The Department of Homeland
Security has redacted information relating to the quantity of bullets it
is buying following a controversy concerning the agency’s purchase of
over a billion rounds of ammo, which many fear is a sign the federal
government is preparing for civil unrest in the United States.
Despite the fact that documents are only supposed to be redacted if authorized by Congress or for national security reasons, a solicitation posted on the FedBizOpps website yesterday concerning ammunition purchases made by the DHS on behalf of Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE) contains numerous blacked out sections.
The classified portions of the document include references to the amount of 223 62 and 223 64 grain ammunition being purchased.
The solicitation explains
how the contract put out by the DHS to purchase the ammunition was not
subject to “full and open competition,” a process justified by what the
DHS claims was an “unusual and compelling urgency” to acquire the
bullets, noting that there is a shortage of bullets which is threatening
a situation which could cause “substantial safety issues for the
government” should law enforcement officials not be adequately armed.
The Department of Homeland
Security’s decision to black out sections of the document, including the
number of bullets being purchased, is likely to be related to a massive
controversy which has snowballed over the last few weeks pertaining to
concerns as to why the federal agency has purchased well over a billion
rounds of bullets over the last 6 months alone.
The DHS’ decision back in March to purchase of 450 million rounds of
.40-caliber hollow point bullets that are designed to expand upon entry
and cause maximum organ damage prompted questions as to why the federal
agency required such powerful bullets and in such large quantities
merely for training purposes.
This was followed up by a more recent order for a further 750 million rounds of assorted ammunition, including bullets that can penetrate walls.
Given the fact that the DHS is also acquiring riot gear in
preparation for civil unrest which could take place at the upcoming
DNC, RNC and presidential inauguration, the purchase of ammunition in
such massive numbers has stoked fears that the federal government could
be preparing to use force against the American people.
This screenshot illustrates how the DHS has blacked out information pertaining to the amount of bullets being purchased.
The trigger for this could
be an economic collapse that causes angry Americans to flood the streets
similar to scenes witnessed across Europe over the last two years.
As Mike Adams writes,
“The U.S. government clearly sees the writing on the wall. What lays
ahead for America is a day of unbearable reckoning. The financial
collapse will wipe out savings accounts, pensions, investment funds and
equities of the working class, all across the nation. Imagine bank
accounts being reset to zero, “bank holidays” enforced at gunpoint. That
will unleash a wave of violent protests, social chaos and even talk of
revolution. The government will almost certainly respond with a
declaration of Martial Law, the rolling out of highway checkpoints, and
before long, the use of live ammo on unruly protesters.”
The Social Security Administration has also recently purchased a large quantity of hollow point bullets, potentially signaling that authorities fear welfare riots could occur if benefit payments cannot be made. The NOAA also recently purchased 46,000 rounds of hollow point ammunition.
The DHS’ decision to censor
information related to bullet purchases for immigration authorities
could also be an attempt to assuage concerns that the agency is
expecting to have to resort to force to deal with a mass influx of
immigrants from Mexico.
Back in December, Department of Homeland Security chief Janet Napolitano directed ICE to
prepare for a substantial inundation of immigrants into the United
States, calling for the plan to deal with the “shelter” and “processing”
of large numbers of people.
During the Iran-Contra
hearings in 1987, it was revealed that the federal government had
established a contingency program under the pretext of a mass influx of
immigrants called Rex 84.
The program was a secretive “scenario and drill” developed by the
federal government to suspend the Constitution, declare martial law,
assign military commanders to take over state and local governments, and
detain large numbers of American citizens determined by the government
to be “national security threats.”
