On the Friday broadcast of his HBO show Real Time, host Bill Maher opined on the police force used in Boston following the twin bombings and during the manhunt for the younger Tsarnaev brother in the suburb of Watertown.

"I want to talk about the police," Bill Maher said. "I want to talk about the police, who I am a supporter of and of course, obviously, we all are. We would be in big trouble without the police."

Maher proceeded to show images of what the police presence looked like in a urban city like Boston.

"I mean, if this is what you have, why don't you invade a country?" Maher opined. "I mean, go up to Canada, take their oil."

"You might want to call it an urban assault vehicle," Maher said of the half-track vehicle manned by the Boston Police Department.

"This country is becoming a police state and it is very troubling to me," Maher observed.

Bill Maher’s awakening is painful to watch because of the knowledge that he and his ilk dragged the rest of us through their learning experience.

Well: Who woke up that goofy Chunk of slime?

Yes Bill: This is tyranny, Government that is ruling with an iron hand. The Government we need to have our guns to protect ourselves from.

It’s going to get worse dipstick.

This is what the Constitution warned us about and was written to prevent. This is the reason for the 2nd. Amendment,-——and all of those other Amendments dipsticks like you rage against.

But as long as you get free stuff it’s ok.

We are looking down the throat of a Government that is turning into a dictatorship right before our eyes.

The morons told us it was already this way with Bush, now they’re surprised when it happens when an anti-American Fraud president receives nothing but praise and adulation for hurting America at every opportunity?

Don’t be fooled. He already knows this and is just saying what he has been told to say.

Did anyone else see this exchange between Bill Maher and Brian Levin. I do believe that Maher is beginning to see the light

Seriously, SWAT teams order innocent Americans out of their homes at gunpoint searching for a dangerous terrorist in one neighborhood for one day and this is the new ‘normal’ in police state America ?? This is worse than his Peta inspired grossly illogical attack on Americans for Eating Meat

And yet he thinks the people being well-armed is stupid so that the (((police))) of the (((state))) have all of the weapons.

Be informed that liberal idiots, like you Bill, created this mess.

Its exactly what he himself has been calling for. The idiot just didn’t think that liberals would feel the brunt of it.

You guys need to give this Maher fellow a call and straighten him out - he doesn’t realize that these searches were entirely appropriate and to be expected, and that the affected citizens were very appreciative.

Maher’s clearly a right-wing revolutionary, and a danger to society.

(let me give you a hint - when an 0bamaphile like Maher says they’ve gone too far, they’ve gone too far).

“Who was it said that a conservative is a liberal that got mugged the night before?”

I was thinking; who only wakes up to this when it’s a couple of left wing terrorists that are on the wrong end of the police action?

Yes, it is very alarming. American citizens being herded around with little ability to defend themselves!

Every man in that house should have armed with a rifle to protect their family. No way, no how should the cops go door to door forcing people out of their homes at gunpoint, being screamed at to obey orders. “F” that.

Let the cops protect the streets...I'll protect my own home thank you very much.
