LOS ANGELES - Los Angeles Police Chief William Bratton heads to Washington next week to pitch the idea of putting a national anti-terrorism academy in Southern California. Bratton will seek federal funding for a research center where law enforcement officers from around the country can study terrorism.
L-A County Sheriff Lee Baca will go along. He's not asking for money yet but the sheriff is pulling together plans to create a national anti-terror training facility in Los Alamitos. The tactical center would have mock villages and other locations where authorities could practice dealing with suicide bombings and other terror attacks.

LAPD can't hire or train officers to replace those heading elsewhere or to retirement...why do they want a terror center here? Good Grief.
Has anyone seen an article yet re: the Nat'l Guardsmen that had to retreat from high powered weapon carrying men somewhere along the Arizona border?
Of course under their orders they cannot and I repeat cannot arrest, question or raise a weapon against these guys. One of these days something is going to happen to one of these young men who are put there just for window dressing it appears.
