“””The cops may not be used to put down the scum in the street but with these weapons they at least feel safe.”””
Do you not see the contradiction? It they’re not being used to stop the violence what do they not feel safe about?
This arming of cops like the military is BS.

Safe that if Antifa attacks them they won’t lose. Cops as a group are a cowardly bunch and will easily break and flee if attacked by better armed people. Giving them military weapons bolsters their resolve.
