Gettin' ready for the upcoming civil war.

Obama DHS Purchases 2,700 Light-Armored Tanks to Go With Their 1.6 Billion Bullet Stockpile
It won't be enough, Janet.

What else could these be for, other than to use against Americans who refuse to accept the subjugation that is coming incrementally, every single day?

My greatest thrill would be to see these and other DHS assets turned against them by freedom-loving individuals inside these LE organize

What about the Soviet parachute shaped-charge grenades that seem purpose-build for lightly-armored MRAP roofs? Anything Soviet can be improved on and done DIY in HS metalshop.

Them boys probably have to take a wizz or get coffee eventually, right?

They will need fuel, lots of fuel, which is unfortunately Diesel/JP8 (not wonderful MoGas), but it does come in trucks. The weak spot on a modern DI Diesel engine is how critically-clean fuel has to be or else the injectors will get trashed RFN. Fuel filters jam up fast, too. At first, crews won't know what to do. A set of injectors + labor might be 5 figures (or 12 in NewZim US D), with expected delays and wrong parts sent in the right boxes. Towing big vehicles home is not fun.

I don't recall MRAP interiors being that luxurious, unless DHS has contracted to get the leather-interior and ghetto-shine Eddie Bauer upgrade package during cop-prep for American streets. I've got a feeling that riding in a US-spec MRAP is a real step down from cruising in a Clown Vic during "to serve man" missions.

Cheers.

And I thought we were under sequestration.

If the constitution is supposed to limit 2A rights to the mentally ill, why are we letting the mentally ill run the government? Isn't narcissitic, sociopathy considered to be a mental illness?

Going to get mighty smelly in those things when they find out they can't open the doors.

At some point the MRAP crew has to get out.

I went to my local sporting goods store today just to see the empty ammo shelves. I check in once a month to BS with the staff and ask the tired question of when more ammo will be coming in.
Our side is all geared up for the war. On one day alone Dec 21 2012 177,000 firearms were sold . That is a line of people 3 feet apart 67 miles long.

Not gonna say it in print, but I see a weakness that could be exploited with a lowly .30-06.

I need at least 2 of these babies, Please feel free to drop them off at your earliest Convenience DHS.

I loved the Old 7.3 International Diesel FORD used. Hopefully these have some nice diesels otherwise don't. I have no need of a TORCH.

I will like these right after they arrive I promise. Plus I will take better care of them than you.

Make sure they are fully equipped.

Otherwise my LORD will be angry.

Looks like they wouldn't be too hard for us to operate.

Any one who doesn’t get the big picture by now is either addicted to synthetic lobotomy serum, or is an inhabitant of the Parallel Universe of Neuron Free Skull Cavity’s.

ummm, I'd submit a good portion of America is the latter. That leaves the three percent.

5,400 well-built Molotov cocktails will sufficiently warm up 2,700 DHS tankettes to get the crews out in the open. Where they can be...reasoned with.

Nah! They are just for rescuing police - its written on the side!

These MRAP vehicles have to be strickly for urban warfare, something I want no part of. They look to be totally useless for off-road ops, even thought they are 4-wheel drive and I don't care what kind of diesel they have. Due to the fact that this administration wants a wide open border, don't look for them to be deployed there. These vehicles are to be used against us. The lies coming out of DHS are completely exposed and a prudent man will be ready for the Big One.

I was thinking what most of you were as well, they have to open the doors sometime.

The moment they try to egress, fill the cab wilt .30 caliber steel core rounds.

I understand that armour works in both directions, yes?

Block them in with other vehicles, put a bunch of brush and other combustibles underneath, and start a bonfire. Either the occupants will get out quickly, or they will bake in a 4WD oven.

MamaLiberty said...

What they want is to make us fearful and submissive.

Yeah, right....

These JBTs are already pissing themselves in fear of honest men...

Unfortunately, that makes them even more dangerous because fear drives out what little reason they may be capable of exercising.

Be careful out there in the cities...

Re: RKG-3s vs. MRAPs:

See: http://www.stripes.com/blogs/stripes-central/stripes-central-1.8040/mraps-modified-to-deflect-rkg-3-anti-tank-grenades-1.8439

Also, MRAPs suck off road. Fixed axles, too heavy, etc. Military had to design an off-road version for A-Stan (M-ATV). These ain't them. Strictly road bound.

Also, big flat roofs suitable for top attack if they roll down city streets. Read up on Grozny.

In the rural areas there are all kinds of neat tricks you can pull since they are pretty much road bound. The more restrictive the terrain (heavily wooded, etc.) the better.

These vehicles have many important weaknesses:

They are too heavy to drive over 70% of the world's bridges.

They have shit visibility and situational awareness for what is going on outside.

They are very wide and don't fit down many urban streets.

They are prone to tipping.

They get about 3 mpg.

You know, an interesting Psy-Ops campaign might be to begin posting a serious of 'Hypothetical' what if scenarios that explain who, for a video game for instance, such vehicals 'similar' to these could be easily defeated.

Just, you know, sayin'...

Too bad the story is bullsh*t. The Navy IS getting 2700 MRAPs; DHS has about 20.

explosive-forced projectiles work really well also anzio 20mm rifles can punch through them like a 30 cal punches through a beer can.
