Some of the stuff they do is down right Scary.
DHS buys 7000 full-auto
assault rifles, calls them ‘personal defense weapons’
Mike
Adams
Natural News
In yet
another huge blow to the rhetoric and narrative of the Obama administration and
its desire to disarm the American public, a DHS bid has been uncovered (see documents
below) showing that the Department of Homeland Security recently put out an
offer to purchase 7,000
full-auto “assault weapons” to be used domestically, inside the
USA.
Keep in mind that President Obama is on the record saying,
“AK-47s belong in the hands of soldiers, not in the hands of criminals; that
they belong on the battlefield of war, not on the streets of our
cities.”
But it seems he really means they don’t belong on the streets
of our cities unless
they are in the hands of homeland security enforcers, in which
case they can be FULL-AUTO assault
weapons.
The DHS bid for 7,000 full-auto assault weapons is found by clicking here.
The original credit for discovering this goes, to my best knowledge, to Awr Hawkins at
Breitbart.com.
In the hands of the government,
they’re called “Personal Defense
Weapons”
The juiciest part of this bid is the use of
the phrase “Personal Defense Weapons” to describe the full-auto AR-15s being
purchased by DHS.
Apparently, when YOU
hold an AR-15, it’s an “assault rifle.” But magically, if you hand that same
rifle to an armed government homeland security enforcer, it instantly transforms
itself into a “personal defense weapon.”
The request for bid actually
says:
DHS and its components have a requirement for a
5.56x45mm NATO, select-fire firearm suitable for personal defense use in close
quarters and / or when maximum concealment is required.
So there
it is, right in black and white: DHS
enforcers need full-auto AR-15s which are “suitable for personal defense in close quarters” and for “maximum
concealment.”
But if you or I make the same claim, suddenly we are
branded lunatics by the fringe left and all the gun grabbers across America who
apparently have no clue that their own government is arming up
like never before.
Senator Feinstein, the gun-grabbing Senator
from California, says she wants to take all the guns from all Americans.
“Mr. and Mrs. America, turn ‘em all in,” she says on the record. But while Mr.
and Mrs. America are turning in their guns, ‘roid-head DHS goons are arming to
the teeth with full-auto assault
rifles.
This is all on top of the 1.6 billion rounds of
ammunition the U.S. government has already stockpiled, as was discovered
last year. What kind of government wants to domestically stockpile ammo and
full-auto weapons, putting them in the hands of domestic agents who
have nothing whatsoever to do with overseas wars? Well, the kind of government
that plans to NEED 1.6 billion rounds of ammo and full-auto assault weapons, of
course.

DHS admits AR-15 with 30-round
magazine is “suitable for personal defense use in close
quarters”
This
government document openly admits that AR-15s with 30-round magazines and
capable of fully automatic fire are “suitable for personal defense” in close
quarters (i.e. your home).
CNN, of course, doesn’t want you to ever
hear that. Nor does Feinstein, Cuomo, Schumer, Obama, Eric Holder or any other
gun grabbers. Even while their own government is arming up with 1.6 billion
rounds of ammo and 7,000 full-auto “assault rifles” (plus lots more in other bids),
they are trying to completely disarm the American citizenry through new gun
registration and confiscation legislation.
The whole point of all this, of
course, is to create
firepower disparity between the government and the citizenry… To
disarm the People while arming up the government agents who operate
domestically. That way, the people can be forced at gunpoint into doing
almost anything the oppressive government demands! (Taking vaccine shots, giving
up private property, turning over farms and businesses, etc.)
What’s really
hard-hitting about this is that the radical left keeps claiming things like “no
one needs an assault rifle for personal defense.” Okay, if that true, then the
Department of Homeland Security should abandon all such rifles first! Let’s see
DHS turn in all its rifles and ammo, thereby setting an example of the “fact”
that “nobody needs an assault rifle” for self defense.
In
truth, a full-auto
AR-15 is an outstanding weapon for self defense, which is
exactly why DHS is buying thousands of them. Nothing stops bad guys faster than
a barrage of high-velocity lead aimed in their direction. Again, that’s why DHS
wants these rifles in the first place. One of these rifles in the hands of a
citizen could have stopped the Sandy Hook shooting in seconds.
Pay attention to the word games
(which are really mind games)
As you observe the highly
manipulated gun control argument, pay special attention to the word games you’re
being subjected to:
An AR-15 in the hands of a citizen is an “assault
rifle.”
But an AR-15 in the hands of a DHS agent is a “Personal Defense
Weapon.”
A full-auto-capable rifle in the hands of a citizen is called a
“machine gun.”
A full-auto-capable rifle in the hands of a DHS agent is
called a “select-fire rifle.”
According to the media, all government agents
with assault rifles are presumed innocent and
assumed to be stopping crime.
But all private citizens with assault rifles
are presumed
guilty and assumed to be causing crime.
When one citizen goes
crazy and murders a bunch of people, the call goes out for ALL citizens to be
stripped of their firearms.
But when one government
agent goes crazy and murders a bunch of people, the calls goes
out for MORE guns to be placed in the hands of MORE government
agents!
Thank you,
DHS, for admitting the truth
In summary, it looks like we
actually need to thank the DHS for admitting the truth that Obama
won’t: AR-15s are
personal defense weapons, suitable for use in close quarters,
especially when equipped with 30-round magazines.
That’s why I own one, and
it’s why DHS wants thousands more (but theirs are full-auto, while mine is only
semi-auto).
As a general rule, all freedom-loving Americans should want the
same firepower their domestic government possesses. That’s the whole point
behind the Second Amendment, and it represents the distribution of
power in a free society.
But instead of firepower being equal
in America today, DHS is using our taxpayer dollars to purchase thousands of
full-auto weapons for their own agents. This is apparently being done under ICE
(Immigration and Customs Enforcement).
This brings up the question for
another entire article, and here’s the question: Why does immigration need 7,000
full-auto assault rifles? Is there a friggin’ Mexican invasion
planned that nobody told me about? Is ICE going to invade Mexico and start a
shooting war with the Mexican drug cartels?
Seriously: Why does ICE need
7,000 full-auto assault rifles? And why does DHS need 1.6 billion rounds of
ammo?
