DHS Grants 'Like Winning The Lottery' For state, Local Officials

America is prepared if pumpkin-starved zombies that can only be killed with flavored snowballs invade, thanks to billions of dollars in federal grants to harden the homeland against terror attacks.

What's not clear is whether the United States is any better protected against more conventional attacks by actual humans using guns, bombs or chemical weapons, according to report on wasteful spending of Department of Homeland Security (DHS) money issued today by Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Okla.

DHS has spent $35 billion since 2003 on grants to help state and local governments prevent and respond to terrorist attacks. Money flowed through up to 17 different programs with few standards as to what would qualify.

And it's been in service for over a year and hasn't responded on a call yet. Speaking of sleeping well we also have 12 new firemen that gets paid to sleep every night of the week at the $14 million fire station in the Ghetto. What a waste.

WE the people do not need these extreme military assets on our streets in the hands of local or State Government. We need these assets on the border to stop the threat before it comes. It makes no sense whatsoever to allow the riff raff in like the liberals in Government have done for years.
These assets are not intended for anything but people control and big Government intimidation under the guise of protecting us from a threat they have allowed into the country. The porous borders must close and the immigration requirements must be amended to eliminate the threat of terrorism here at home. Then these para-military wannabe cop zealots can go back to dunkin'...
