Ummmm - you have to stop reading Obama's Palace Guard media.
I go to the Brit paper websites. They don't get the memo to "suppress" photos of the militarized American police.
I've been posting Pretend Sojer photos on FR for a year or two now.
Hundreds of millions of dollars of military surplus is being transferred to local PDs, and some folks don't want to recognize that.

Yeah, that means absolutely nothing. The internet has made national, and international news local. A cop in Philly does something wrong, then a cop in Atlanta does something wrong, and finally a cop in Phoenix does something wrong, and Free Republic goes wild about the the chronic misbehavior of cops. All the while forgetting there are around 800,000 cops in the U.S. I really don’t care if you can pull up a photo of cops responding to some incident in another part of the country, how many times have you seen your local police use that type of equipment?
