While the United States government contemplates banning the sales of semi-automatic rifles for civilians, it has recently put in a bid for 7,000 fully automatic weapons (like the one used by US NORTHCOM soldier pictured left) to be distributed to various agencies within the Department of Homeland Security, the umbrella organization which oversees FEMA. In the wake of the DHS purchase of 1.6 billion rounds of ammo and the decade of military grade hardware going to local police forces, along with drones increasingly arriving on the scene, it seems clear that the Feral Government is preparing, in the words of Senator Lindsey Graham, to make "the world the battlefield, including the homeland."  Why, you might ask?  Social unrest in the face of economic instability, drought, food shortages, and environmental meltdown.  It won't matter if you "aren't doing anything wrong" or "have nothing to hide."  Think widespread hurricane Katrina/Sandy level incompetence in the face of a corporate government created national catastrophe, where millions of people don't have access to food.  Hopefully before then you will have realized what the military zombie drills are all about.  Hopefully you will have prepared.
 
Here's some sample text from the bid:


1.0 SCOPE
