#1 Works for me....

Anyway, can't the FBI guard themselves?

"They won't protect us, but at least they gave us these nice orange hunting vests so we won't be shot accidentally..."

#4 For phuechs sake! I believe we've got quite enough to keep FBI investigators busy right here at home. Hows about the Bureau investigating (finding and prosecuting) illegals coming across our US borders and state lines committing felony crimes right here at home.

#5 Regardless of whether or not Blackwater is guilty of any wrongdoing, this is a legally prudent move by their organization. For them to be tasked with protecting those who are investigating their putative culpability represents a potential and possibly profound conflict of interest. Still, it remains somewhat amusing to speculate upon exactly who will end up providing security for the FBI investigators. Unless the military diverts some extremely skilled cover, these bureau wonks will have less-than-seasoned protection. Curious, that.
