Where does the Constitution say that the police forces of America should be armed with assault weapons either?

If the higher firepower is needed, bring in the ATF or National Guard.

No high sherriffs with their own personal militaries.

I trust my local sheriff more than the ATF any day, because I (and other voters) elect him.

I have diddley squat to say about who works at the BATFE.

YMMV

Where does the Constitution authorize the ATF?
