We need answers from this trio, where did the ammunition come from?

Whatever questions they cannot answer their supplier will have to answer.

Say whatever you all want, a curse was descended on this nation after UPP lost power to a bunch money hungry vampires and Judases. People who professed to have integrity then switch sides for positions and a few dollars more. I do not care if ANR disagree
