The Los Angeles Police Department has been heavily militarized for at least two decades. We have battering rams and helicopters flying 24 hours a day.

It’s not surprising. All police recruit heavily from returning military men. At times like this, their maneuvers are straight from military tactics.

You saw the militarization during the capture of the Boston Marathon bombers.

I think it’s natural. Why insist that they are only allowed to use sub-par gear?

OK fine. Let the cops use all the high powered weaponry they want. After all, its just the feral hoodrats.

Until later they use that stuff on us bitter clingers.

I would be fine with cops having more firepower than a battalion of Marines, but one of these days....

Now do they just throw these battering rams into the air, or do they have their own wings and engines?
