DHS gears up for civil unrest prior to presidential electionsPublished: 28 July, 2012, 12:49 The Department of Homeland Security has ordered masses of riot gear equipment to prepare for potential significant domestic riots at the Republican National Convention, Democratic National Convention and next year’s presidential inauguration. The DHS submitted a rushed solicitation to the Federal Business Opportunities site on Wednesday, which is a portal for Federal government procurement requisitions over $25,000. The request gave the potential suppliers only one day to submit their proposals and a 15-day delivery requirement to Alexandria, Virginia. As the brief explains, "the objective of this effort is to procure riot gear to prepare for the 2012 Democratic and Republican National Conventions, the 2013 Presidential Inauguration and other future similar activities." The total amount ordered is about 150 sets of riot helmets, thigh and groin protectors, hard-shell shin guards and other riot gear. Specifically, DHS is looking to obtain: rt.com/usa/news/dhs-unrest-gear-283/

Why are they going to do this?
Do they know someone is going to try and steal the election?
Why prep for unrest at the inauguration?
I smell something fishy! Do you smell something fishy?

I think that election violence is inevitable. It will be just like the NBA playoffs. "If our team loses, we riot. If our team wins, we riot."
Frankly, it would be irresponsible of them to not expect violence.
The question is, how will the react to it? Given that Holder has said they will not prosecute people of darker skin pigment for election violations, and given the lack of prosecution for the Occupy twits, I highly doubt any violence will be prosecuted, if the offenders were of the proper political persuasion .

Just caught this on FOX NEWS, wow, they reported on something with substance. FOX reported that DHS will have "FREE SPEECH ZONES".
Excuse me but all of America is a Free Speech society, it's called the 1ST Amendment. We are not limited to only restricted areas to voice our grievances.

I heard on the radio this morning that in Louisiana the Republican state committee has unseated Ron Paul delegates and they will not be sent as part of the state delegation. Looks like more than one side wants to rig the election process. My question is why screw with Ron Paul delegates as there is no way he could pull enough votes to sway the easy nomination of Romney. But hey maybe they do know something we don't know. Maybe Ron Paul delegates will not play ball and roll over so they want to make sure they are not present. Maybe they are afraid Ron Paul could pull enough to send it to more than one vote. No matter only more proof that both sides are/have been rigging elections for years. Your government at work.... politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2012/07/27/ron-paul-campaign-to-challenge-all-louisiana-delegates/

Perhaps that is not the problem. In 2008 the Republican party did the same thing and put up Song Bird McCain knowing he couldn't win. This time they put up Romney as another sham. The idea that perhaps Romney may be unable to run in November due to legal issues always in the back of their minds. However if they leave Paul on the list of possibles and Romney has to drop out who is left. Here comes the helmet! There have been 6 different European articles that state that Hillary told the Chinese PM that the VP for Romney would be Jeb Bush. Hmmmmmmm So Romney get disqualified or is forced to dropout. Paul is not able to be seated and whala President Bush the 3rd! Long live the King! Remember! The only difference between the democrats and the republicans is the buttons!

I guess I'm confusing all the states he's getting screwed in, mixed up!

Jeb would be a non starter if the people's votes counted but I guess that answers that. Also the Europeans hated Bush. The former owner of my company was German and when asked about Obama he said that in general Europeans liked Obama (birds of a feather). He added anyone but Bush everyone in Europe hates Bush. My guess is another pick who is not a natural born citizen, Rubio. They cannot help themselves in their pandering to a special interest group they want to woe. A group that is growing and keeping the birth rate up to maintain a stable US population. That is besides Muslims.
They are afraid of Ron Paul for some reason I have yet to figure out. The establishment has painted him as an eccentric uncle at best.

You can see clearly the BLACK DHS vehicles and military equipment they and the Police used against protesters.The unarmed young man shot down that started the protest .Was caught up in a police gun sweep.This is when they go in to an area and search for any firearms under to premiss that they want to find gangbangers with drugs.They take any and all guns legal or not.And force the mostly poor gun owners to get a lawyer if they want their guns back.It's much cheaper to just buy new ones. The police state is here.. co-ironwill.blogspot.com/2012/07/anaheim-police-dressed-in-acus-stop.html

Walfred Vehicles yes but the guys in front are local police. Note the checker board arm bands. The guys in back are also local cops. I suggest that everyone here go to training.fema.gov/is/crslist.asp?page=all there you will find a course called ICS 100. This is a detailed course on how the interoperability of the DHS, FEMA, Local Police, Local Fire ect work together. This is what drove me from the home responder enthusiastic to a basic understanding of just how bad this really is. These courses are FREE and take a fairly short amount of time to complete. Remember in the Art of war : "Know your enemy , but more important know your self." This is Obama's 30,000 man Civilian Army.
