So you would like to overturn the constitution and Bill of Rights??
It's important to remember that there is a reason for the way things
are.
Why do you think DHS is buying up all of the ammo, some 1.6 billion with
a B rounds as well as armored vehicles, drones, and other hardware until
now thought of as military gear, not "peace officer" gear?
Cite, Mr. Insanity? I didn't think so.....
Well, you have to give Snotty credit for being an out of control paranoid.
Many police departments have had armored vehicles for decades. Even our
local sheriff's department has one. I asked a deputy once why...and he
said it was a crowd attractor at fairs and other venues where his
department tries to reach out for recruits.
Police departments also have access to the same light arms assault
rifles the military uses, and the same sniper rifles.
I don't know much about the drones, but I'm sure police departments with
lots of wide open spaces could use some of the unarmed variety to help
in search and rescue.
Perhaps someday PsychSnotty will find himself in a shoot-out with the
local gendarmes. The family might try to escape through the back door on
that "motobike" they keep in the kitchen.
