So, why do they need 133 years of ammo in a five year period?


13.3 years at most.

First, because these offices, among others, have been moved from other
agencies to DHS over the past few years:

U.S. Secret Service
U.S. Customs Service
U.S. Coast Guard
Transportation Security Administration
Strategic National Stockpile
Office for Domestic Preparedness
Nuclear Incident Response Team
National Infrastructure Protection Center
National Domestic Preparedness Office
National Biological Warfare
Defense Analysis Center
Immigration and Naturalization Service
Federal Protective Service
Federal Law Enforcement Training Center
Federal Emergency Management Agency
Domestic Emergency Support Teams
CBRN Countermeasures Programs

Second, because many thousands of local police departments are now
training at DHS centers, including firearms training and ranges.

What's a few zeros among friends?
1.6 bil is the same as 1,600 mil. Divided by 120 mil does work out to 13
years. Ah, well.

Perhaps they just like the noise.

Well, you said it yourself... you said that you shot, what was it? 300
-some rounds in one afternoon?

Why do you begrudge your homeland security people having an afternoon
at the range once in a while :-)

This, plus the fact that Obummer needs to greatly expand DHS and its
related departments since that is one of the few options he has left to
try to prop up the failing employment numbers now that the seasonal
hiring bubble has burst and quantitative easing is having less and less
smoke and mirrors effect with each passing month of it.

I think the libby loos are finally grokking that their reign is coming
to an end and will be attempting to use the Homeland Security as their
SS to keep the unwashed from getting too uppity.

We just need another good crisis. Maybe a bombing in a crowded town or
something. Yeah, that would be good.
