When it’s ours, it’s an “assault weapon”. When it’s theirs, it spews daffodils and bunnies for self-defense.

Who thinks they’re not going to kill us..?

2 billion rounds for DHS FOR WHAT...?

Look up “Katyn Forest” —THAT is their plan for us.

Sure, the government procurement folks know how to use the correct nomenclature when they want to buy something. The propaganda wing (far-left members of Congress and their media attack dogs, among others) pay no attention to the facts and are impervious to cries of hypocrisy.

Check out the Statement of Work, where is describes the training to be provided along with the firearms. I'm not sure if that is common in these kind of purchases, but they're even requiring cutaway models of the guns for classroom use. It sure sounds like they intend to train up a bunch of new people, doesn't it?

The list of interested vendors includes some expected names - and one bid appeal attorney. This might not have reached the final award stage if someone raised a stink over some irregularity in the award. Perhaps an e-mail to Ronnie Barrett is in order; his company is among the listed potential vendors.

One thing that many may overlook with the Obama administration buy guns and ammo for all of these different departments like DHS and Dept of Education is that one effect of this is that it places an upward pressure on the prices that civilians pay for these same items.

Hence the higher prices that you and I pay for ammo. .223 ammo that went for $0.40 per round four years ago now goes for $1.00 a round or better.

Obama’s policies are forcing some civilians out of the personal defense firearms market.

Of course his policies are also frightening many citizens in to the market.

The law of unintended consequences.
