At some point, it goes beyond worrisome and becomes just creepy. What are they planning?
Well ... it was free!
If these are now going to be tanks, then what are we going to call tanks?
But there’s no money to control the border? Right.
There’s supposed to be fence. Where is it?
There’s plenty of money to fly illegal aliens to the US destination of their choice and to militarize the police of every burg & ville and apparently even school districts but NOT to control the border.
That's the problem right there. Why does a public school district need it's own police department in the first place?
Officer Friendly's new car!
I wonder how Molotov cocktail resistant it is...
Us who lean libertarian have been scorned and mocked by folks on this forum over dog shootings and the military take over ofcthecpolice forces.

The armored vehicles present were Bearcats from St. Louis County, St. Louis City, and the Missouri State Highway Patrol.
Wonder how hard it would be for a group of people to form a small town, incorporate it and start doing the paperwork for these toys.
You gotta know that the Gov don’t check all the paperwork.
Jesus H. There is no local police agency in the United states that possesses a tank.
They are armored vehicles. Not muthereffing tanks.
Perhaps the bullets travel slower here & are less dangerous than anywhere else in the world. Is that why police can’t have armored protection?
