fatal shooting of an African-American teenager, Michael Brown, by a white police officer in Ferguson.”

Regardless of the content of the rest of the article the media insists on adding phrases worded in such a way as to keep the racism flame burning!

Images of police wielding military-style guns and armor have alarmed many Americans following violence that was triggered by the fatal shooting of an African-American teenager, Michael Brown, by a white police officer in Ferguson.

Images of heavily armed drug gangs alarm me much more. Barney Fife cannot take on M 13

All they need to do is review the North Hollywood shootout.

Though too late and for the wrong reason, this is a good step. I doubt any change will come, though.

A month or so ago they announced that the FBI will start taping all suspect interrogations.

And those are the only good things I can think of that have come out of this administration.

"a big difference between our military and our local law enforcement and we don't want those lines blurred."

Perhaps he doesn't want the local law enforcement to be able to combat the federal troops in the event he were to declare Marshall law. If it been any other president asking for the review, it wouldn't seem so scary~

While it seems prudent to evaluate this transfer of military hardware to civilian LE, it wasn’t the ‘hardware’ that caused the riots. The riots started and then the ‘hardware’ was brought in.

Obama orders review of police use of military hardware:

The Feds will maintain their military hardware and they will increase their jurisdiction. The local police will be disarmed and phased out.

Military hardware will not be used on blacks. Military hardware will be used on whites and tea party patriots.
