And you thought I was the only conspiracy nut worried about this. As I have been following for months now (see earlier posts under Bullet Buys), the Department of Homeland Security has for months now been buying a CRAP TON of bullets, which they claim is for training purposes. The bullets they are buying are called Hollow Points, and for those of you in the know, those are not for target practice, unless the target is turning your head into a 1985 Gallagher routine (Previous joke requires a time machine). This story was all over the FFP, and Alex Jones, as usual, was on top of it from the get go. As I saw it, just a regular 70’s obsessed dude trying to figure out life, I was reading about this and yet NO ONE on any traditional news source was talking about this. I found it very disturbing, and it made my head go to strange paranoid places I dare not travel.
Then I see this article and it made me scream Hallelujah. Seriously I did, ask my neighbors.  Congressman Lance, A Republician from New Jersey, is asking the Congressional Oversight Committee to look into this purchase, and have Secretary Napolitano give answers. Thank God someone is saying something. You should read the Infowars article because there is lots of crazy stuff. It made me realize this:
When Bush and Cheney were in power, and they were running roughshod all over the constitution with the Patriot Act, Gitmo, and Iraq, it was the Demcrats what called them out on their shiz. Now that Obama is in power, with his NDAA, Drones killing American citizens, and prison purchases, it’s the Republicans doing the barking.
The question I get asked most is “Where are you going with this”? Well my point is thus: You can’t get caught up in the political game. That’s what it is, a game. They aren’t working for you, and they only speak up when it is in their best political interest. Have a point of view, have conviction in your beliefs, and defend them, just don’t trust those in power to do the right thing. Yesterday’s friends are tomorrow’s enemies.
