"What does a policeman need a 50 caliber BMG rifle for?"
Our militarized "law enforcement" has become the standing army our founders feared.

I have expressed that exact same sentiment before. I'm glad that someone agrees with me. Police were never intended to be militarized like they have become. I have stated in the past that the whole Ruby Ridge incident could have been avoided by not sending in the SWAT team but by sending in a pot-bellied old sheriff to knock on Randy Weaver's door and say "Hey Randy, what's up? Ya know you missed yer court date the other day." Then Randy would have said, "No I didn't." and the sheriff could have said "They changed the date on you. You didn't know?" and all would have been well. But the minute you surround the place with BATF SWAT commandos, you have to expect things to turn out differently.
