Foreign mercenaries on American soil?

Lord Obama.

Whats to stop them from running amuck?

Its been proven now that APF is indeed BlackWater.

Oh yeah sure, let's have a privatized police force. While we're at it, I declare the 100 yds. around my person as "foqland" where I am dictator and what I say goes.

[metchsteekle]

well, we have private security contractors fighting half of the war in iraq, we have privately owned and operated prisons in america, so why not a private police force? lets turn the federal government into a corporation and sell stock in it

ya, they'll go great with our private health care

expensive and shitty

And the problem is oversight. Do these guys have an Internal Affairs? Whats to stop them from running amuck?

One guy put it well. 'Too many people lying, dodging, dippin' and duckin' on this one for it to be on the level.'

Whatever happens, we'll see soon enough. Let's all keep an eye on it shall we?

This is very strange indeed. It appears to me that this "APF" group could be a terrorist group mascarading as a mercenary group. Odd how this Captain Micheal refuses to give a last name and has a middle eastern accent, and they claim they have years of experiance on thier website, yet Captain Micheal says it was established in Feburary...

One thing is for sure... they are not a police force. The police are run by the government, this is a freelance group. I'm not even sure of the legality of this. They are supposedly guarding a prison, and prison are run by the government as well, thus they have government security. I don't think a right government would be too happy about some ragtag group of mercenaries, possibly terrorists taking over one of thier facilities, abandoned/unused or not.

It seems, Al Peterson may have contracted this company to run the EMPTY jail.
It's possible that he's just trying to muscle his authority into office. Then what, the contract goes to the highest bidder? Though, it was kinda strange the "Captain Michael" barely spoke understandable English; Mid-East accent?
Ever seen that movie that came out a few years ago, wild west gunfighter becomes the marshal of a town to kill off the corrupt leaders? I think this is more spending tax money on a bogus venture. Mercedes police cars??! wtf!

[gnounc]

Thats fucked...I would move far away.

"That does not concern me"

umm What?!

[Fuzznut]

What do you guys think of this?
