The Orlando PD responders were clearly operating under “Active Shooter” protocol (implemented nationally after the teacher at Columbine bled out), until they got the Stand Down order. Who gave that order and why needs to be pursued hard.
I’m wondering if cities accepting military weapons, ammo, gear and vehicles have to accept a little fine print that goes along with the “gift,” namely loss of local control.

Interesting thought. Been my experience that every carrot from the government comes with a stick.
Police departments like “toys”. Citizens don’t want their tax money used to pay for them so if the government provides them for free that resolves the financial issue. Kind of like friends with benefits but government agencies are not your friends.
