The Department of Homeland Security is set to purchase a further 21.6 million rounds of ammunition to add to the 1.6 billion bullets it has already obtained over the course of the last 10 months alone, figures which have stoked concerns that the federal agency is preparing for civil unrest.

Two sides to every story. 

Here is the Alex Jones possible reason why they need the bullets.

Now here is Fox News reasoning to why they need so much ammo.

21.6 million on top of the 1.6 billion that they have already got in just 10 months seems scary to me.

Your thoughts?

I would be interested to know how many federal LEO there is total, lets say there is 100,000, that's 16000 rounds per LEO, seems high to me, with that being said, isn't the white box ammo federal surplus they put back into the market

To provide some perspective, experts estimate that at the peak of the Iraq war American troops were firing around 5.5 million rounds per month. At that rate, the [Department of Homeland Security] is armed now for a 24-year Iraq war. A 24-year Iraq war!
