Government Mercenaries Employed in America's Cities

This is a two-parter.  First is a story about the Government hiring companies such as Blackwater (made famous for their common use of excessive force in Iraq) to complement the efforts of the DEA.  Next, a raw story article about a raid in California, and a photograph that is raising some eyebrows

It's easy to go after the drug-users first.  No one likes them.
