    City, county, state, federal, postal, parks, military police for each branch I assume, sometimes deputized posses, border patrol, ICE, Capitol Police, Secret Service, Drug Enforcement (federal, DEA), Gun cops (federal, ATF)... I feel like I'm missing some

      There's also the National Guard units of each state, although they're more commonly used for disaster relief.

        I always thought the national guard was supposed to be military not cops but, you know, :same-picture:

          When the verdict in George Floyd's murder trial was to be announced the governor of MN marched five thousand soliders with machine guns (but no ammo lol) in to the city to crush any possibility of protest or dissent. Iirc for a few days it was the most heavily militarized city on earth.

      The only two government agencies I absolutely will not fuck with are the secret service and the postal inspectors.
