Watching the second Hunger Games movie while reading this, and it’s playing the part where the “peacekeepers” are brutalizing District 12.
I can honestly see the peacekeepers replaced by SWAT teams and doing the same thing
Moose have antlers?
Well.... they are very horny...
When I was growing up, there were a few old timers with earrings. They were old swabbies who had sailed the 7 seas, and wore that earring as a symbol of their travels. Part of the blued, screwed, and tattooed process I gathered.
Now if I see a man with an earring I immediately think druggie or fruit.
And Fedzilla is thinking they are their resources being staged near potential insurgents. Are country citizens being trained how to operate this equipment in a pinch? Not likely.
I’m thinking that if they need an MWRAP then I need an AT4, just for the sake of parity.
Just more targets of opportunity for when shooting war starts
Or neat toys for our side when TSHTF
Even with all this SWAT masturbatory implements it won’t he enough for local Barneys to hold off a well heeled response by patriot citizenry

“Officer safety comes first”
Very informative. This absolutely represents a fundamental change in policing and a root cause of growing public disgust with law enforcement. Their mission is protect and serve the public, not their own axx.
The cost of law enforcement is taking an ever increasing huge portion of the community budgets for their generous compensation, benefits, pensions, early retirements, and immunity from prosecution.. It won’t be long before the public demands major cuts in policing if this trend continues. They want services that serve them, such as parks, infrastructure, and abuse.
