How people read that and come to the conclusion that the MRAPs are for DHS I have no idea.

pass that along.

The MARINE CORPS is buying 2700 (reply)

mcassill — Sat, 27 Apr 2013 01:42:00 +0000

which gets reported as a purchase by DHS by people either lacking in reading comprehension skills or flat-out lying.

Thank You (reply)

So which one is Alex Jones? (reply)

It was reported that they got 2700 MRAPs. 2700. I know (reply)

you can't believe everything you read but, just like the contract for 1.6 billion (+) rounds over 10 years the acquisition wasn't fully explained and "Big Sis" wouldn't answer questions about them. It would have been a simple thing to say, "we only have 16, at major airports." Then again, you have to know something about "Big Sis". She can be briefed in the morning and forget the whole thing by the afternoon.

I don't know what the MTOE might authorize, but I figure 2700 MRAPs should do 5 or 6 Army divisions...

So which one is Alex Jones? (reply)

You Know it would have certainly been easier (reply)

for homeland security to show this to the public and to the senate committees. Instead of evading all the questions...Whoever there PR folks are need to be fired.

Alex and a number of others make a very good living (reply)

...peddling pure bullshit to draw attention to themselves. DHS doesn't have "six division's worth" of APCs, they have 16.

The "1.6 billion rounds" thing is similarly bullshit, spread by people either making stuff up or not reading the actual RFQ as the folks at Military Times did.

dispenses so much bad/false information, I think he is a provocateur of the LEFT.

I guess I need to look up Alex Jones but... (reply)

Hobie — Thu, 25 Apr 2013 12:54:06 +0000

I think that opposing the DHS alternate military is a good thing. I just wish they'd talk about the 6 divisions worth of APCs.

He's peddled made-up BS enough times... (reply)

mcassill — Thu, 25 Apr 2013 10:32:12 +0000

That is the only proper way to treat his stuff.

Alex Jones is in this video, so I'm skeptical about it. I (reply)
