I'm a little confused why this is news. A law enforcement agency ordered body armor for its agents.

Because you would rather see officers killed rather than have armor. Thanks assh@le. And yes, I would be happy to say that to your face.
Just a Hairy Special Snowflake supply clerk with no field experience, shooting an Asymetric carbine as a Try Hard. Snarky and easily butt hurt. Favorite animal is the Cape Buffalo....likely indicative of a personality disorder.

It is possible for someone to not know that DoA folks engage in arrests and other things that might require that type of gear.
If I remember correctly, the Ag guys investigate food stamp fraud, which takes place mostly in urban environments and is carried out by organized criminal enterprises, especially the Russian mob.
Body armor and SMGs make a lot of sense for that.

So, basic concealable body armor is an example of militarization?
I had an ER nurse in a class. I noticed she kept taking all head shots. Her response when asked why, "'I've seen too many people who have been shot in the chest putting up a fight in the ER." Point taken.
