    Their shirts aren't brown, I'm sure it's fine.

    They actually look like sailors' uniforms:



    ETA: nevermind, those say Coast Guard on them. Why the hell is that the picture on the FEMA site?

    Is the Coast Guard part of DHS now?

    Yes... it happened with the restructure of the .gov after 9/11.

    Coast is under DHS yes, but in times of potential war, Coast Guard will fall under the Navy.
    "The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles. --Jeff Cooper"

    Yeah, it's enough to make your head spin, huh? CBP, TSA, USSS, ICE, FEMA, CG.... I understand CBP, ICE, CG, and USSS staying, so dissolving the DHS would really just need to be done to rid us of TSA and FEMA...
