Yeah, well, we enlisted swine are pessimistic by nature.

Personally, I think you're giving "the vast majority of our political leadership" way too much credit.

And two civilians - one U.S., one Brit.

What's going on is that the United States government has been taken over by the enemies of the United States. Think France in the middle of the last century. I only see one way out...

So? Look at the so-called F-117; no weapons at all, just a bomb bay, but it's still called an "F".

Uh, sorry John, but no.

1. The "brass" know that recruiting centers are targets, given that several have already been attacked.

2. The "brass" refuse to provide any defense for these targets, either by arming the recruiters or by stationing security (military or civilian) on site.

3. The "brass" object when Americans take it on themselves to provide security for the recruiters. In fact, they explicitly identify these Americans as threats to the recruiters, despite absolutely no evidence to support this conclusion.

One has to wonder just whose side the "brass" is on.

But what do I know? I am just a prior-service enlisted swine (USAF/ANG E-6) and former civilian security officer (8 years).

Friends from around the country (I love blogs!) confirm that .22 is still scarce, and expen$ive when it can be found.

On the scattergun front, I checked my local Academy a couple of weeks ago. Shotgun ammo was thin generally, with only 1 (one!) 100-round box of 20g target ammo on the shelf, and only a very few 25-round boxes. Likewise little hunting ammo, and practically no specialty (#3 Buck, slug, flechette) ammo.

I, too, can neither confirm nor deny reports that scattergun shooters are/have been stockpiling ammunition.
