I've written before about various government agencies that have firearms and SWAT teams, like the Department of Education. Today I noticed that the newest SWAT team that's come to my attention is operated by the Texas Parks and Wildlife department. You know, game wardens and park rangers. Because the new futuristic super-poacher needs a militarized game warden to stop him. Part of the arsenal? Gunboats mounted with .30 caliber machine guns including a 65 foot gulf patrol boat. 65' is almost superyacht status, a big freaking boat that cost millions of dollars. To make sure people have their proper fishing permits, I guess.
That is crazy.
Almost as crazy as the Missouri Water Patrol, that has a SWAT team. That trains on land. Because, you know, they need a SWAT team to combat frat boys getting drunk and girls without their tops on in party cove at Lake of the Ozarks.
Stay safe out there!
