Sarah Palin: Feds Are Stockpiling Bullets For Us
Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin took to Facebook on Tuesday and put her two cents worth in on why she believes the Federal government is acquiring so much ammunition. Her remarks, seemingly to clarify her earlier tweet, about the current economic situation in the United States and the massive debt we have hanging over us concluded by stating, “We’re going to default eventually and that’s why the feds are stockpiling bullets in case of civil unrest.”
Palin told those in Washington to “Cut the Drama. Do Your Job.”
She then went on to expound what the vast majority of Americans think. She wrote, “Americans are sick and tired of yet another ginned-up crisis. D.C. needs to grow up, get to work, and live within its means. The real economic Armageddon looming before us is our runaway debt, not the sequester, which the President advocated for and signed into law and is now running around denouncing because he never had any genuine intention of reining in his reckless spending.”
Palin also reminded her followers that the sequestration was the result of the long debt ceiling standoff in the summer of 2011. While she said it was not an ideal outcome for anyone, she attempted to claim that it at least included “real deficit reduction of about $110 billion per year for 10 years.” Actually the number is much less than that and when spread out over ten years and over various Federal programs and agencies, the effects would hardly be noticed.
The former GOP vice presidential candidate said that American families had already been hit with more tax increases because of Obama’s policies and bills he has signed into law, though she rightly points out that Obama calls taxes “revenues.” We wouldn’t expect anything less from a man that calls a “tax” a “penalty.”
“The American public doesn’t want tax increases; we want government to rein in its overspending,” Palin declared.
“If we can’t stomach modest cuts that would lower federal spending by a mere 0.3% per year out of a current federal budget of $3.6 trillion, then we might as well signal to the whole world that we have no serious intention of dealing with our debt problem,” she added. “If we are going to wet our proverbial pants over 0.3% in annual spending cuts when we’re running up trillion dollar annual deficits, then we’re done. Put a fork in us. We’re finished.”
Palin concluded her comments by stating:
“We’re going to default eventually
and that’s why the feds are stockpiling bullets in case of civil unrest.”
This is not from a conspiracy
theorist people. This comes from a former State governor and vice presidential
nominee.
However, she did not leave her comments with a sense of hopelessness, but instead encouraged the U.S. to put it’s “fiscal house in order,” to “stop the hysterics, tighten our belts, and take our medicine.”
Previously I wrote about how DHS had continued their stockpile of ammunition solicitations, even while citizens are attempting to acquire ammunition during scarcity in the market.
Recently DHS put in a solicitation for 7,000 “personal defense weapons” that shoot 5.56 NATO ammunition that have “fire select” capability along with high capacity 30 round magazines.
Back in December DHS solicited for 250 million rounds of .40 caliber ammunition. In September, DHS solicited for nearly 200 million rounds of sniper ammunition. In August 750 million rounds of high power ammunition were also solicited and in March DHS solicited 450 million rounds of hollow point bullets.
All of that is true, but to do that our representatives must be held accountable to their oath and that oath is to limited powers of spending. It would also require the people to understand those limitations and start calling their representatives to such limitations and voting out those that do not abide by them. For many, they are more concerned whether their team is in power rather than whether or not that team will obey the law of the land. We can no longer afford to think like that and must demand more from our leaders than mere rhetoric and we must look out for ourselves and our communities, should the feds decide they want to take up arms against the citizens of our country.

Although she may not be the "brightest bulb in the bunch", she may have this point right. This is an artificial, engineered crisis.
this makes no sense to me.
All these articles about the government purchasing bullets and such, and her statement about them stockpiling if for 'us'.
With the troops back from some wars, there's got to be warehouses full of these things.
Also, people forget that it is American Citizens that are harming American Citizens, and so they are grouping everyone into the same bucket as if someone is going to come take another's grandma because she's an American Citizen.
American citizens beat Occupy participants in the public while they exercised their right to free speech and freedom of assembly.
American citizens will shoot someone who is driving off from a traffic stop because they drove off rather than accepted the ticket, and claim their life was in danger because they were holding onto the door knob trying to stop the vehicle from moving so they shot the occupant of the vehicle to get the vehicle to stop.
There's so much going on. Wall Street AND Main Street robbed the people. Wall Street and main street are self serving. Those controlling it are not even called terrorists and will want to kill the rest of us through starvation and homelessness and exposure to bad food which affects our immune system and make us die of diseases we wouldn't catch if we had good food, and a clean place to live.
I was telling someone the other day that in the Income tax code, Title 26, it stated when wages are paid. It specifically said wages are paid when they are actually and constructively paid. I'll paraphrase the rest, but it was stating when the employee is paid such that they can draw upon those wages at any time for any purpose without restrictions or limitations.
Now when someone comes and garnishes wages, then you aren't actually and constructively paid those wages, because it was taken before you saw it. So you received a reduction in wages for that time period. Yet Main Street will be quick to give you a W-2 showing you received all of it for that year.
Like One who says they are awake and the rest of the world is asleep, you go and file your taxes as if that document was true correct and complete and then you carry the burden of the money you never touched. To keep the fraud going, the company that garnished your wages acts like you and it are in friendly transaction so they will file a tax form indicating you gave them the wages but you didn't your company did. They will tell the IRS you owe the taxes on it, but you never touched it so in all actuality your taxes should be lower because you were paid less.
But you have eyes and don't see.
We must stop using the term sheeple when referring to our brothers and sisters if we can.
We are all in this together and harm to one is harm to all no matter what part of KNOWING we are in right now, we are no better or higher than one who has not received the 'trigger' that would awake them to do and learn and be different.
Love to all, because it's all Love.
Stckpiling bullets against us.... lets cut to the chase.... it is not our government, but a bunch of infiltrated commie, socialist, nazi crooks. they need to be taken out immediately.... If there is any militia reading this quit listening to the ahos telling you to wait....go get the bastards. Waiting serves no purpose as it has gone WAY to far.
Ok...simple solution... who is doing all of this spending of the American peoples money against the wishes of the American People? Who refuses to listen to the American People and continues to protect fraud in high places at the expense of the peoples labor?
They are all complicit in the destruction of our country, from the fiat system they continued to worship and protect, to the poisoning of the American people by THEIR CORPORATION INSIDER TRADING to push their GMO, Vaccinations, Fluoride, Geo-Engineering (chemtrails)and allowing other known toxins such as aspartame, MSG, etc.
Why do we the American People continue to debate these issues with them when it is clear what their agenda is, how much more advantage do we give them over us before actiona is taken?
The simple solution to all these problems THEY ARE CREATING is to simply remove them from office. The people run the country, so why do we need their DICTATES destroying this country? If they are removed we will not sink, but we will thrive because that is what the American people do, we rise above all obstacles by the grace of Almighty God, and make lemon aide from damaged lemons, of course, without THEM, we won't need a license, permit, or "Mother may I" request.
Quite simple folks...if we want to fix our country we remove those that are destroying it, the people are not destroying it, WASHINGTON DC,and STATE CORPORATE GOVERNMENTS ARE. PEACEABLY BUT WITH FIRM RESOLVE, THEY MUST BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR ACTIONS..I'D SAY IT'S RECALL TIME..WHAT SAY YOU?
