If I am wrong, then explain to me how Obama's civilian national security force could be just as powerful and just as strong as the military, as he stated, without being armed with military type weapons?
EDIT: He mentions the following agencies as ones he wants to create or expand:
AmeriCorps
Energy Corps
Foreign Service
Peace Corps
and mentions hiring vets to help other vets get jobs and for support of vets' family.
Which of those agencies do you suppose he's going to arm to the teeth?

An article debunking the ammo scare from, of all people, the NRA:
You may recently have seen some in the Internet rumor mill feverishly repeating the obvious truth above, in an effort to stir up fear about recent acquisitions of ammunition by the Department of Homeland Security and a number of smaller agencies. The mildest writers have questioned why ...[text shortened]... all so that we can defend ourselves from government tyranny would laugh at such a foolish claim.
Originally posted by RJHindsThe NRA disagrees with you. And they have a point: it's probably best to practice with the ammo you might actually have to use in the field.

Originally posted by RJHindsHowever, if Iran, North Korea, or some other nation with the desire and capability makes an EMP attack on the USA, we would be unable to hold elections and Obama could declare martial law and postpone the elections. We know Iran has the desire and Obama is now allowing the time and money for Iran to gain the capability with this so-called great deal. A great deal for Iran.
I hope he doesn't try it.

Originally posted by no1marauderGive a reference from the NRA that they agree that the government should waste a lot of money in target practice with expensive ammo instead of less expensive ammo. I know that the NRA are against banning any type of ammo, because they believe that will lead to banning more and more guns.
