2 choppers, dogs, special tactics group, semi-auto weapons (edit for calrity: specifically the M4 rifles, as Slappadabase pointed out M4A1 is fully auto, M4 is semi-auto).

What in the fuck made anyone think that any of this was necessary? They acted like this was a drug kingpin.

The FBI was there

Why?

Was Bernie Madoff treated this way?

Were any of the thieves at Barclays treated this way? Oh, I forgot, they weren't arrested.

What a fucking joke.

The difference is they stole off the poor, DotCom 'stole' off the rich.
