Through the 1033 program, the federal government has geared America’s local police departments with military-grade equipment — ranging from airplanes to bayonets — worth hundreds of millions of dollars.
NPR combed through the transaction data for the program to find out where the equipment went and what kind of gear was involved. Since 2006, the Pentagon distributed more than 79,000 assault rifles, 205 grenade launchers, nearly 12,000 bayonets, nearly 4,000 combat knives, 50 airplanes, 479 bomb detonator robots, and much more to America’s local cops.
Seriously, there is something going on here. Ths is wrong. This is so wrong. Stay tuned..
So when the bullets run out because the lead ran out. The miloice will fall back to the knife fight. Jeezzzz this is getting ridiculous!
Bayonets, grenade launchers, etc. given to police? It’s way past ridiculous.
This is not a legitimate government. It hasn’t been legitimate for a very long time. We would be best served by siccing our newly armed brownshirt thugs on the miscreants in Washington.
Or…. the bayonets are for isis use…. to cut the extremely ignorant stupid police’s heads off with? /alternative/2014/08/america-is-under-attack-and-the-american-people-know-it-too-3015792.html. what does a person do when they see decapitated police heads lining the street corners? A) the remaining citizens and police run for the hills like in Iraq. b) Sit back and watch TV, football, big brother and being American say…. it must be close to Halloween and pop open a beer? The American people have been chemically poisoned, debt raped, there government infiltrated by communist thugs, industrial sabotage and left penniless…. America we’re in serious dire straights…. and ripe for the communist pounce. Bye bye stupid police?
