Obama Wants To Buy 7,000 Assault Rifles For Personal Defense

Feinstein says that the only purpose for semi-automatic rifles is to kill school children, so why is the White House buying 7,000 for “personal defense?”

The Department of Homeland Security is seeking to acquire 7,000 5.56x45mm NATO “personal defense weapons” (PDW) — also known as “assault weapons” when owned by civilians. The solicitation, originally posted on June 7, 2012, comes to light as the Obama administration is calling for a ban on semi-automatic rifles and high capacity magazines.

Citing a General Service Administration (GSA) request for proposal (RFP), Steve McGough of RadioViceOnline.com reports that DHS is asking for the 7,000 “select-fire” firearms because they are “suitable for personal defense use in close quarters.” The term select-fire means the weapon can be both semi-automatic and automatic. Civilians are prohibited from obtaining these kinds of weapons.

  1. I think what they meant was that only responsible people can have them. Not US citizens in general.

    Who was it that bought 1.5 trillion rounds of some spiffy ammunnition last year??

    I’m guessing DHS are arming for war.
    That is more rifles than the French have in Mali fighting a deadly war.

    • Justa Joe says:

      Is that French war in Mali an illegal war or a legal war?
      I’m going to presume legal since they’re French and not American.

    AR-15 wielded by a government agent – Personal Defense Weapon
    AR-15 wielded by a civilian – Assault Weapon

    Just want to make sure I have my Leftist terminology correct.

    • Sounds like they are planning Waco and Ruby Ridge X 1000

    • Andy OZ says:

      Looks to me just like when the confederates surrendered to the union in Clint Eastwoods movie – The outlaw Josey Wales. Any civilian with a “Assault Weapon” is a domestic terrorist.

      They are probably about to announce “Hand your guns in or the DHS is coming for you. And line up straight when you’re doing it so we can keep you covered with our Personal Defence Weapons”.

  5. Chewer says:

    In one of those rabid speeches, he did mention the need for a sizeable domestic force that can rival the Army…

    Peace Under Attack

    When he launched a white dove – a traditional symbol of peace – into the air in St Peter’s Square, Pope Benedict XVI was probably not expecting that the effect would be immediate. And certainly he would not have expected the effect to be conflict.

    But that is exactly what happened in the Vatican square yesterday afternoon, as an angry seagull attacked the bird as the Pope looked on.

    Bad Sign

    • Heh-heh…

      I see, a Bad Moon risin’,
      I see, trouble on the way…
      (Don’t go out tonight… there’s a Bad Moon on the rise.)

      Then there is the old ballad…

      A young cowboy named Billy Joe (Barry O) grew restless on the farm,
      A young boy filled with wanderlust, who really meant no harm…
      …Don’t take your guns to town, boy,
      Leave your guns at home, Bill…Don’t take your guns to town.

      Don’t mess with people’s guns, Mr. President. Here are some scissors you can run with instead.

  7. OMG you could scream at the lunatic hypocrisy of it all.
