Placeholder Image
While attempting to disarm U.S. citizens, our government is arming itself to the teeth: At least 73 federal agencies have their own private armies here in the U.S., including the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Fisheries Office, the Department of Education, the Food and Drug Administration, the Inspector General’s office of the Department of Agriculture, the Bureau of Land Management, the Library of Congress and Veterans Affairs. The Department of Homeland Security has more than 100,000 armed officers. DHS is currently seeking to acquire 7,000 automatic assault weapons and 30-round magazines for those weapons.
