State Media Spins 2013 Ammo Shortage As Our Fault

Last January federal background checks for firearms topped out at 2.5 million according to the FBI. This year background check totals were only one third of that number.

"The last two years gun shop owners and consumers complained about shortages of ammo and firearms." said all mainstream media outlets.

The government is blaming the public for ammo and firearm shortages from the previous year? Really?
Last March,  Forbes.com published an article that fully exposed the purchase of 1.6. billion rounds of hollow point ammunition and MRAP's . Hollow point ammo is banned from use in war by the U.N. for being inhumane yet, DHS claimed they were for target practice?  Sure. The article also asked the question why?

"It is utterly inconceivable that Department of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano is planning a coup d’etat against President Obama, and the Congress, to install herself as Supreme Ruler of the United States of America." -forbes.com

The shortage was caused by the government to discourage ammo sales and to leave more Americans defenseless. Obama himself has admitted to not wanting Americans to have firearms, don't believe me? Professor John Lott had a conversation with young Obama about firearm ownership and this is what Obama said.

“When I was first introduced to Obama (when both worked at the University of Chicago Law School, where Lott was famous for his analysis of firearms possession), 

he said, ‘Oh, you’re the gun guy.’ 

I responded: ‘Yes, I guess so.’ 

’I don’t believe that people should own guns,’ Obama replied. 

I then replied that it might be fun to have lunch and talk about that statement some time. 

He simply grimaced and turned away. … 

Unlike other liberal academics who usually enjoyed discussing opposing ideas, Obama showed disdain.”

Obama is the biggest threat to the 2nd amendment and to the right of self defense, proved by his own statements.

But why is the media not discussing the ammo purchases made by the government as a factor?
Because the majority of Americans are sheep. They believe what they are told and obey all commands if they come from the government and it's hard for them to believe the government is prepared for war with its citizens. After all, the sheer amount of ammo and material has been said to be enough for forty years worth of war.
