Ignore Alex Jones? Maybe, maybe not.

Paul Revere, of Colonial days? How many people listened to his midnight ride? I believe the number is estimated between one and three percent. Not many by all accounts.

Joneses nut job accounts of 9/11 have been vindicated by several groups, Engineer's and Architect's for 9/11 truth. Some 1,500 professional high rise building experts, saying planes could not have caused the downing of the buildings. Pilots for 9/11 truth, is a group of heavy body plane experts that say their planes can not be flown like they exhibited that day. Physically impossible they claim.

This is not a 9/11 truth thread, but Alex Jones is somewhat tarnished by his early stance on 9/11, which is now becoming more mainstream.



If Jones says duck and run, I am at least not going to dismiss his warnings as a kook, I will listen to what he has to say, and measure its weight for the truth it holds.

I miss stated the comment!

Alex Jones warnings should be acknowledged with what is going on in our country.

What I was trying to get to the meat and potatoes article which was the Fedbid and the 22 page pdf bid from the government for additional .40 Cal and 9mm rounds.

DHS goes through millions of rounds each and every year. The train both police officers and military personnel for urban combat. What is odd about the civilian market is 40 cal ammo is more available in this area than any other pistol round.

I've seen cases of .40 stacked to the ceiling at a local police supply store. And BTW, they sell to the public.

Now if DHS is buying ****.40 cal**** and yet .40 cal is one of the few that is available to us, maybe the conspiracy folks need to re-think their rantings.

OMG!!! Alex Jones is doing his typical "extrapolate it to the nth degree" BS. Look at the bid. It is for 240 THOUSAND rounds NOT 24 BILLION!!!

100,000 rds .40 S&W 165 gr HP
100,000 rds 9mm 115 gr JHP
40,000 rds 9mm 124 gr FMJ

Alex Jones is an IDIOT. He proves it once again.
