it. If a bunch of JBT’s show up on our local roads to impose a dictatorship they’ll last about a day. Probably less.

I also have faith in our military to mobilize and put these mutts down.

The official auxiliary of the U.S. Air Force is Civil Air Patrol...

Care to guess what DoD-funded organization has become increasingly tied to (and tasked by) DHS and FEMA?

This novel was alarmingly too real....
http://www.enemiesforeignanddomestic.com/
ENEMIES FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC is about one of the several fault lines dividing the world views that co-exist uneasily within the United States today. One side of this ideological divide believes that American gun rights are a dangerous anachronism, and that firearms ownership should be strictly regulated, and as far as possible curtailed by the government. This side of American society desires to see all firearms registered with the government, and many classes of firearms banned.

It would be like Christmas to open the back of a blacked-out Suburban and find a few crates of .40 cal.

Having numerous family members, close friends, and neighbors who are in law enforcement on the local, state, and federal levels, I don’t worry too much about a bunch of agents with guns.

I hunt with my cousin, a seasoned AF MP, and she’s assured me that the majority of federal grunts couldn’t hit the broadside of a barn. Your run-of-the-mill hunters, plinkers, and most American gun owners would run out even the most tenured DHS grunt.

No self-respecting former military man or woman would participate in the bullying or killing of Americans. Every last military man and woman with whom I’ve discussed this issue has said the same. Obama’s “army” (small A) will be a bunch of ignorant thugs.

The faster these idiots break things, the faster American patriots can step forward to put this great nation back on the right track.

Everyone should consider that this is a

“contract to buy up to X rounds”.

It is not “they have purchased X rounds”.

The shack.

UL 752 Bullet Resistant Booth
Security Guard Shack SDB133

Description:

Shelters Direct provided and installed this 4x13 steel UL 752 Bullet Resistant Level 3 security guard building. Decorative window grille frames, a standing seam hip roof, and custom security lighting are featured in this guard station.

Good luck on that, it will work for the sheep but ten bucks says they wont try this level of stupid in an "ethnically oriented neighborhood."

But not illegal voters.

Which is more dangerous and oppresive?

In my opinion. illegal voters (dead, repeat voters and non-citizens.)

I'm dubious that that would happen. Take a look at Lt Col Lakin and the guy who is currently bring processed for a General Discharge because he questioned 0bama's eligibility. I'm afraid that most would be good little soldiers and just go along.

Can’t help but wonder how that would stand up to an F-750 with a brick on the accelerator.

Bullet resistant, huh? Neat. I wonder if it’s fireproof.
