Defense Department Gives Local Police Equipment Designed For A War Zone - Fox News Gets it Right?
This might seem controversial, but where’s the beef? The Bad Guys can get whatever they want. Oh, disarm the citizens! Of course! – Tom Dennen
An Associated Press investigation of the Defense Department military surplus program this year found that a disproportionate share of the $4.2 billion worth of property distributed since 1990 — everything from blankets to bayonets and Humvees — has been obtained by police and sheriff’s departments in rural areas with few officers and little crime.
From war zones to city streets, some military vehicles are getting a new life — and not everyone is happy about the recycling.
The Defense Department recently announced it would be giving domestic law enforcement forces hulking vehicles designed to efficiently maneuver in a war zone for use in thwarting any potential high-scale activity.
This did not sit well with those who see a troubling trend: the militarization of local police departments, including the American Civil Liberties Union, which has criticized the Defense Department for giving 18-ton, $500,000 armor-protected military fighting vehicles to local forces.
ACLU affiliates have been collecting 2012 records to determine the extent of military hardware and tactics sent to police and plan to issue a report early next year.
“One of our concerns with this is it has a tendency to escalate violence,” said ACLU Center for Justice senior counsel Kara Dansky.

Unfortunately this is not news. Police forces across the country are as militarized as troops in Anwar province. These aren’t some occupying force from far away; they are our neighbors! And we know who they are and where they live.
remember Watertown..
Given the fact that a large scale war could break out at any time, what did you expect? The “Pivot to Asia” is underway! A wider war will necessitate even more “Homeland Security”! Is it just a coincidence that a new movie is coming out named “Homeland”? See how you’re being used yet?
Now they on,y have to find an excuse to use them.
They will manufacture an excuse as it suits their desires .
WAR is PEACE!
SLAVERY is FREEDOM!
IGNORANCE is KNOWLEDGE!
LIES are TRUTH!
OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA!
USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA!
They are a little over the top for crime control , or is some radical change about to happen where the people will rebel, what is going on , is there an external threat how about some transparency .
