MF4: Now the 5th Branch of the American Military, the Department of Agriculture, wants body armor in addition to the machine guns they requested before. Maybe they're planning an all out assault on raw milk producers in Amish country or maybe they'll go after the Rancher in Nevada who dared to defy Harry Reid and his plans for Chinese solar farms that enrich his corrupt family. Whatever their plans it seems tyrannical that our government needs to be turning civilian bureaucrats into armed fascist thugs. What are they preparing for...war against their own citizens?
