SO NOW WE’RE ALLOWING THE USDA TO WEAPONIZE???

Riddle me this…Why is it that the United States Department of Agriculture would need to purchase .40 caliber submachine guns, and with 30 round magazines, no less? Because on May 7th there was a solicitation made by the U.S. Department of Agriculture seeking "the commercial acquisition of submachine guns [in] .40 Cal. S&W." I’d be very curious to know what exactly these folks might be expecting to be called upon to do.

According to the solicitation, the Dept. of Agriculture wants the guns to have an "ambidextrous safety, semiautomatic or 2 round [bursts] trigger group, Tritium night sights front and rear, rails for attachment of flashlight (front under fore group) and scope (top rear), stock collapsible or folding," and a "30 rd. capacity" magazine. Why would we EVER need to weaponize our Dept. of Agriculture? Does that make sense? To anybody?

AND, they also want the submachine guns to have a "sling," be "lightweight," and have an "oversized trigger guard for gloved operation." The solicitation directs "all responsible and/or interested sources...[to] submit their company name, point of contact, and telephone." Companies that submit information in a "timely" fashion "shall be considered by the agency for contact to determine weapon suitability." Weapon suitability??

What the Hell is going on here? It seems that with each passing day I am able to recognize a little less of my country. And to say that I have virtually no trust in the sleazy thug who now sits in the Oval Office would be an understatement. Now I’m no fan of conspiracy theories, but I gotta say, that when something like this happens all kinds of things can start running through my head. And what’s the rationale for something like this anyway?

And at what point are the American people going to finally say enough of this rabid arming of these government agencies that have absolutely no business possessing weapons of ANY kind! This is another perfect example of the madness that has been steadily underway in this country ever since that fateful day back in January of 2009. We’re going to have to come to our senses before it’s too late, if it’s not too late already! WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!!
