every federal agency has an OIG - office of inspector general.......NOT a swat unit...deer lord
1811 is the federal career series that fill these Agent positions
they investigate fraud - they investigate alleged violations of various laws that most of you never even think about
they serve federal search warrants.......because they are federal law enforcement agents - they carry guns - just like every "police type" should
do some research on the guys that carry guns at NOAA
the US Postal Inspectors are heavily involved in the fight against child porn - as well as a bunch of other cases - they do A LOT of good police work
i could go on and on - but i think it would be pointless, because no matter what the facts are - there is always that crowd that simply has a need to hate everything the government does - to think that everything they do is nefarious, etc etc
The likelihood of abuse is there, whether you want to see it or not.
