Comrades, the news that there are over 70 armed federal agencies is certainly alarming workers for the Common Good™ across the fruited collective. The questions that immediately come to mind are…
Why are there so few armed federal agencies? I mean, just 70 or so? Seriously?
…and…
Who's going to do something about it?
That's where I, your caring Komissar, come in. To address the shortage of armed agencies with self-awarded powers to arrest citizens, I announce with great satisfaction the armed wing of the People's Cube's Blogunov Foundation for Disabled Minority Kittens (formerly “Handicapped” Minority Kittens until an astute comrade made the correction).
The new agency is called the U.S. Federal Bureau of Disabled Minority Kittens. Be on the lookout in your neighborhood for large men wearing navy blue windbreakers with the yellow FBDMK logo proudly displayed across the back!
Do you want to denounce a neighbor? Nothing could be simpler than giving us a call and alleging kitten abuse! Our men will be knocking on that door in mere minutes.
No more messing about with time consuming warrants, gibberish about “probable cause”, or all that nonsense about the Fourth Amendment. Efficiency is our hallmark. You call it in, we haul ‘em in. It's as simple as that.
This is the New Era of the Federal Agency. Separation of powers? Gone!
We write the regulations, we judge your neighbor to be in violation of them, and we enforce them. Thus we gloriously bypass the legislative, judicial, and executive branches by rolling them into one unaccountable agency.
A badge, a Glock, and a windbreaker do it all. Efficiency, efficiency, efficiency!
Of course, all these new agencies must be adequately funded. You don't think we get Barrett rifles and SAWs for free, do you? What about the ammo? The armored vehicles? So the upside is that you get to demonstrate your gratitude by paying more in taxes so that we can vigilantly watch out for the rights of disabled minority kittens day and night.
Of course, if there isn't enough tax revenue, we've authorized ourselves to simply confiscate your property. Think of the proud tears that will trickle down your cheek as we compassionately take away your car, your house, your children, and give you the satisfaction of identifying with the oppressed proletariat everywhere. Yes, it's a win-win-win for everybody.
Join me in celebrating, comrades. Show that you care. Be enthusiastic, because we're watching.
