Issue : 1.6 Billion Rounds Of Ammo For Homeland Security? It's Time For A National Conversation

--------------------------------------------------

Respected Representatives,

This article has came to my attention and I feel that every US Citizen needs answers to these questions of wanton spending by DHS on unnecessary expenditures and the true purposes of these operations in the US. The current views of the article showed nearly a half million views (414 thousand +).

1.6 Billion Rounds Of Ammo For Homeland Security? It's Time For A National Conversation

The Denver Post, on February 15th, ran an Associated Press article entitled Homeland Security aims to buy 1.6b rounds of ammo, so far to little notice.  It confirmed that the Department of Homeland Security has issued an open purchase order for 1.6 billion rounds of ammunition.  As reported elsewhere, some of this purchase order is for hollow-point rounds, forbidden by international law for use in war, along with a frightening amount specialized for snipers. Also reported elsewhere, at the height of the Iraq War the Army was expending less than 6 million rounds a month.  Therefore 1.6 billion rounds would be enough to sustain a hot war for 20+ years.  In America.

Mr. Obama?  Where’s the disdain now?  Cancelling, or at minimum, drastically scaling back — by 90% or even 99%, the DHS order for ammo, and its receipt and deployment of armored personnel carriers, would be a “fourfer.”

    The federal government would set an example of restraint in the matter of weaponry.
    It would reduce the deficit without squeezing essential services.
    It would do both in a way that was palatable to liberals and conservatives, slightly depolarizing America.
    It would somewhat defuse, by the government making itself less armed-to-the-teeth, the anxiety of those who mistrust the benevolence of the federales.

If Obama doesn’t show any leadership on this matter it’s an opportunity for Rep. Darrell Issa, chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, and Rep. Michael McCaul, chairman of the House Committee on Homeland Security, to summon Secretary Napolitano over for a little national conversation. Madame Secretary?  Buying 1.6 billion rounds of ammo and deploying armored personnel carriers runs contrary, in every way, to what “homeland security” really means.  Discuss.

----------------------------------------------

I would like further information concerning why the supposed expenditures on this amount of ammunition especially.

Please also work on getting the criminal fraud Illegal Immigrant, Kenyan born, Barack Hussein Obama and his associates out of our Oval Office. I have sent multiple references to this crime against the US Citizens multiple times and I post these letters on the social media sites I am members of to be shared.

It is a travesty of law that this has been allowed to continue for this long. Failure of our Representatives to take legal corrective actions appears to be making the Representatives complicit in this illegal action.

Please work in all your power to correct these crimes and actions.
