A Congressman is asking about the 1.6 Billion rounds
« on: March 19, 2013, 08:45:05 PM »
of ammo that the DHS is buying, and the couple thousand armored vehicles and armored road block booths.


In July of 2008 candidate Obama claimed that the US needed a "Civilian Security Defense Force" that was "as strong, as powerful and well funded" as our military:


Is he creating his own private army?
Will he need it to enforce the "National Defense Resources Preparedness"  Executive Order?

I think you just answered your own question. An interesting thing to note is that the rounds purchased are all hollow point or ballistic tip cartridges, all illegal under the "Geneva Convention."

Those rounds are not designed to shoot foreign invaders, they are designed to what?

Shame on you Admin, ''Dan'' for letting this type of link being displayed on this forum. When I joined I was fighting for our 2nd Amen rights of our country, but this display of Human Rights and life taken are not what I choose to be a part of!! I want you to remove my affiliation of membership from this site, as it seems the type of evil trash allow to be displayed here is too evil for me if anyone has been in war knows this is the crap of PTSD, and you have allowed it to remain on this forum for over 12 hrs. I have seen many who have visited this particular thread as well and yet no one has spoken, You all better think what your becoming a part of as for me I Will Not Be A Part of It. Period!!!!

Also remove my donations to this forum it wasn't much but I will not contribute to an Extreme human rights video of Death. I will not be missed by any here but I do ask all is this what you want from a Pro Gun Forum? If you have any questions on stopping my donations call me you have my phone #.... I will choose to stand as a Pro 2nd citizen and find another method to do that.

You're gave Dan only 34 minutes to investigate and act on a posting?  Have YOU ever been gone from this forum for more than 34 minutes?    A wise sage wrote "The judgement you render shall be rendered into you".

So Mr. Mora , do you want just an account delete, or a block and ban?

For the rest of the forum members that haven't quit today, there is a button to click if you find a post objectionable, that reports the post to the admin so it can be dealt with.

Or I guess you can just leave it , and blame the admin for not reading all the posts at 3 am

Dan,

I, for one, appreciate the (thankless)job you're doing as admin.

Thanks for your hard work Dan VOLUNTARILY maintaining this site on YOUR time.....

Hear!  Hear!

I  was an admin on  the Kubuntuforums.net for several years.  It is NOT an easy task, especially when encountering the clash of egos, or the person who is never wrong, or the perpetual victim.   

My hat's off to Dan for the fine work he is doing ... WITHOUT PAY!

People do all sorts of things... I can't imagine why someone would quit in rage because of something that someone posted. I definitely don't want to have the admins working full time on this forum to regulate our conversations. I prefer light handed admin touch with the risk that someone is going to post something offensive.

Nor should  he (or she if she volunteers).

However, what is "offensive" to one person may not be to another.  However, as the 1st Amendment teaches, ALL should have the right to self-expression without censorship by others.  Those expressing themselves have an obligation to keep in mind that younger minds may be reading and control their language accordingly.  And, that ridicule and ad hominem attacks are not valid replacements for a sound argument or rebuttal.   Voltaire is reputed to have said "I may disagree with what you say but I will defend to my death your right to say it."
