We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.

Some Vegas Police have department of homeland security on their shirts as well.
On tv it said that they were part of a "Department of Homeland Security saturation force".

The FPS provides facility security for federal buildings.

Obama didn't create them.  They were established in 1971 when Nixon was President.

Primary responsibility is to protect federal facilities - sometimes they supplement the USSS at National Security Events. These guys are nothing new, they were previously under the GSA umbrella until the creation of DHS.

That's what I'm going with. Most DHS Police vehicles I've seen all had FPS on them as well. I don't think they're as widespread or numerous as most here believe.

I see quite a few "DHS Police" marked Tahoes and Crown Vics around here.

Predictably, they drive like the laws don't apply to them.

I love the weekly tard fest about FPS.  They aren't even police in the normal sense.  Feds call security, police.  Low paid shitty security job.

Looking at the picture, I would guess that most folks would focus upon the "Police.  DHS." and wonder... Hmmm, who the fuck is this guy?

 



Then, those of us in the know about these things would wonder...hmmm, I wonder if he is actually a real agent.

The problem comes when somebody ID'd as "DHS" where there's no such LEA tries to use force of the sort used by regular police, like stop a car on a highway. As in "Who the fuck are you supposed to be, Mr. Fife?" Now, if they continue acting like uniformed feds, I see no problem.

One of my friends from middle school is a DHS K9 handler.
I don't know if he has arrest powers, but he'll climb all sorts of structures with his dog on his back and P90.

That's where you're wrong. They are a LEA but not one with a massive jurisdiction like Alex Jones and the rest of the fearidiots want you to believe. They have jurisdiction on federal grounds to ensure federal buildings are secure. The biggest one that probably has a good sized force is the JFK Building in Boston about 1.6 miles away from the attack site.

It will help if you stop using the intentionally misleading name given to the organization by the government and begin using the appropriate name: Department of Internal Security.
That will clear up many questions.

They aren't a gestapo. They don't have massive ability to reign terror on you. They are not a domestic spy agency. They don't swear a personal oath of loyalty to Obama. These threads make my reading easier

Actually they contract that out to private security.  But unless Black-Tiger can tell us differently, their jurisdiction ends at the federal building parking lot?  I know their retirement isnt the typical Fed leo mandatory 57yo, because one of their guys here is older than that.
