The military is for fighting enemies of the State.

The police are for protecting and serving the people.

When the police become militarized, the people become enemies of the State.

[Robert Teesdale]

When the police become militarized, the people become enemies of the State.

That is not correct.

The police become militarized, because the State has already become the enemy of the People.
