Small towns in Indiana getting MRAPS..for drug interdiction..riiiggghhhttt
A silver lining: The people in those small towns know exactly where those who would occupy said vehicles live. Get in one to unconstitutionally suppress the populace and you probably won’t live 48 hours after getting out again. (And while you’re out oppressing, who is watching your family?) This is why I still have hope that most local LE will walk off the job with their equipment if the wrong orders are ever given. At some point it just makes more sense to let a tyrant swing without you.
Don’t you just love this little gem from the NY Slimes article.....
“In the Indianapolis suburbs, officers said they needed a mine-resistant vehicle to protest against a possible attack by veterans returning from war.”
“You have a lot of people who are coming out of the military that have the ability and knowledge to build I.E.D.’s and to defeat law enforcement techniques, Sgt. Dan Downing of the Morgan Co. Sheriff’s Dept. told the local Fox affiliate. Sergeant Downing did not return a message seeking comment.”
Of course he didn’t return the reporter’s message, the coward. What an insulting thing to say about our returning vets.
