Obama just bought 1.6 billion rounds of ammo

[Misfit]

If Obama is opposed to guns, why did his administration just purchase 1.6 billion rounds of ammunition and sniper rounds?

"An evil exists that threatens every man, woman and child of this great nation. We must take steps to ensure our domestic security and protect our homeland." - Adolf Hitler, 1922.

In the aftermath of the recent Sandy Hook shooting, Obama and his cohorts are screaming about how they all despise guns and ammo. Guns are the problem in America today, we've been told from every corner of the media, and so the only solution is to get rid of all the guns.

But not exactly. There's one organization in America that's loading up on masses of assault rifles and enough ammunition to run a 10-year shooting war. That organization is, of course, the U.S. federal government and its Department of Homeland Security (DHS), which has purchased a total of 1.6 billion rounds of ammunition to be used domestically, inside the United States.

It begs the question: Why does the Department of Homeland Security -- named after Hitler's "Office of Fatherland Security" -- need 1.6 billion rounds of ammo?

I like how people try to compare Obama to a dictator like Hitler, when the department of homeland security was established under BUSH.

I know right?
and he did such a good job with it that obama has failed at every attempt to dismantle it.
Hey, maybe if obama can get rid of the 2nd, we can be free enough to not have to worry about all the filthy illegals that the butt chunk keeps letting in.

Okay, let me rephrase the question.

Could it have something to do with the sheer number of people that work for the DHS?

In all, at least 263 organizations have been created or reorganized as a response to 9/11. Each has required more people, and those people have required more administrative and logistic support: phone operators, secretaries, librarians, architects, carpenters, construction workers, air-conditioning mechanics and, because of where they work, even janitors with top-secret clearances.

This whole article points out the staggering size of the DHS.

Remember, all this was created under Bush as a kneejerk reaction to 9/11. Kneejerk reaction legislation never works.
