The Social Security Administration has apparently decided not to let all those other agencies have all the "black ninja suit" fun, and has put out a bid for 174,000 rounds of .357 Sig.
I know that social security has suffered from a worsening ratio of contributors to beneficiaries like any other ponzi scheme but I think they're asking for trouble with OSHA. The Soviets discovered that when you're shooting a mere 7000 people in the head that you needed a smaller caliber bullet to not overtax you're workers hands.
There has to be a more efficient way.
This is getting stupid and scary at the same time.
ReplyDeleteI think we can safely add "er" to each of those.
DeleteYup, the "Sandmen" will kill us off at 30.
ReplyDeleteComplete with cheap 70's special effects, my nightmare come true.
DeleteHere is a far out theory, The people in power are getting ready to declare military law in case there beloved leader looses in November.
ReplyDeleteOr getting ready for the mother of all rioting hissy fits when he loses.
DeleteIt is being delevered to 41 locations, so it is a little over 4,000 rounds at each place. If you figure there are a couple guards at each location, that doesn't make for much of a preppers hoard.
ReplyDeleteI had no idea that they used the .357 Sig.
I think the Secret Service started the caliber trend.
DeleteI'm not ascribing to malice what can be adequately explained by stupidity, but most police officers don't shoot 100 rounds a year in training.
