You have hit on something there. Nevertheless a number agencies in that category HAVE been issued personal weapons and the "training" to use them.
We now arrive at a time when a Social Worker without warrant or probable cause can come on your property to investigate "child abuse" or "endangerment" and if you start mouthing off they may decide to continue their investigation "by force of arms"
Welcome to 21st Century Patriot Act America.

As we saw a week ago, when a foaming at the mouth 'Constitutionalist', blew away a cop in Massilon, Ohio after a traffic stop, traffic cops need weapons to defend themselves.
