WMATA Police Make Me Feel Safe

My e-mail to the WMATA Chief of Police:

Chief,

I'm a daily rider of metrorail and noticed this week that there are suddenly an inordinate number of officers visible in the system. Many of them are carrying a frightening amount of firepower (are those MP5 submachine guns?). What gives?

OK well after using Metro Police's "Contact Us" page, I got this:

Status : 502 Bad Gateway

I resent to chiefofpolice@wmata.com (first hit on google). No dice. I hit up mtaborn@wmata.com and got an out-of-office reply which asked me to refer to Deputy Chief Jeff Delinski. Odds are good that jdelinski@wmata.com is valid, so I bounced it there. No reply as of yet.
