One other thing that really bothers me here, is that these men have their identities hidden.

Anyone that has paid attention over the last few decades knows that community policing has been the big push. You have officers walking beats, talking to the populace, forming neighborhood watches. Essentially they are developing repore with the public.

Then you have one of these armored vehicles go screeching into a home to break the door down, and a paramilitary operation explode right next door. Can I just say right here, that would not endear me to the local police department.

If we’re talking about terrorist suspects, by all means. If we’re talking about a guy who bragged that he was a police officer, this is massive overkill.

The militarization of local law enforcement seems to be on the uptrend. I believe it's part of the overall agenda to suppress dissent and control patriotic conservative Americans.

It can no longer be ignored.
