Something WILL happen someday. Problem is, nobody knows if it will start with our government, disease, economic crash, natural disaster, famine, nuclear blast, world war 3, large scale terrorism, etc.
No empire lasts forever, no nation has ever held shit together for more than a few hundred years. History tells us that things WILL turn south someday. Just be as ready as you can and try not to go crazy chasing white rabbits in the mean time.
According to the theory of probability, yes, "something" WILL happen. Be it 10 days, 10 years, 10 decades, "something" WILL happen.
That doesn't mean that people have to jump like startled cats everytime they think that something daily and mundane is something it's not. Thinking like that about damn near every single thing isn't healthy at all, and crying wolf about it is gonna make people stop believing you when "something" ACTUALLY is happening.
Federal LEO's have to qualify quarterly with multiple firearms (.40 S&W Glock, Remington 870, 10mm MP5, etc).
"On October 31, 2013, a total of 35,344 people worked for the FBI, including 13,598 Special Agents..."
If all those Agents used 250 rounds each quarter to qualify, that's just under 3.4 million rounds every 3 months. That's 13,598,000 a year. Now each Division of the FBI has their own SWAT force made up of Agents. They use significantly more ammo to train throughout the year. Then also add the FBI's multiple HRTs (Hostage Rescue Teams) and other specialized teams. They train a ton as well. So lets just round up to 14,000,000 per year for the FBI.
Now add the BATF, CIA, USPS, DHS, (undisclosed agency), etc.
Millions of rounds of ammo doesn't mean shit. It just means that they are doing their mandatory quarterly certs for firearms.

Hopefully you are right, but even ignoring all of the conspiracy stuff, you don't have to look too far to see that there is a legitimate concern. Look at what happen after Katrina. This is a documented case of citizens being disarmed. Look at the systematic disarmament going on in California, Maryland and other anti-gun states.
When you look at what happened with Katrina, you have to believe that on some level, whether conscious or not, there is a plan on the table in an emergency situation with local, state, Federal LE for disarming American citizens.
What about all the recent DHS and local drills that depict the enemy as 2nd amendment supporters and patriot groups?
