Preparing for civil unrest? Ammunition to be delivered to 41 locations across U.S.

UPDATE: DHS Now Covering Up Ammo Purchases?
First it was the Department of Homeland Security, then it was the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and now the Social Security Administration is set to purchase 174,000 rounds of hollow point bullets that will be delivered to 41 locations across the country.​


A solicitation posted by the SSA on the FedBizOpps website asks for contractors to supply 174,000 rounds of “.357 Sig 125 grain bonded jacketed hollow point pistol ammunition.”​
An online ammunition retailer describes the bullets as suitable “for peak performance rivaling and sometimes surpassing handloads in many guns,” noting that the ammo is “a great personal defense bullet.”​
The synopsis to the solicitation adds that the ammunition is to be shipped to 41 locations within 60 days of purchase. A separate spreadsheet lists those locations, which include the Social Security headquarters in Baltimore, Maryland as well as major cities across the country including Los Angeles, Detroit, Oklahoma City, Dallas, Houston, Atlanta, Denver, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and Seattle.​
Hollow point bullets are designed to expand as they enter the body, causing maximum damage by tearing apart internal organs.​
It’s not outlandish to suggest that the Social Security Administration is purchasing the bullets as part of preparations for civil unrest. Social security welfare is estimated to keep around 40 per cent of senior citizens out of poverty. Should the tap run dry in the aftermath of an economic collapse which the Federal Reserve has already told top banks to prepare for, domestic disorder could ensue if people are refused their benefits.​
Indeed, earlier this year the Department of Homeland Security ran a drill called Operation Shield which included turning the entrance of a Florida Social Security office into a checkpoint manned by Federal Protective Service officers armed with semiautomatic rifles.​
“With their blue and white SUVs circled around the Main Street office, at least one official was posted on the door with a semiautomatic rifle, randomly checking identifications. And other officers, some with K-9s, sifted through the building,” reported the Daily Commercial.​
A rash of solicitations by federal agencies for hollow point bullets in recent months has stoked fears that the government is preparing for civil unrest caused by a financial collapse on a scale similar or even larger to scenes already witnessed in Europe over the last two years.​
As we reported yesterday, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has put out a contract for 46,000 rounds of hollow point bullets along with 500 paper targets.​
Despite initially asking the bullets to be delivered to the National Weather Service, NOAA claimed this was a “clerical error” and insisted the ammunition was being sent to the Fisheries Office of Law Enforcement. Why powerful hollow point bullets that are designed to tear apart internal organs are needed for practice shooting at paper targets has not been explained.Back in March, Homeland Security purchased 450 million rounds of .40-caliber hollow point bullets that are designed to expand upon entry and cause maximum organ damage, prompting questions as to why the DHS needed such a large amount of powerful bullets merely for training purposes.This was followed by another DHS solicitation asking for a further 750 million rounds of assorted bullets, including 357 mag rounds that are able to penetrate walls.
The DHS recently put out an order for riot gear in preparation for the upcoming DNC, RNC and presidential inauguration. The U.S. Army is also busy buying similar equipment.​
The DHS also recently purchased a number of bullet-proof checkpoint booths that include ‘stop and go’ lights.​

The thing is that they bought at CostCo, and we all know you have to buy in bulk when you shop there.

I don't know why ssa would need them, but it is a stretch to say its for civil unrest.

Just because it hasn't been mentioned what they are for, doesn't mean it's for civil unrest.

In these days of tight budgets, think of how much the SSA could save if it checked shelf dates and only bought ammo that was being retired. cn

Yes, because we all know it is going directly to the military branch of the SSA...

Oh wait.. the SSA doesnt have a military branch. And the SSA is not concerned with foreign wars.

WHAT THE FUCK ELSE CAN IT BE FOR???

Some people will refuse to see the jack boot until it kicks them in the face...

Yeah, that's it, it is a plan to quell the "uprising" when Obama is legitimately deposed and all of his plans to take over the country are reduced to rubble.


Riiiigh, we refuse to see the jack boots.

He doesnt trust the military so he needs civilian soldiers to resist the upcoming election.

He will declare martial law and suspend the election if he thinks it wont go his way. And that will require force.

With the anti-government sentiment that's been growing in the country it's not that surprising. I wouldn't be surprised if they needed them one day.

I don't know and neither do you. But that apparently doesn't stop you from believing it is for a nefarious reason.

BTW, your attitude was not necessary. I was polite and not sarcastic at all.

The SSA is a federal government institution. What possible reason could they have for all that ammo? Target practice?

Our government is wasting money like never before and doing things that are frightening and you are just blase about it... It pisses me off...

If not for civil unrest, got any other ideas?
It's the new austerity policy. A bullet saves so very much compared to 20+ years of monthly checks. I just wonder which of those 174000 will be mine after the "restructuring". Oh and they better make house calls. cn
