Anonymous Coward User ID: 14443159 United States 02/07/2013 08:13 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | DHS Purchases 21.6 Million More Rounds of Ammunition Quoting: Anonymous Coward 30914012 An approximation of how many rounds of ammunition the DHS has now secured over the last 10 months stands at around 1.625 billion. In March 2012, ATK announced that they had agreed to provide the DHS with a maximum of 450 million bullets over four years, a story that prompted questions about why the feds were buying ammunition in such large quantities. Quoting: To put that in perspective, during the height of active battle operations in Iraq, US soldiers used 5.5 million rounds of ammunition a month. Extrapolating the figures, the DHS has purchased enough bullets over the last 10 months to wage a full scale war for almost 30 years. and DHS stands for what? |

"I have felt despair many times in my life, but I do not keep a chair for it." ~Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estes Today is a gift, that is why it is called "The Present" “When an opponent declares, “I will not come over to your side,” I calmly say, “Your child belongs to us already… What are you? You will pass on. Your descendants, however, now stand in the new camp.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1474948 United States 02/07/2013 09:16 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | i don't think its a case of them wanting all the bullets. Quoting: SmuRidley it's a case of the public not having 1.6 billion bullets availible to us. disarmament. plain and simple I agree. They know gun control is a no go so they are going after the ammunition. My question is, why is so much money budgeted to DHS that they can waste if on stockpiling billions of one specific item that they will never use. Another case of government waste. |
