Anon, think. Or at least pretend you can argue in good faith.

If you were one of the largest commercial banks in the USA, and had the ability to functionally dictate the trading price of silver, why would you keep it low while buying? Clearly so you could buy more, until the day people call your bullshit or the market shortages force a price discovery you can't control. On that day, you can now unload and take a massive payday.

But the way there, so long as you can run the futures price, you'll make billions in a year swinging the price and trading on movements you created. Even when the SEC fined JPM's metals desk for this, it was less than what they pulled in over 1 week.

They unironically are retarded, see >>50807304
and >>50807538.

They have an entire division of sworn officers that carry guns and are required to pass yearly quals. Remember, Elliot Ness (the guy who got Al Capone on tax evasion) was one of them. If you divide the total money spent on ammo by the number of officers, its barely enough to afford 500 rounds of 9mm per officer. Which you could blow through in one or two good range days if you're serious about getting gud with a pistol.

The real issue is that the media won't ever miss a chance to call 500 rounds in a criminal's home "an arsenal / stockpile of ammo" when its what they hand out to everyone with a pulse and a badge.
