Some may have forgotten, or not be aware, that the Federal Reserve system has its own police force. Well, it does: "The U.S. Federal Reserve Police is the law enforcement arm of the Federal Reserve System, the central banking system of the United States.... Officers are certified to carry a variety of weapons systems (depending on assignment) including semi-automatic pistols, assault rifles, submachine guns, shotguns, less-lethal weapons, pepper spray, batons and other standard police equipment. Officers also wear bullet resistant vests/body armor. On October 12, 2010 President Barack Obama signed into law S.B. 1132 the "Law Enforcement Officers' Safety Act Improvements Act", which states that law enforcement officers of the Federal Reserve are "qualified law enforcement officers" and thus are authorized to carry a firearm off-duty."
At last check, there were over 1000 sworn members of the Fed police force. And judging by the recent spike in appearances of such "help wanted" ads as those shown below, that number is too low. We expect many more job postings such as these to appear in the coming weeks and months: in fact, we are willing to predict that the closer we get to a "renormalization" of the Fed's balance sheet, the faster the hiring of Fed cops...

No you don’t!They are scared people are going to see through the whole money game which they have been funding with NO money nor assets to back it up for 100 years along with all governments who went along with this scam!The central banks all come from the land of oz because it’s worthless paper that no one has nor can anyone repay!
Nothing in Chicago? Damn, I’d like to carry down there. LOL!
Governments and bankers produce nothing but debt and thats why they work hand in hand together.
Governments and bankers produce nothing but debt and thats why they work hand in hand together.
But they are part of the government.
I can't think of an organization that has more assets than the Fed. Over $4 trillion and counting.
My sympathy for your losses. There will be many surprised when it happens here ... but it will.
They’re hiring so much I know a guy who they just hired to help hire.
If the powers to be want to take from me what I have rightfully earned, they will have to pay dearly for it. There’s a price to pay for not abiding by the Constitution, and nobody living in the US is above the law of the land. Violate the law, and I will exercise my right to redress my grievances, whether you like it or not. Sound good?
Yes, sounds good; some of my family was impacted, I was not; and they did not have any recourse: who would they go after?
The way this works, it is the feds that just take what they want; I would be interested in knowing what one could do in that case, as the feds hide behind a wall of secrecy; there is no ‘individual’ responsible, just as the system was designed to protect themselves.
Those in office are protected real well, since they fear due to their actions.
Do I see this right?
“And here everyone thought I was crazy by using my retirement funds to buy survival gear and firepower.”
They still think you’re crazy.
BTW, here's a Thompson they keep on display at the KC Fed.

Career Perspectives in American Banking
“We work so closely with the Government to insure stability in the American banking system, that some people think we’re a branch of the Government. Actually, we’re not.”
They are a private cartel.
They only have paper assets and a little gold they stole from countries during world WW11.Strange Germany couldn’t get their gold back if they really had 4 trillion dollars of hard assets.The fed is the biggest fraud in American history from day 1.
What government?Not the federal government.
Not a branch of government, still part of government.
Yup. $4 trillion in paper assets. Over $300 billion in gold.
Yes, the federal government.
I would love to see the breakdown of who funded the US government 7 trillion dollars since obama has been president and where are the lenders assets to back it up.There are NONE!
