FEMA Takes Gun Bigotry to New Extreme

I would not be surprised if FEMA took action against their own employees for carrying firearms to protect themselves. But this is insane:

The Phoenix Fire Department's Urban Search and Rescue team has been suspended from the Federal Emergency Management Agency for deploying armed police officers to protect firefighters in violation of the agency's rules.

As a result, Phoenix officials now are threatening to refuse some of the most dangerous deployments in the future or possibly even pull out of the federal agency altogether, unless the rules are changed to allow teams to bring their own security, even if that means police with guns.

Someone somewhere doesn't even have a slight tenuous grasp on reality. Absolutely ludicrous.
