***I dont think any pd needs to have 350 assault rifles, ever.***
Bill Clinton gave thousands of full auto M-16s to the LAPD.
He later also gave them bayonets.
My first memory of what NM cops used to use was 1955, when a Farmington policeman stopped at our motel for some reason. All us kids gathered around the cruiser to look at all the “neat” things inside.
The policeman opened the door, and strapped to the inside of the door was a rifle scabbard with a lever action 30-30 carbine inside.
it’d be one thing if they were going to mow down knmown gun houses and known thug hangouts.
they don’t do that not even with swat.
they go after regular, singular persons,’with swat. this crap is going to be used on us.
not foreign enemies, not drug gangs, not illegals, just us citizens.
they had better realize the citizenry is not going to be mowed down like sheep.
