MRAPS I have issues with, I am glad the on in Lawton just sets in the sheriff's yards.

Stradley is awfully proud of that thing too

Chris West is that way, too. I had visions of him climbing in that thing and "shaking one off" every night before he went home. Especially after the snazzy paint job he had put on it -- at taxpayer expense, I bet ... Sheesh ... I did a quick search but couldn't find a photo. Had some saying about protecting our constitutional rights on it. Saw it on the Book of Faces quite a while back, IIRC ...

Was it "protecting and serving the **** out of you?"

Lmao! Something like that ... I puked a little in my mouth when I saw it. Like every politician I've ever met he's so full of himself it's amazing to me he can keep his hands out of his own pants.

I know from personal experience just how little he cares about the people under him.

I don't think I've seen any order forms for grenade launchers. Any department that has that has the 37mm variety. Not the 40mm like the military has. When was the last time a cop fragged someone with a grenade/...lol.

Please point out where in that post I said anything about grenade launchers?

Just a few of our counties that have MRAP's.

Has everybody seen the video of the cop illegally assaulting and arresting a nurse for doing her job and abiding by the law????

Oh, I know, they aren't ALL like that......but how many of the other officers in the video stepped in and did anything to stop the illegal attack and arrest??

Remember, it only takes one bad cop to ruin (or end) your life......Still think cops should be given more military equipment???

There's at least two threads about that

 

[Buzzgun]

I know there are two threads about that, just asking if we really want more militarization of cops when they don't often weed out their own bad ones.

The same can be said for any profession. That action was only one of the thousands of LOE actions on that day. The media, and some people, enjoy finding ways to attack LEOs, teachers, preachers, etc. You are right, one apple can spoil the batch, but it makes so much more sense to recognize the thousands who are doing their part everyday to provide us with the "product" we want and deserve.

It has become a new national pastime to constantly find ways to attack anyone different than us.
