Opening Arguments

Armed and dangerous

Yes, please, as quickly as possible:

Rep. Chris Stewart of Utah, concerned about the armed agents that surrounded Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy’s property, is mulling a measure to cut funding for any “paramilitary units” that work for the Bureau of Land Management, the Internal Revenue Service and other federal regulatory agencies.
 
As a matter of fact, quite "mulling" it and just do it, and while you're at it, include any federal agency whose primary duty is not law enforcement. Why do we need armed EPA officers or, believe it or not, guns wielded byy the departments of Education, Agriculture, Housing and Urban Development, and the list just goes on and on. If they get into a situation calling for weapons, let them call on the FBI or Homeland Security.
 
Yeah, now, let's about about that rotten Second Amendment, shall we?
