Would not load in FireFox for me either.

Seems to load ok in chrome.

I'd be interested in what exactly they think those jihadis are going to do...that place is all concrete and narrow road over the top. Pretty hard getting down to the bottom (generators/turbines) also. That ain't your basic TVA dam.

More likely setting up an ambush for zombies coming into AZ from vegas--sweet choke point. Maybe repelling party houseboats from the lake mead.

Just another buying ammo story--nothing to see here.

If it were 520,000 rounds or 5.2 million rounds it would raise my suspicions...but 52,000 rounds while sounding like a lot is actually a good training event for a security force of 52 officers...nothing here...move along...

So if at any given time there is 21 officers, times 3 for full shift coverage, that comes out to 63 persons or about 825 rounds per person. About the amount needed for most 2-3 day LETC type training courses out there.

"Anonymous" must like to write a lot :)

I agree with a recent "anonymous" who said:
" 5.2 million rounds it would raise my suspicions...but 52,000 rounds while sounding like a lot is actually a good training event for a security force "

We have to recall the attack on the power substation a couple years ago.
(Just hours after the Boston Marathon bombing)
