Obama brilliantly convin&ces REPUBS to escort in the police military state

[Agnostic007]

Yup....as a Tanker you people are pissing me off. There is only one tank in the US inventory - the M1A series....the folks at the National Training Center use the Sheridan light tank as an OPFOR vehicle in limited roles. Everything else is an MRAP vehicle of some sort, an M113 or part of the Stryker family..including the piece of shit with the 105 on it. A Bradley aint a tank either. Its a IFV or Infantry fighting vehicle. These can all be used to deliver police swat to a firefight but most don't have mounted weapons. Cops don't use frag grenades. Even if it has a track it aint a tank gents.

Thank you for the clarification.

I found that in addition to the military equipment, police departments are now using African Lions as part of their law enforcement. I found this to be quite shocking. Well, their actually dogs but that's not as frightening so I like to use African Lion instead

Your breakdown was fine...I was piling on for 240's benefit. I was never a fan of all the military hardware...especially the shit during the search for the Boston bombing douchbags.

Yeah, you actually added some credibility, since what I say is obviously because I am brainwashed and part of the problem.

I agree there are departments what went batshit crazy with the available military equipment. There needs to be some reasonableness to the procurement. I'm not a proponent of some of the stuff they say can be had. I haven't seen it actually being requested here. We have gotten a helicopter and some armored personnel carriers for SWAT and the Bomb squad and I support those

240 comes on here just to argue. I can't count how many times hes stated he was a repub when he's a blatant liberal. The rest have at least admitted they were mental...er, I mean liberal right from the get go. If you ask why they would for Obama (twice) it's usually convoluted reasoning or no reason at all. Shit, 240 still thinks just because Obama "won..haha" twice that he could actually do his job. There's zero correlation between the two. My thinking is they just like to be controlled and expanding the government is a way for them to be controlled. Government is the absolute problem.

attack the messesnger, not the message lol...

Do you breeze over the posts? That is not a tank. There are not a lot of departments with tanks. Having said that.. the 50 Cal machine gun is ridiculous and a good example of why there needs to be controls on it.

Its a 113.....but thats a friggen .50 cal WTF. They need that crap to get close and unload or breach a big target. At Waco the ATF had to use a CEV or combat engineer vehicle. It was a engineer platform on a M60 chassis with a 152 military breach cannon. The driver and crew were Delta as the story goes....so departments don't want to go down that road have been able to buy their own crap. I'm not a fan at all.
