I don't make this **** up, even if you don't like the way I present it. You ignorant little ****, do you even read what you post before you post it and then claim "facts" not in play? From your article: Local law enforcement face ammo shortage as gun owners, DHS stock up Published March 23, 2013 | FoxNews.com Local law enforcement agencies across the country are facing an ammo shortage, as gun owners concerned about new laws at the federal and state level stock up on firearms and bullets. At the same time, the Department of Homeland Security has said it *wants* to buy more than 1.6 billion rounds of ammunition in the next four or five years -- which could put further strain on the supply. The shortage, coupled with an increase in prices, comes as many gun owners head to the stores in anticipation of new gun control laws. States like Colorado and New York have already approved such legislation, while Democrats move toward bringing a bill to the Senate floor. At the moment, the congressional bill does not include an assault-weapons ban, but a ban is expected to be floated as an amendment. Still, what one official described as "panic-buying" set in, as lawmakers rallied to draft new legislation in the wake of a series of tragic mass shootings last year, from Aurora, Colo., to Oak Creek, Wis., to Newtown, Conn. ------ The shortage is being cause by "panic buying" by gun nuts, not by mass purchases of ammo by a federal agency. There are dozens and dozens of calibers used in firearms and within those categories of dozens of different varieties. DHS is only intending to buy ammo in a couple of these categories, and has no use for ammo in most of the calibers available. Ammo *is* in short supply, an artificial situation caused by gun owners and ammo manufactuers, the former because they are just plain stupid sheeples and the latter because they see a way to make extra bucks. Who is a stupid sheeple? Your buddy Herring, for one, who apparently drives over to Wal-Mart every morning to see if he can buy five more boxes of ammo. If the DHS wants to buy a boatload of ammo over the next five years, it will contract directly with the manufacturers, and the manufacturers who get the contracts will ramp up production of the calibers the agency wants. There is no shortage of ammo manufacturers willing to suck on the government's teat for five years. |

Not all, but some people I talk to or meet when I go to the range talk the same talk and some are lawyers or other educated professionals. There are a few obvious "preppers" here and there, but not many. Most of the conversations center on types of firearms, experiences with them, likes and dislikes, etc., but I am still surprised at the number of people who think the government is plotting to take away their right to own a gun. |

Many Americans, I believe, are just too lazy and too disinterested to follow current events carefully. They "hear" or "see" there's an ammo shortage, they see crazies on TV blaming the government, and they believe it. |

We went through all that when a previous Liberal Gov't brought in long arm registration a number of years ago. We already had fairly restrictive handgun controls. People pointed to Australia.. claimed that the gov't was going to first force us to register and then take our firearms. I registered and I still have my 20 ga shotgun and my 22 cal semi-auto rifle with 6x scope. Our current Conservative govt just abolished the firearm registry last year. Handguns are still heavily restricted, of course. |
