Obama DHS Purchases 2,700 Light-Armored Tanks to Go With Their 1.6 Billion Bullet Stockpile

Posted by Jim Hoft on Sunday, March 3, 2013, 9:55 PM


This is getting a little creepy.

According to one estimate, since last year the Department of Homeland Security has stockpiled more than 1.6 billion bullets, mainly .40 caliber and 9mm.

DHS also purchased 2,700 Mine Resistant Armor Protected Vehicles (MRAP).


Modern Survival Blog reported:

The Department of Homeland Security (through the U.S. Army Forces Command) recently retrofitted 2,717 of these ‘Mine Resistant Protected’ vehicles for service on the streets of the United States.

Although I’ve seen and read several online blurbs about this vehicle of late, I decided to dig slightly deeper and discover more about the vehicle itself.

The new DHS sanctioned ‘Street Sweeper’ (my own slang due to the gun ports) is built by Navistar Defense (NavistarDefense.com), a division within the Navistar organization. Under the Navistar umbrella are several other companies including International Trucks, IC Bus (they make school buses), Monaco RV (recreational vehicles), WorkHorse (they make chassis), MaxxForce (diesel engines), and Navistar Financial (the money arm of the company).

DHS even released a video on their newly purchased MRAPs.
Via Pat Dollard:

The MRAP featured in this video is was in Albuquerque, New Mexico for Law Enforcement Day which was held at a local area Target Store. This MRAP is stationed in El Paso, Texas at The Homeland Security Investigations Office. MRAP is a Mine Resistant Armor Protected Vehicle.

One reader's response:

It's hard to not become a paranoid conspiracy theorist when you read news reports about the DHS buying thousands of these things and billions of rounds of ammo...

America is swiftly turning into a kind of Left-wing socialist totalitarian police state...

Drones overhead, all of your webernetz activity databased forever, the DHS and other government agencies morphing into domestic military forces, checkpoints everywhere you travel, the president worshipped, etc.

The founders are rolling in their graves..


.

Read this today. Only thing I can come up with is block them in
with trucks and a "liberal" slathering of foo gas under the mwrap
and pop them when they come out. Where are the blind spots
for the firing ports ?

Let's see....

1) Thermite from a bridge.
("Is it me or is it getting hot in here?")

2) Shoot the top with a 50. Mine resistant means strong bottom / weak top.

If this shit if for use against citizens, I wonder if the traitors realize that everything they love will be eliminated.

How is you can pretend to know what they love? As far as it every being used against citizens, just who else do you think it's for? When was the last time you herd of anyone using armored piercing ammo for target practice?

Are you fucking retarded? oh wait alzheimer's I really shouldn't on the old and demented.

Hopefully we'll get someone in office in three years that will retro-fit them with scoops and use them in places like Detroit and Walmart chimp-outs, then use the harvest to support the rest of the welfarians.

Most of these light armoured vehicles must be meant to be used as spare parts.

They were told to make these targets to

to combat hesitation when deadly force is required on subjects with atypical age, frailty or condition.”

I don't believe in this article, no source to back up such claim. Moreover, there isn't light armored tanks, but armored fighting vehicle (IFV). Retrofitting costs as much as the vehicle. Even DHS can't afford it.

Also, the upgrade of 2,717 vehicles may be true, but for the Navy...

CONTRACTS

NAVY

Pants on fire

Navistar lands $880 million defense contract
By FRANCINE KNOWLES Business Reporter fknowles@suntimes.com January 10, 2012 12:50PM

Lisle-based Navistar Defense LLC landed an $880 million order from the U.S. Marine Corps to upgrade more than 2,700 mine resistant ambush protected vehicles, the company announced Tuesday.

The Navistar International Corp. subsidiary will retrofit the MaxxPro vehicles with new rolling chassis to improve their off-road capability.

“As Defense budgets are being reduced, it is imperative that we continue to develop economical solutions that repurpose assets while also working to ensure warfighters have access to emerging technologies and capabilities,” Navistar Defense President Archie Massicotte said in a statement. “Our rolling chassis solution allows us to leverage our unique vehicle design and replace an older chassis with a new, highly mobile independent suspension chassis.”

Work will begin at the company’s West Point, Miss., assembly facility this month and is scheduled for completion in October 2013, the company said.

Navistar International’s subsidiaries manufacture commercial and military trucks, diesel engines, school and commercial buses and recreational vehicles.

How to recognize hoax on Fuckfrance ?


Always doubt TexanForever's contribution. He is known to receive and read hoax spams and blogs.

If Rebourne back it up, it means to be fishy.

If carolinegrace appears from nowhere, it means the article comes from some questionable blogs.

The Fate of FF is in Your Hands, Welcome to the new MOD Caz.

... Poor Caz, FF modship is getting to him. He's gone bonkers! ... I used to think Caz was pretty sharp, but it appears he's slipping.

If he'd even bothered to watch the vid in the article I referenced: www.youtube.com . . . he'd have seen, painted on the sides of the vehicle, "Homeland Security," not USMC. Also on the vehicle were the words, "Police" in many places, as was the word "Customs." ... Since when does the Customs Service require thousands of heavily armored vehicles? ... A few maybe, but thousands? Are the Zetas planting mines?

As the OD-suited "Policeman" pointed out in the vid, the windows are about 8-inches thick and will stop a .50 cal. The tires will withstand mine explosions.

This vid cannot be photoshopped or faked. ... The vehicle plainly is-what-it-is. ... and there will be thousands of them. ... My original question is WHY! ... Is Mexico planning to invade?

Perhaps Mr. Genius Mythbuster Caz can answer these questions for all of us?

I stand by my "Pants on fire" post. ... Now fuck off and let us take care of our internal problems.

Imbécile ! I quoted you a page from defense.gov (www.defense.gov . . .). This page (from 2012) is about the US Navy contract to refit 2,717 MRAP. The same MRAP you believed belong to the DHS.

This article you posted is an obvious hoax. It isn't because there may be some MRAP with DHS painting that DHS is purchasing 2,700 of theses.

For someone who once was sharp you now are a deliquescent old schnook.

Dear Monsieur Cazeilles,
- Never doubt Mr. TexanForever, he is sacrosanct. Don't fuck with him.

Ms Grace,

My answer was about the supposed DHS purchases of 2,700 IFV.

Regarding pregnant targets, I find this extremely disturbing. Please accept all my sympathies about this disgusting story.

However, never stand between TexanForever and I. You might get hurt. And you can be reassure if there is something in common between a Texan and a French it's they don't want to get a lady hurt
