FEMA suspends Phoenix search and rescue team over embedded armed security

Phoenix's Urban Search and Rescue team has been suspended from Katrina and Rita response work because Phoenix deploys four armed Phoenix Police Officers that have been deputized by the US Marshall's office for security. Phoenix is now threatening to pull out on ALL FEMA deployments unless the policy is changed. This only goes to prove, if you rely on the federal government for anything, you are friggin STUPID.
