Feds Label Bulk Buying of Food a Potential Terrorist Activity

As part of its effort to encourage business owners to spy on their customers, the FBI has labeled the bulk purchase of food as a potential indication of terrorist activity, despite the fact that FEMA itself last year purchased $1 billion dollars worth of storable food.

A flyer aimed at Military Surplus stores produced under the auspices of the FBI’s Communities Against Terrorism project, encourages owners to report people who “make bulk purchases of items to include… meals ready to eat”.

Webmaster's Commentary: 

Are these people stark raving mad?!?

They are going to have to arrest every Mormon family in the country then, because one of the key aspects of Mormonism to to be prepared by having extra food stored and maintained.

eing prepared with one years' worth of stored food hardly seems like religious advice, but the LDS (Mormon) Church has taught it since the 1970s. Self-sufficiency, provident living, and emergency preparedness are important parts of the gospel of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS or Mormon.) Church members are taught to store food in their homes to protect against some of life's unexpected emergencies.

And what about people here in the state of Hawaii, who are in one of the most geographically isolated places on this earth?!? Every Pacific Island woman I know around here has some spare food tucked away in case or really raunchy weather or a hurricane; will the FBI want to arrest them also?!?
