Former Marine Warns of "Terrifying" Militarized Occupation of American Cities - "When Did This Become OK?"

Former Marine Paul Szoldra warns that events in Ferguson, Missouri illustrate the “terrifying” result of the militarization of police, with the American people now being treated like insurgents in Afghanistan and Iraq.
In an article for Business Insider, Szoldra questions why police in Ferguson are wearing combat gear such as desert camouflage which is normally reserved for troops fighting in foreign war zones.
“We looked intimidating, but all of our vehicles and equipment had a clear purpose for combat against enemy forces. So why is this same gear being used on our city streets?” asks Szoldra, adding, “When did this become OK?”
The former Marine notes how police in Ferguson are armed with military-style rifles with scopes as well as body armor.
“Their uniform would be mistaken for a soldier’s if it weren’t for their “Police” patches,” writes Szoldra. “They wear green tops, and pants fashioned after the U.S. Marine Corps MARPAT camouflage pattern. And they stand in front of a massive armored truck called a Bearcat, similar in look to a mine-resistant ambush protected vehicle, or as the troops who rode in them call it, the MRAP.”
Szoldra cites conversations he had with other former military personnel who pointed out that some of the police in Ferguson are more heavily armed than U.S. troops in an “actual warzone.”
“When did “protect and serve” turn into “us versus them”? asks Szoldra, asserting that the sight of police in militarized combat gear is not helping the situation.

This type of policing and militarization of local authorities became “OK” when the federal government understood that they were hopelessly outnumbered by 100 million well-armed civilians, and they realized they needed to get help controlling the sheeple because they were becoming more lawless and criminal daily. OK… this just gives us “locals” more ammo and weapons to use against the corruption. Taking care of a few local rogue police or sheriff deputies will not be any issue…
