None of that gear is used by everyday patrolling police officers. The military grade gear is for S.W.A.T/Tactical units. Is everybody saying we shouldn't have these units?


First off, every patrol car is equipped with, what is now called “crowd control” gear, used to be riot gear but that started to tip off the fact that the ones with the gear are the ones that start the riots! So yes, every officer on patrol has upgraded equipment that they shouldn’t have, not to mention all the assault weapons they are given and told what heroes they are for doing what we do every day, without hiding behind a uniform and being armed!

Secondly, NO!@!! We should not have these military forces; they are a violation of the law! Not that they have to obey the law, even when they kick in your door, kill your dog, abuse you and your family, and “OH sorry Mr. and Mrs. Smith, we were supposed to be raiding 75453 west Jefferson rd, this is 75452 north Jefferson rd. our bad, have a nice day.

People who do crimes should be arrested, people who don't should be let be. People who support massive retaliation against all for the few exceptions will be the undoing of everything.


Cowards who think giving up liberties that belong to us all, for their own false sense of security, empowering the most dangerous and only true threat to our lives are the undoing of us all. It has been going on for years; we are nothing but slaves, surfs at best!

next law on tap, you’ll be searched for a cell phone if you have one in the car, your under arrest, anything else we can put a sobbing mother of a dead kid in front of the camera for, to get the bleeding hearts to allow liberties to be stolen for the sake of a false sense of security?

KNEEL DOWN BEFORE YEE ALMIGHT LORD GOD.....THE LAW ENFORCER, OR DIE YOU PLEABS!!!
