   Why would the National Weather Service need to purchase large quantities    
   of powerful ammo? That’s the question many are asking after the federal    
   agency followed in the footsteps of the Department of Homeland Security    
   in putting out a solicitation for 46,000 rounds of hollow point bullets.   
      
   A solicitation which appears on the FedBizOpps website asks for 16,000    
   rounds of .40 S&W jacketed hollow point (JHP) bullets, noted for their    
   strength, to be delivered to locations in Ellsworth, Maine, and New    
   Bedford, Mass.   
      
   A further 6,000 rounds of S&W JHP will be sent to Wall, New Jersey, with    
   another 24,000 rounds of the same bullets heading to the weather station    
   in St. Petersburg, Florida.   
      
   The solicitation also asks for 500 paper targets to be delivered to the    
   same locations in Maine, Massachusetts and New Jersey.   
      
   The National Weather Service is is one of six scientific agencies that    
   make up the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).   
      
   The solicitation requires a response by August 21.   
      
   The NWS is following its federal counterpart the DHS in securing large    
   quantities of ammo. Back in March,Homeland Security purchased 450    
   million rounds of .40-caliber hollow point bullets that are designed to    
   expand upon entry and cause maximum organ damage, prompting questions as    
   to why the DHS needed such a large amount of powerful bullets merely for    
   training purposes.   
      
   As the Business Insider notes, hollow point bullets have been “illegal    
   in international warfare since 1899.”   
      
   The DHS is also planning to purchase a further 750 million rounds of    
   different types of ammo in a separate solicitation that also expires on    
   August 20, including 357 mag rounds that are able to penetrate walls.   
      
   The DHS recently put out an order for riot gear in preparation for the    
   upcoming DNC, RNC and presidential inauguration. The U.S. Army is also    
   busy buying similar equipment.   
      
   The DHS also recently purchased a number of bullet-proof checkpoint    
   booths that include ‘stop and go’ lights.   
      
   The federal government is clearly gearing up for the likelihood of civil    
   unrest on a scale that could outstrip what we’ve already seen in    
   countries across Europe.   
      
   While the establishment demonizes the second amendment in light of    
   recent mass shootings and legislation is prepared to ban the sale of    
   large quantities of ammunition online, the federal government is    
   acquiring ammunition at levels necessary to fight a full scale domestic war.   
      
   UPDATE: The Washington Post now reports, via a statement from NOAA    
   spokesman Scott Smullen, that the original solicitation contained a    
   “clerical error” and that the “solicitation for ammunition and targets    
   for the NOAA Fisheries Office of Law Enforcement mistakenly identified    
   NOAA’s National Weather Service as the requesting office.” This still    
   doesn’t explain why hollow point bullets, designed to cause maximum    
   organ damage, are needed for shooting at paper targets. Was the delivery    
   of the bullets to the NWS a cover for them being transferred somewhere    
   else? It’s entirely possible given the sordid history of Fast and    
   Furious, a federal government program under which guns were sent    
   directly to Mexican drug cartels.
