My Fellow Americans: Police Are Preparing for War Against YOU

[MadeFromDust]

Do you condone your local PD arming themselves like a military unit with equipment paid for by your taxpayer dollars? Or would that be against your will?

I'd suggest for the police to check the population differences in ratio between them and of the population at large. I would also then look at the type of fire arms that are currently available to them and calculate my/our odds after they have done so.

and if we had the inside work in the police.

So it looks like the police are getting military equipment in preparation for war....a war against returning veterans!

Yup.

That's the only conclusion anyone can draw.

Although tactically, you wonder why they are waiting for the veterans to return before they start their war.

Also what about the military units stationed throughout the US. And they part of the police war on the military? Because it seems like the military would be more a cohesive force than thousands of local police forces.

Or are they just going to stand by as the police go to war against veterans.

Is it just a war against veterans, not active military? Kind like how gangs don't let members just leave, a blood in, blood out sort of thing?

if you look at the state of our country, look at our right wing rhetoric preaching hate against our own, and how much of a mass affect its having you'll see a very bleak picture.

If the incident in Canada with 2 police officers getting killed by anti government militia guy in camo means anything...

or the couple who were part of a anti government militia trying to start a revolution by killing 2 police in Cici's....

or in general of what half our country seems to think which basically falls along the lines of police and politicians are the root of evil in America while the soldiers are the heroes.

its not a good time to be a police officer in this country. Its only going to get worse with all of these right wing loons and militia's thinking they need to take the country back. I'm sure we're not that far away from another incident like those.

Not concerned. Having contingencies for all possible situations is how you don't get dead.

Meanwhile, extremists on both sides putting a rhetorical spin on everything they see is just par for the course in this country these days.

i dont think there is anything extreme on the left right now in our country that is very scary other than maybe trying to prove global warming to the right...

but the right extreme in our country with these militia's, anti government rhetoric, taking the country back rhetoric, anti immigration rhetoric, and just so much ridiculousness you read in the stuff they say that mimics malcontents throughout the country, and these are our country's extremists who are generally the most into firearms....and people wonder why our police forces are trying to become better equipped?

honestly what kind of stuff do you think that 'Revolution' couple spouted? or that militia guy from Canada? same exact crap you hear from all of the right wing loons on the internet. Like i don't really get how people keep pretending all of these extremists are equally crazy on both sides when its the extremist right acting crazy 9 times out of 10.

I mean fukkk, people on the left don't even like guns generally speaking. aren't even a part of militia's, or don't have anywhere near the paranoia of the right wing extremists. it kills me how people always have to pretend the extremists are the same on both sides to be politically correct, even if its not remotely true.
