What is the story behind all these federal agencies that keep attempting to purchase small arms and ammo?
We've told you about these issues before... with DHS making huge purchase orders for ammo but this latest one is coming from the U.S. Postal Service
On January 31 of this year the USPS posted a solicitation to purchase "assorted small arms ammuntion" on the federal government's federal business opportunities website (FBO.gov). The solicitation is structured to begin a bidding process for the purchase of guns and ammunition.
Why is the US postal service soliciting orders for small arms ammo? Is this not a fiscal sanity issue?
May 2014 Why is DHS Department Homeland Security buying so much ammo?
March 2013 - Terry M. Hestilow, a retired United States Army Captain from Fort Worth, Texas, posted a letter on Facebook that he wrote to Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, warning that the Department of Homeland Security is preparing to go to war with the citizens of the United States.
Senator Cornyn - We each have a role to play in standing against this present tyranny.
This act of the Obama administration stands as a glaring threat of war against our nation's citizens!
This act of the Obama administration can only be understood as a tyrannical threat against the Constitution of the United States of America!
"The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is preparing for "massive civil war" in America.The federal government is preparing for civil uprising," he added, "so every time you hear about troop movements, every time you hear about movements of military equipment, the militarization of the police, the buying of the ammunition, all of this is . . . they (DHS) are preparing for a massive uprising."
We stand today at a cross-road. Will we allow this present Administration to overthrow our United States Constitution or will we honor our obligations to defend the Constitution against a "domestic" enemy?
One needs only to look to the rise of Adolf Hitler, and his associated DHS organizations, the SA and the SS, of 1932-1934, to see the outcome of allowing an agency of government this kind of control over the free citizens of a nation.

If left unresolved, the peace loving citizens who have sworn to defend the United States Constitution "against all enemies, both foreign and domestic" are left no option except to prepare to defend themselves, and the U.S. Constitution, against this Administration's "coup" against the People and the foundations of liberty fought for and defended for the past 238 years. We have no choice if we honor our oaths.
To date, DHS has been unwilling to provide to you, the elected representatives of the People, justification for recent purchases of almost 3,000 mine-resistant ambush-protected (MRAP) armored personnel carriers, 1.6 billion rounds of ammunition (with associated weapons), and other weapons systems, when, in fact, the DHS has no war mission or war making authority within the limits of the United States of America.
Dear Senator Cornyn,
It is with gravest concern that I write to you concerning the recent appropriation of weapons by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) that can only be understood as a bold threat of war by that agency, and the Obama administration, against the citizens of the United States of America.
Significant is the fact that at the same time the Obama administration is arming his DHS for war within the limits of the United States against the People of the United States in accordance with his 2008 campaign speech claiming,
We've gotta have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well funded [as the United States military]"--Candidate Barack Obama, 2008.
The Obama administration is deliberately defunding, overextending, and hollowing the Department of Defense; the only legitimate agency of the U.S. government with a war mission.
The only proper response to this threat against the American people is for the representatives of the People, the members of the U.S. House and Senate, to demand in clear terms that the Administration cannot ignore, that the Department of Homeland Security immediately surrender their newly appropriated weapons of war to the Department of Defense (DoD).
THIS WHOLE THING GETS MORE DISTURBING BY THE DAY.USDA HAS NO POLICE POWERS NOR SHOULD IT NEED THIS KIND OF MILITARY WEAPON.WITH FLIR SCOPES FORE NIGHT OR SMOKE VISIBILITY
UPDATE 2: This story from Infowars is quoted in FOX NEWS.
"Agencies tamp down speculation over hollow-point ammo purchases"
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2012/...
UPDATE 1: "The Department of Homeland Security has redacted information relating to the quantity of bullets it is buying following a controversy concerning the agency's purchase of over a billion rounds of ammo, which many fear is a sign the federal government is preparing for civil unrest in the United States.
Despite the fact that documents are only supposed to be redacted if authorized by Congress or for national security reasons, a solicitation posted on the FedBizOpps website yesterday concerning ammunition purchases made by the DHS on behalf of Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE) contains numerous blacked out sections.
The classified portions of the document include references to the amount of 223 62 and 223 64 grain ammunition being purchased."

Why Is Obama's Growing DHS Army Buying Armored Vehicles?
http://news.investors.com/ibd-editori...
Local law enforcement agencies across the country are facing an ammo shortage, as gun owners concerned about new laws at the federal and state level stock up on firearms and bullets.
At the same time, the Department of Homeland Security has said it wants to buy more than 1.6 billion rounds of ammunition in the next four or five years -- which could put further strain on the supply.
The shortage, coupled with an increase in prices, comes as many gun owners head to the stores in anticipation of new gun control laws. States like Colorado and New York have already approved such legislation, while Democrats move toward bringing a bill to the Senate floor. At the moment, the congressional bill does not include an assault-weapons ban, but a ban is expected to be floated as an amendment.
Still, what one official described as "panic-buying" set in, as lawmakers rallied to draft new legislation in the wake of a series of tragic mass shootings last year, from Aurora, Colo., to Oak Creek, Wis., to Newtown, Conn.
In Tennessee's Hamilton County, the sheriff's department says its officers will be given fewer bullets when they train at the range.
"The concern over firearms availability and ammunition availability and potentials of gun control certainly has impacted the availability of ammunition purchased locally," training coordinator Jody Mays said, according to WDEF.
Earlier this year, Rollingwood Police Chief Dayne Pryor told MyFoxAustin.com that "panic-buying" is contributing to a situation where officers trying to order new firearms are being forced to wait. He said the city, which is outside Austin, has been told to expect wait times to purchase AR-15s and ammunition.
"We have adequate supplies right now, but we're limited to how often we can go to the firing range to train because we want to be conservative right now," he said.
Similarly, the Jenks Police Department in Oklahoma has faced rising ammo and assault weapons costs.
Police Chief Cameron Arthur said the department is still waiting on an order from October, according to KJRH.
Meanwhile, according to CNSNews.com, Rep. Timothy Huelskamp, R-Kan., said he still hasn't heard back from the Department of Homeland Security on why it's buying 1.6 billion rounds.
The Homeland Security Department, though, has said it needs the bullets for law enforcement agents in training and on duty.
Published federal notices about the ammo buy have agitated conspiracy theorists since the fall. The government's explanation is much less sinister.
The Federal Law Enforcement Training Center in Glynco, Ga., and others like it run by DHS use up to 15 million rounds a year, mostly on shooting ranges and in training exercises.
More than 90 federal agencies and 70,000 agents and officers used the department's training center last year.
The rest of the 1.6 billion rounds of ammunition would be purchased by Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the federal government's second largest criminal investigative agency.
The Homeland Security ammo buy is not the first time the government's bullets purchases have sparked concerns on the Internet. The same thing happened last year when the Social Security Administration posted a notice that it was buying 174,000 hollow point bullets.
"Top Priority: The Terror Within" explores issues that have sparked nationwide controversy such as the USA PATRIOT Act and illegal tactics improperly used against law-abiding Americans under the guise of "the war on terror". Julia Davis, a former federal officer with the Department of Homeland Security, discovered and reported a breach of national security at the largest and busiest land border crossing in the U.S. on 4th of July, 2004. When the DHS failed to act on her reports, she took her concerns to the FBI/JTTF.
