It's inevitable that the watchful citizenry become paranoid conspiracy theorists when reading that the DHS is buying thousands of tanks (ostensibly to patrol American streets), billions of rounds of ammo, (and unmanned drones ordered to shoot down unarmed citizenry?). America under Nobama is swiftly turning into a socialist totalitarian police state.
Remember when DHS' Napolitano said the greatest terrorist threat the Obama administration faced were the US Military veterans returning from Iraq and Afghanistan?

I fault Bush for creating yet another massive Gov’t bureaucracy in the first place.
If you create such a huge agency, staff it with tens of thousands of people, give it billions of dollars, what do you think its going to do? It will find a mission for itself.

The drones are to keep tabs on the undocumented aliens that they just released into the country.
The tanks are to help tow people during big snowstorms.

If true, and I have no reason to doubt it, then WTF does DHS need 2700 armored vehicles for? It has been pretty easy to explain away the ammo, but what can anyone possibly say armored vehicles are for? Training? Yea, right.
30-35,000 drones? Must be planning on having a bunch shot down.

Maybe they are for use as rescue vehicles in the inner city, where the residents randomly fire on police and fire vehicles.
Yeah, it is creepy. 2700 is a lot of them.

Don’t know if true but heard on the inter-web;
Fill mason jars with ammonia, throw at ventilation intakes. There is no way to filter out ammonia. Occupants will exit vehicle, act on threat.

Need to pass a law quickly that drones can only be used on southern border of US.

This is all super creepy. But these are not tanks, they are “Armored Cars”. When the original author called them tanks it makes us look like goof-balls. But no doubt these are being made to use on unruly american citizens.

Stupid government. You think they would at least give the contract to build the tanks to GM. After all, we own the company..
