Patrol officers wear blue shirts and pants, hats are fine during ceremony, bad for street work, all their shoes lace up and the 38 was found to be substandard for police work.
All that is totally unsuited for SWAT operations.
Yah, and the fewer SWAT teams the fewer dead dogs and citizens when the the mall ninjas hit the wrong address. I don’t want ‘em thinking that they are not civilians.
The “operator” outfits feed their fantasies as fell warriors, imagining themselves as SEALs or Delta. We don’t want warrior cops, We need “Bobbies” as conceived by Robert Peel, ie Peace Officers not LEOs.
