Why do they carry guns too?
Think of this... they are law enforcement too, if they happen to board a boat that happens to be drug runners a bad situation could occur. Why does US Customs wear combat boots, in case of combat. Anything can happen on the water, piracy, murder, etc. I don't blame the guys for trying to protect themselves.
Us, it can happen in US water too.
