Police Militarization

We militarized the police to fight a war on those people.

The hearing, convened to probe “police militarization” in the wake of the police response to protests in Ferguson, Mo., focused on three federal programs designed to help local police departments respond to drug crime and terrorist attacks. Lawmakers and witnesses suggested that programs have run amok, haphazardly doling out military equipment that has transformed some local police into paramilitary forces.

Is the government going to ask for its equipment back?

    Why do conservatives sow the wind and then complain when they reap the whirlwind? Besides we will need the heavily armed police when we start serious gun control by that time the black people of ferguson will be in control and they can have the police stop cars with n.r.a. stickers instead of driving while black.
