Remember the complaints about militarization of police under Obama?

Not that I agree with civilian deployment, but that's a much smaller vehicle with some limited practicality.

Ohio State University Police got one - I guess to use against scary students?

MRAP's for all

I hear they make great x-mas presents and there's still time for Trumpelstiltskin to dole a few out to his favorite counties like Maricopa.

Trying to scare away democratic students so they don't get a higher education. Somehow it seems to be jogging something in my brain...I wonder what it is????

Pretty sure more deadly police is whst trump voters want.

Only in minority heavy neighborhoods

So, on NPR this morning, they mentioned that this order doesn't really rescind any thing from the Obama admin, which never was "a ban" as it is being touted by the Trump goblins. Obama's order never banned the police from military helmets, armor, and typical weapons, they simply needed to submit a request for justified need, which appears to have never been a problem. Obama's administration did restrict use for weapons like rocket launchers and "treaded vehicles," which this Trump order does not address....so anything that was considered "a ban" with Obama remains in place as "a ban" under Trump.

Just more chaff for the moron base. Trump claiming to do something great and as always against Obama, but he doesn't actually do it.

I for one won't feel safe until the Baltimore Police are the most dominant street gang in the city. Armored vehicles, stinger missiles, land mines, hell they stopped making LA class subs in 1996, probably can get one of those parked in the harbor to launch nukes at us. They could recommission it as the Freddy Grey.

Haha the new "rough ride". Strap your ass to a missile punk.
