You are being too kind to this this idiot. I can’t believe I have to read this drivel from the Libtard sites but now Townhall?
I watched video of the militarized cops from either the first or second night of the Ferguson trouble. There was a group of semi protesters just standing peacefully on the sidewalks and these cops started pulling up in the combat outfits, jumped out of their ramped up vehicles with tactical weapons and started stalking around. Within a couple of minutes they had basically incited a riot. It was unbelievable.
In addition lets all remember the jumped up combat cops did zippo to stop the looting. Not a thing. Just drove by and let the business owners fend for themselves.
No what the hopped up militarized cops did best was harass and arrest the press and incite the general public to riot.
The point that everybody is missing. These JBT's did nothing to protect the city. They were too busy showing the sheep who is the boss.
All SWAT teams need to be restricted to the same arms and gear we can buy at the local gun shop. No flash bang grenades, tear gas or machine guns. No armored vehicles with gun turrets. An AR-15 just like ours is ok but no select fire allowed.
Most important, no knock raids need to be banned. The 4th Amendment is Law.
That is what irked Mark Steyn too…..just what you said.
And let’s not forget, the “invasion” of Boston - to find a wounded 14 year old.
