Thank you Sledge for the followup article.

Two points:

1) The article was obviously leaning to one side. However even once you filter out the jive it is scary. So you better...
2) ...keep up doing what you can to prepare. I hate to admit this however I am learning daily that we can't stop the process we
    are going through with the exception of writing letters and voting. You do have the ability though (at least now) to prep.

Remember, that most of us pay out huge amounts of $$$ for house and car insurance yearly. Concider prepping as insurance
against the possibility of the unthinkable.

I've been in Law enforcement for 10 years and I've worked for the DHS for 3 years. This is just my thoughts on this. At the local LEO level we qualify ( not training) with our duty ammo with duty weapon twice a year and fire about 100 rounds. Training we use Sim rounds or training ammo with the same grain weight as our duty ammo. also take in to account that not everyone at DHS carry .40 S&W the F.A.M.S. carry .357 Sig's ICE and the Border Patrol and some other uniformed departments carry .40 S&W . ICE also has the H&K UMP in 40. so I think 450 million is allot.

You guys are funny.  It reminds me of the time at a packinghouse.  There were a lot of Mexicans working there whom we had I-9's in their files with the documentation showing they could work in the U.S.

Well the county process server came in wearing a uniform looking for some to serve papers on.  I came out of the office and half the employees were gone.  I was like what happened, where is everyone?  I guess they thought he was Ice and they were hauling ass out of every door and window in the place.  LOL.

We were like, I think we need to check these peoples documentation again.  LOL!

I should clarify I worked for DHS for 3 years before I quit in such a manner that more than likely has me on the no fly list.
