Federal officials when the people raise up to hang them.
Hmmmm this is odd. I want one
I thought this was just a joke. Guess they really did place an order for these last year.

LOL, more contract smoking-gun that's not a smoking-gun contract ignorance. The article in the OP even trots out the long debunked "DHS bought 1.6 Billion rounds of ammo" line again.
DHS has not purchased 2,700 MRAPs and I challenge anyone to provide proof that they have.

I wish SOMEBODY would devote an entire thread to Alex Jones' math. Nobody would believe it, but SOMEBODY should do it anyway.
If you follow the source of the OP back through several links you will find that no one ever says that DHS is acquiring 2700 MRAPs.
So the marines are purchasing 2717 and DHS might be taking possession of one or two for use along the border and it gets reported on prison planet that DHS bought 2717.
Twist the facts a little, put it out there for everyone to jump to the conclusion they want, and gen up the fear and hysteria.
Get your survival seeds and gold while they will still sell it you.

You Alex Jones haters realize that it wasn't Alex Jones who started this story, right? It's from a Gateway Pundit blog from a few days ago. Prison Planet ran the story the same time Drudge did (yesterday).
It's good to see that Alex Jones isn't the only one to be loose with the facts.
