Who are these DHS employees? Does anyone know anyone who is employed by the DHS? Are these former military people?
Where did all of these DHS employees come from?

Reminds me a lot of SWAT teams, that were only supposed to be used for the worst case, hostage with a big bomb type scenarios. Now they are called out to kill people suspected of having a little pot, or yelling at their kids to loud and whatnot.

We already have state police, local police, and county sheriffs. For federal issues we have the FBI, ATF, and US Marshals. What the heck do we need DHS police officers for to begin with, and what do they need to be armed for anyway? If I recall correctly the DHS was formed to be an organization that was to coordinate the other agencies to work together, they were not supposed to form their own police organization on top of the already existing ones.

I completely agree with that statement!
WHY do they need ammo at all?
Department of Homeland Security. The clue is in the name.

I thought the badge photo was interesting. The badge included DHS, FPS &
US Police. I didn't realize we had a US Police.
