In 2008, Barack Obama announced his plan to build a massive “civilian national security force” here in America. It would be just as well funded as the US military.
Today in America there are over 120,000 armed federal agents who work for 40 different agencies.
FOX News reported:
The recent uproar over armed EPA agents descending on a tiny Alaska mining town is shedding light on the fact that 40 federal agencies – including nearly a dozen typically not associated with law enforcement — have armed divisions.
The agencies employ about 120,000 full-time officers authorized to carry guns and make arrests, according to a June 2012 Justice Department report.
Though most Americans know agents within the Drug Enforcement Agency and the Federal Bureau of Prisons carry guns, agencies such as the Library of Congress and Federal Reserve Board employing armed officers might come as a surprise.
The incident that sparked the renewed interest and concern occurred in late August when a team of armed federal and state officials descended on the tiny Alaska gold mining town of Chicken, Alaska.
The Environmental Protection Agency, whose armed agents in full body armor participated, acknowledged taking part in the Alaska Environmental Crimes Task Force investigation, which it said was conducted to look for possible violations of the Clean Water Act.
Estimate of around 320,000,000 U.S., 3% of us is about 9,600,000 against their 120,000 I would say they are phucked!
Well good on them,,,
Wonder how they will fare against a few million armed and angry Patriots?
MOLON LABE
Only 120,000? Well considering that we have about 80 million hunters in our country (not counting non-hunters), I’m thinking we’ll just stand there and blow smoke in their faces while saying, “BRING IT, CHUMPS!”.
Sounds a lot like Hitler’s SA, a.k.a. Brown Shirts. They were the thugs of the NAZI party just like the BLM, EPA, and all the other Obama alphabet agencies of today.
“Obama Promised a ‘Civilian National Security Force’ – Today There Are Over 120,000 Armed Federal Agents”
Must be the ONLY promise he’s ever kept.
What are they armed with? And let’s do the math: there are 120,000 federal agents (armed) in 40 agencies. Thus each agency averages 3,000 armed agents dispersed throughout 50 states. More math: 40 agencies have 3,000 armed agents in 50 states or 60 armed agents per agency per state (remember this is just averaging). Thus BLM has 60 armed agents and EPA has 60 armed agents and IRS has 60 armed agents, etc. Considering that sometimes neither of these three agencies works together on a mission, so to speak, and rarely would these three agencies work together, that means that these agents (unless they have many state jurisdictional agents on hand…and you know how the feds declare jurisdiction in every case they can, which pisses off state and local agents) are going to have to deal with likely 1000 persons per agent, and that’s just a minimum in a very gun-free state like say, New Jersey.
In Texas? Even with Texas Rangers and ICE/Border Patrol folks? Make that closer to 100,000 armed citizens per agent and that’s a very low number.
No wonder they’re gonna need Chinese or Russian troops…
