1.1 - Mission
The primary mission of DHS is to safeguard national security by combating
transnational gangs. This mission is accomplished through raids on enemy
gang operations, mass patrols, and intelligence gathering.
Fact → Every day, gang members, car bomb jihadists and rooftop mass
killers threaten Anomic. All of these people are part of secret foreign
terrorist networks that threaten the American way of life.
1.2 - Divisions
DHS Ground Forces ← You start here
The Ground Forces consist of the majority of uniformed members, from
Field Agent up to Supervisor. This unit's primary role is to engage in ground
combat, using overwhelming force to exterminate a target.
DHS Special Operations (SO)
DHS SO is an elite group selected from the Ground Forces, with the
purpose of performing specialized raids and tactical maneuvers. Members
are selected through a rigorous tryout process and go through training to
perfect breaching and combat maneuvers.
DHS Intelligence and Analysis (I&A)
I&A is responsible for infiltrating enemy gangs and providing intel to inform
the operations of the previous two groups. Other info is classified.
DHS High Command (HICOM)
Responsible for directing the organization, maintaining comms
infrastructure, and recruiting new members.

3.1 - Comms Rules
TLDR: If you think it’s wrong it probably is.
1.​ No NSFW material. Porn or gore videos = insta ban.
2.​ No .EXE or any filetype more complicated than an MP4. This also
applies to sus links.
3.​ No impersonation, especially claiming to be or represent HICOM.
4.​ Be respectful of other members. If somebody wants you to stop
saying something, hear them out. Slurs are not tolerated.
5.​ The admins (HICOM) have final say in all situations.
