While we should be aware of what the DHS is doing, one explanation I’ve read that makes a lot of sense is that somebody is simply making a ton of cash from buying all these bullets.

By buying the bullets straight from the manufacturer, they are getting a huge discout. Then they are turning around and re-selling them to the government agencies at a huge markup.

I don’t know who that person is, but that may be what they are doing.

Or perhaps causing a massive shortage of ammo so civilians can’t get it. Some of these gov’t orders are multi-year orders.

If D.H.S. is buying all of this ammunition I don’t see why they wouldn’t plan on Using it.Unless they had something else in mind.Like getting all of that ammo off the market by making it Prohibitively expensive.

If they are doing this that indicates that this administration is up to no good.Keep your eyes open Folks.

Homeland Security’s not reselling ammo to anyone. Who would they ‘resell’ to anyhow? A foreign country? The Sauds? Social Security’s also making large buys.

Too bad we don’t have a free press or they could ask and investigate and find out. If a Republican President5 was setting up a personal army the press would care... Hey New York Times, I’m talkin’ about you.
