layers of security personnel in the USA

[David Beard]

   The "armed forces" as well as the CIA are prohibited from operating within
   our borders by law. Do they always obey the law? I doubt it. Taking all of
   these agencies into account the biggest deterrent to an organized invasion
   is still an armed populace!

     state police, county sherrifs, village police, city police,FBI, CIA,
     secret service, maybe some other band of spooks.
