You do understand WHY LEOs have all that, right ?
No I do not understand.
Quote:First of all, it is all surplus that will likely go to waste.
That is the cost of doing war and by no means a factor.

(understand that not all will use that info, but mathematically it increases the likelihood with numbers having said knowledge)
I didn't realize those skills were a pre requisition .... actually I am not surprised.
I don't understand why people believe those skills translate well into civilian law enforcement. That's rhetorical BTW and I'm not too comfortable with it.
Quote:Third, information available like never before.
You'd be surprised about how many people out there know how to make an IED.
That is why police need armored personnel carriers and the like.
But why the fūck do they need weapon mounted drones?
Armored vehicles by themselves is one thing, but add in the rest of militarizations and sprinkle in a lil NDAA, Patriot Act type stuff and you can see plainly something is awry.
