Yep, the Department of Homeland Security (hereafter referred to as DHS) has purchased 1.6billion rounds of ammunition (they say they got a deal on pricing) and 2700 tanks. There is supposedly a youtube video of one of the DHS officers giving a tour of one of the tanks. KFYI, local talk radio station, has the link posted on their website. The tracks of the tanks have been removed and replaced with bulletproof tires.
Is the DHS becoming a national police force? I always thought that a national police force would be illegal, but I wouldn't swear to that being true. Anybody know for sure and can point it out in the Constitution?
I guess I must be a little uninformed regarding what the DHS is for. I thought they were organized to protect the Homeland from enemies. Does the purchasing of 1.6 billion rounds of ammo and the acquisition of 2700 tanks indicate they expect an invasion from somewhere or are they getting ready to put down protests? Either one of those is enough to put a bit of a fright in me.
What's your thoughts?
