I feel ever so much safer...don't you?

QuoteThere are now more non-military government employees who carry guns than there are U.S. Marines, according to a new report.

Open the Books, a taxpayer watchdog group, released a study Wednesday that finds domestic government agencies continue to grow their stockpiles of military-style weapons, as Democrats sat on the House floor calling for more restrictions on what guns American citizens can buy.

The first headline I thought of for this was, "They're Winning."

Send the bureaucrats into combat, bring the Marines home. The Marines are worth saving, bureaucrats - not so much.

To replace real fighters with real dirtbags insults Marines and encourages our enemies to punish us worse by letting the beaucrats live.

Yes but it does eliminate a lot of useless bureaucrats.

I re-thought this. Replacing Marines with ANYONE means more Marines  can be with their families rather than being punished serving O-pologize.

Sending bureaucrats does not guarantee their trip would be one-way. Luck and physical appearance will play a role. If they look like someone is about to take away their federal benefits-package the parasite class will appear so fierce that even Mussie scumbags will leave them alone.

We have Bill Clinton to thank for that.
His administration gave assault weapons to over 100 agencies
that were previously unarmed.

Maybe he was afraid that the U.S. Marshal's service
would let themselves be hindered by things such as
training, rules of engagement, due process, etc. ?

A bunch of GS 14's in suits and tie's toting ar-15's....for some reason the absurdity of that mental picture strikes me as hilarious.

I'd put money on a few good ol' boys in a few 4x4's with shotguns and tire iron's anyday
