Dire Need

Not bad, starting at $65K. Plus they start you right out with fantasies about that "Only Ones" attitude that separates "Us" from "Them."

Check out the "r" in "Dire." Is that a pistol motif à la "The Sopranos" logo?

What I'm not seeing is if this is actually an ad placed by the Bureau or if this is some matchbook training school--Regardless, somebody figured out they could make money appealing to a certain type of mentality.

UPDATE: Matchbook U. Not an offer of employment!  Financial assistance available if qualified!

Facebook is lousy with these ads. The wording often makes it seem they were written by someone who doesn't speak english as a first language. Instead of saying become an FBI agent it's always "become FBI!" or "...become SWAT. Making 65k a year!"

It's Fibbie Man(TM)! Jet pack, scuba sled and arch-enemy Militia Man sold separately!

Interesting...those big jackboots and the three letters showing on the T-shirt seem appropriate, no?

Yeah Anon - especially in light of the knee pads.

All I see on the black shirt under the vest are the letters "LIC". Is that part of "LICK ME"?

Could stand for "LICense to Kill."

Tactical black uniforms make a solid humanoid blob in the semi-dark. Not very tactical.
