A popular quote from the character Zed(Rip Torn) from the above film describes the ways of The Men in Black and their cohorts:
Zed: You'll dress only in attire specially sanctioned by MiB special services. You'll conform to the identity we give you, eat where we tell you, live where we tell you. From now on you'll have no identifying marks of any kind. You'll not stand out in any way. Your entire image is crafted to leave no lasting memory with anyone you encounter. You're a rumor, recognizable only as deja vu and dismissed just as quickly. You don't exist; you were never even born. Anonymity is your name. Silence your native tongue. You're no longer part of the System. You're above the System. Over it. Beyond it. We're "them." We're "they." We are the Men in Black.

A sarcastic title for ministers of some Mennonite churches. They wear dark suits sans ties and $30 black shoes, and have carefully combed and gelled hair and neatly trimmed beards They have a habit of driving around in minivans and checking in on all the good little Mennonites, to make sure they don't have radios hidden in their cars or TV sets in the closet. And if, heaven forbid, they find a harmonica or a camera stashed away somewhere, they will excommunicate you and cut you off from God and His Most Holy One True Church to burn in hell for eternity, 'cuz you're "worldly."
Mennonite friend: Hey, listen, can you keep all my CDs and shit for the weekend? We're having the Men in Black over for Sunday dinner.
Me: Sure, no problem man.
Mennonite friend: Thanks. I'd hate to be excommunicated and burn in hell if they found my stuff.
