'Why is Obama arming federal agencies with hollow-point bullets?'


Michael Savage shared disturbing news reports of federal agencies stocking up on hollow-point bullets, to the tune of hundreds of thousands of rounds.

He wondered why the Obama administration is so eager to help government employees stock up on ammunition, as well as why the average American isn’t up in arms over these revelations.

“Federal agencies are trying to tamp down speculation over their hollow-point ammo purchases,” Savage explained to listeners, adding:

Why does the Social Security Administration suddenly need 174,000 rounds of .357 hollow-point pistol ammo?

A message on the official blog for the Social Security inspector general says, “Our special agents need to be armed and trained appropriately.”

To do what? So that if senior citizens riot when their benefits are cut, they can always gun them down like in South Africa?

We’re hearing that the National Weather Service also bought hollow-point ammo. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration just purchased 46,000 rounds of such ammunition.

What sane citizenry on earth would not be alarmed when they read that a criminal organization like the Obama administration is arming every agency to the teeth with hollow-point ammunition?

Why would any government need hollow-point bullets in any case?

You don’t need them for target practice. When you shoot at a piece of paper you don’t need a bullet that expands inside a body and tears up organs.

Nobody has an answer. You’ll never get an answer from the Department of Homeland Security.

That sorority house is not in business to help you. They’re in business to keep you in line.

Hollow point bullets are very good at stopping people without harming innocent bystanders through piercing shots or ricochets.

The SSA has 295 agents across the country who have full law enforcement authority. They can execute warrants and make arrests.

The NOAA will be using their hollow point bullets for their 63 law enforcement agents. The bulk of their 46000 rounds will go toward training purposes. And yes, you want to use the same ammunition to familiarize yourself with it.

And police officers across the US have been using hollow point bullets for a while now.

Mr. Savage is barking at shadows.

to the best of my knowledge police have been stocking hollow-point bullets for decades.

Savage is a tool for sorting out the gullible and emotionally retarded.*

Who is actually unthinking enough to think that the President is directly involved in such minutia anyway?

Paranoid gun-nuts like McVeigh.
