[QUOTE="SMS, post: 2148541, member: 42"] Yup. I fail to see how it is any of Congress' business if a local PD can't get ammo. It's the department's and the city's job to plan ahead. Anyone who thought ammo purchasing was going to be business as usual after the CT shooting was foolish. What do they say about piss poor planning? I'm not up to speed how local PD ammo purchases work, but in the .mil, we planned and ordered for the fiscal year. In Oklahoma the fiscal year usually starts in July. Newtown happened in December. Did they have their ammo use forcasted, purchased, ordered etc...before this latest run on ammo? If not, why not? I'm sure it's not easy, and it may well be rocket science, but it's your job. Do it. Business as usual, isn't. Adapt. My heart goes out to the individual LEOs who have to suffer through shortages and I will personally give three magazines worth of 9mm to a cop in my town if he isn't carrying a full load...but I'm betting that's not the case and is pure sensationalism on the chief's part. Running up the red-herring and outright fabrication of DHS ammo purchases that never occured in the first place just blows any credibility of "reporting" this "article" might have. It's going for maximum spin and sensationalism... The chief's comments about 1 out of 5 officers being killed with "assault rifles" just proves that he is as uninterested in fact and as interested in sensationlism of the media is. [/QUOTE]
