I think that most federal agencies now have swat teams since Obama and company. I don't see a need for them in any federal agency, other than perhaps the FBI. Even then, they could utilize local swat teams when needed. I am sure repete and some of his neighbors are feeling a bit better now that one of these escapee's have been found.

I think you would be crazy to register your guns, especially in a state like New York or Massachusetts. After all, you may need those weapons to defend yourselves in the near future. Things seem to be coming to a head in this country. People are tired of being pushed around and having the government getting into their face for about anything and everything. Time to make sure to keep your powder dry.

Because of our gun culture in this country, every law enforcement agency has a special unit of SWAT. Ever since the Columbine massacre.....hands were forced to do something. CBP should absolutely have a small unit in every region that can saddle up in a flash and move. They are the first line of defense to stop potential terrorists who might get slightly cold feet at the border and decide to do something there.

People need to be prepared to defend themselves. I don't like how our police have become so militarized across the country, often even smaller communities. Police don't come until after the crime has been committed.

I carry a firearm because cop's are called AFTER the fact and then file a report.

I read that Obama plans on using executive orders to put more gun control on the country. Hillary stated she would go around congress to have more gun control. If we follow the constitution the government has no legal authority to regulate guns, ammunition or magazine capacity. They have no legal authority to regulate any firearms, period!!!! Of course, that doesn't seem to have stopped them with this or other issues they want to control.
