El Dorado Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Headline on Drudge this morning....... It is now estimated that DHS will have the capacity to wage full scale war for 30 years. WTF is going on? Just a short time ago they also ordered 7000 Colt M-16 selective fire rifles. I wrote a letter to my congressman demanding answers and an explanation as to why congress is allowing the funding for all this. I think that secretly the Liar-in-Cheif has been fulfilling one of his promises to have a National Civil Defense Force. He stated that to be one of his goals prior to his first election and also stated that this force would be equally trained and equipped as the military....

garimpo Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Why do I suddenly feel "lesssafe"????Just so youknowOur WhiteHouse is getting ready to KILL US if Necessary.DHS buys 7000 full-autoassault rifles, calls them ‘personal defense weapons’MikeAdamsNatural NewsIn yetanother huge blow to the rhetoric and narrative of the Obama administration andits desire to disarm the American public, a DHS bid has been uncovered (see documentsbelow) showing that the Department of Homeland Security recently put out anoffer to purchase 7,000full-auto “assault weapons” to be used domestically, inside theUSA.Keep in mind that President Obama is on the record saying,“AK-47s belong in the hands of soldiers, not in the hands of criminals; thatthey belong on the battlefield of war, not on the streets of ourcities.”But it seems he really means they don’t belong on the streetsof our cities unlessthey are in the hands of homeland security enforcers, in whichcase they can be FULL-AUTO assaultweapons.The DHS bid for 7,000 full-auto assault weapons is found by clicking here.The original credit for discovering this goes, to my best knowledge, to Awr Hawkins atBreitbart.com.In the hands of the government,they’re called “Personal DefenseWeapons”The juiciest part of this bid is the use ofthe phrase “Personal Defense Weapons” to describe the full-auto AR-15s beingpurchased by DHS.Apparently, when YOUhold an AR-15, it’s an “assault rifle.” But magically, if you hand that samerifle to an armed government homeland security enforcer, it instantly transformsitself into a “personal defense weapon.”The request for bid actuallysays:DHS and its components have a requirement for a5.56x45mm NATO, select-fire firearm suitable for personal defense use in closequarters and / or when maximum concealment is required.So thereit is, right in black and white: DHSenforcers need full-auto AR-15s which are “suitable for personal defense in close quarters” and for “maximumconcealment.”But if you or I make the same claim, suddenly we arebranded lunatics by the fringe left and all the gun grabbers across America whoapparently have no clue that their own government is arming uplike never before.Senator Feinstein, the gun-grabbing Senatorfrom California, says she wants to take all the guns from all Americans.“Mr. and Mrs. America, turn ‘em all in,” she says on the record. But while Mr.and Mrs. America are turning in their guns, ‘roid-head DHS goons are arming tothe teeth with full-auto assaultrifles.This is all on top of the 1.6 billion rounds ofammunition the U.S. government has already stockpiled, as was discoveredlast year. What kind of government wants to domestically stockpile ammo andfull-auto weapons, putting them in the hands of domestic agents whohave nothing whatsoever to do with overseas wars? Well, the kind of governmentthat plans to NEED 1.6 billion rounds of ammo and full-auto assault weapons, ofcourse.Read somelanguage from the contract bid: Pistol grips, full-auto andmoreClick here to see thebid.Here’s some selected text from the bid:ICE/MissionSupport-DCImmigration and CustomsEnforcementOffice of AcquisitionManagement801 I Street NW, Suite980Washington DC20536Troy Teachey, troy.teachey@dhs.govDelivery LocationCode: ICE/AS/NFTTUICE Natl Firearm Tactical TrngUnitImmigration and Customs Enforcement500 12th ST SW,Washington DC 205365.56X45mm NATO Personal DefenseWeaponDuring the base period and fouroption periods of this contract the maximum ceiling is$9,800,000.Click here for the PDFdocument containing the following text:The scope of this contract is toprovide a total of up to 7,000 5.56x45mm North Atlantic Treaty Organization(NATO) personal defense weapons (PDW) throughout the life of this contract tonumerous Department of Homeland Security components.Theaction shall be select-fire (capable of semi-automatic and automaticfire).The action shall be capable of accepting allstandard NATO STANAG 20 and 30 round M16 magazines (NSN 1005-00-921-5004) andMagpul 30 round PMAG (NSN 1005-01-576-5159). The magazine shall have a capacityto hold thirty (30) 5.56x45mm NATO rounds.The receiver topshall be equipped with an integral MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny rail for mountingsights and other accessories.The fire control selector shall havethree positions; safe, semi-automatic, and automatic.The pistol grip shall be a fixed,vertical pistol grip constructed of a durablematerial.DHS admits AR-15 with 30-roundmagazine is “suitable for personal defense use in closequarters”Thisgovernment document openly admits that AR-15s with 30-round magazines andcapable of fully automatic fire are “suitable for personal defense” in closequarters (i.e. your home).CNN, of course, doesn’t want you to everhear that. Nor does Feinstein, Cuomo, Schumer, Obama, Eric Holder or any othergun grabbers. Even while their own government is arming up with 1.6 billionrounds of ammo and 7,000 full-auto “assault rifles” (plus lots more in other bids),they are trying to completely disarm the American citizenry through new gunregistration and confiscation legislation.The whole point of all this, ofcourse, is to createfirepower disparity between the government and the citizenry… Todisarm the People while arming up the government agents who operatedomestically. That way, the people can be forced at gunpoint into doingalmost anything the oppressive government demands! (Taking vaccine shots, givingup private property, turning over farms and businesses, etc.)What’s reallyhard-hitting about this is that the radical left keeps claiming things like “noone needs an assault rifle for personal defense.” Okay, if that true, then theDepartment of Homeland Security should abandon all such rifles first! Let’s seeDHS turn in all its rifles and ammo, thereby setting an example of the “fact”that “nobody needs an assault rifle” for self defense.Intruth, a full-autoAR-15 is an outstanding weapon for self defense, which isexactly why DHS is buying thousands of them. Nothing stops bad guys faster thana barrage of high-velocity lead aimed in their direction. Again, that’s why DHSwants these rifles in the first place. One of these rifles in the hands of acitizen could have stopped the Sandy Hook shooting in seconds.Pay attention to the word games(which are really mind games)As you observe the highlymanipulated gun control argument, pay special attention to the word games you’rebeing subjected to:An AR-15 in the hands of a citizen is an “assaultrifle.”But an AR-15 in the hands of a DHS agent is a “Personal DefenseWeapon.”A full-auto-capable rifle in the hands of a citizen is called a“machine gun.”A full-auto-capable rifle in the hands of a DHS agent iscalled a “select-fire rifle.”According to the media, all government agentswith assault rifles are presumed innocent andassumed to be stopping crime.But all private citizens with assault riflesare presumedguilty and assumed to be causing crime.When one citizen goescrazy and murders a bunch of people, the call goes out for ALL citizens to bestripped of their firearms.But when one governmentagent goes crazy and murders a bunch of people, the calls goesout for MORE guns to be placed in the hands of MORE governmentagents!Thank you,DHS, for admitting the truthIn summary, it looks like weactually need to thank the DHS for admitting the truth that Obamawon’t: AR-15s arepersonal defense weapons, suitable for use in close quarters,especially when equipped with 30-round magazines.That’s why I own one, andit’s why DHS wants thousands more (but theirs are full-auto, while mine is onlysemi-auto).As a general rule, all freedom-loving Americans should want thesame firepower their domestic government possesses. That’s the whole pointbehind the Second Amendment, and it represents the distribution ofpower in a free society.But instead of firepower being equalin America today, DHS is using our taxpayer dollars to purchase thousands offull-auto weapons for their own agents. This is apparently being done under ICE(Immigration and Customs Enforcement).This brings up the question foranother entire article, and here’s the question: Why does immigration need 7,000full-auto assault rifles? Is there a friggin’ Mexican invasionplanned that nobody told me about? Is ICE going to invade Mexico and start ashooting war with the Mexican drug cartels?Seriously: Why does ICE need7,000 full-auto assault rifles? And why does DHS need 1.6 billion rounds ofammo?

Kaimi Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Aloha guys,Seems to me that this would also be the time to buy some stock in the low bidder of this contract as the government usually just tacks on some change orders and that means MORE guns added to the order without bidding for them.I know this because I used to rep a couple of companies that sold exclusively to law enforcment departments and I was always asked if they could add another counties request proposal using my price. I ALWAYS agreed because then I wouldn't have to go thru the bidding process all over again. Sold so many intoxilyzers and radar uniit in one year the company asked me to come to Kentucky so speak to the other reps.Aloha and stock up now while you can,Stan aka Kaimi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steel Pan Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 I'm wondering about the type of weapons on a Drone.Could the mass of ammo be for them? I remember the Mini Guns of the Nam era.No doubt "they" can make 'em fit on a Drone.Could clean out a whole neigborhood in no time at all. ...and ya know what, I don't think it matters who is in the W.H.

~LARGO~ Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Hi all,The city fathers here in Boise are trying to get a drone training base at the local Gowen Field air base.It has been a A-10 base for some years, and since the city owns all the real estate that the base sits, it onlymakes sense that they want to keep the $$ rolling in from the feds. Pisses me off more than a little as wejust went through several years of trying to keep the latest u.s. jet fighters from having a training base locatedless than a mile from my house.So, I am confident having sent various letters/emails/petitions et cetera over time regarding all kinds of issues, that my house has a big x on it on their maps.So, if any one has a desert spot at a reasonable price, perhaps we can work out a trade. Maybe throw in themissus if she doesnt want to make the move...The county is thinking on buying some surveillance drones, as well, I wonder what they are wanting to see??? Its not the wonderful country it once was, obviously.Gary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
