• Congressman: “It’s My Duty” To Get To The Bottom Of Massive DHS Ammo Buys! 
  by Steve Watson, www.Infowars.com 
  “Our law enforcement can’t seem to buy their own ammunition”
  The Californian Congressman heading up a group of  Representatives who have demanded an explanation for massive ammunition  purchases by the government explained yesterday that he feels duty bound to  investigate the matter in a time when many Americans do not trust their  government.
  –
  Rep. Doug LaMalfa (CA), stated in a Fox News  interview that he and fourteen other Congressman wrote to the Department of  Homeland Security for answers because Americans deserve an explanation for what  is a highly unusual situation.
  –
  “There is a big mistrust by many many people of  their government these days and so when they ask me to check in on this, I think  it is my duty as an elected official, as a representative, to get to the bottom.”  LaMalfa told host Megyn Kelly.
  –
  “These are just questions that we think are  appropriate, need to be asked, and they come from the people across the  country.” he added.
  –
  LaMalfa explained that the DHS’s explanation so  far in its purchase of close to 2 billion hollow point bullets has not been acceptable,  describing it as “a heck of a lot of rounds of ammunition and for some very  dubious-sounding reasons.”
  –
  “…people are wondering why, for example, is the  Social Security Administration getting almost 200,000 rounds of hollow point  ammunition.” LaMalfa said. “What is it about our social security checks and  administration that we have guys toting hollow point around with them?”
  –
  “If it’s for target practice, there is an awful  lot of hollow point going out to these various agencies, that are not  appropriate for target practice because they are much more costly rounds.” The  Congressman noted.
  –
  “So it’s one thing to have the right people go out  and do the practice that they need to do, but I think this is certainly worthy  of a series of questions because a lot of people want to know.” he added.
  –
  “In this time of sequester where everything is a  disaster, do they really have that kind of money to be spending on this amount  of ammunition? Especially at a time when they are releasing many hardened  criminals across the country.” LaMalfa also noted, referring to the recently  uncovered strategy to release hundreds of prisoners in order to meet budget  cuts.
  –
  The Congressman also pointed to the fact that the  ammo buys are contributing to nationwide shortages.
  –
  “… all told it’s about 2 billion rounds out  there and yes, local law enforcement is having a hard time. They are having to  buy from people they know that might have a stash, or other means that really  isn’t very professional.” The Congressman said.
  –
  “It seems unusual and I think it is sending a  wrong message to the people of this nation when they can’t buy their own  ammunition. Our law enforcement can’t seem to buy their own ammunition.” he  urged.
