While I respect it ,that is your opinion .I disagree .

Law Enforcement doesn't need to be militarized unless there is a more nefarious purpose to their being militarized.

You, GiantOne, from your posts, seem more than happy to have every aspect of your life controlled by others. I am not.

Extra armor would likely weigh down a normal patrol car, reducing effectiveness in traffic stops. Bulletproof glass sure. But neither of those are about the militarization of the police that you said your videos were proved the need for.
The militarization discussed was about ied proof troop carriers, swat team capabilities in small cities (not large ones named LA or New York).

Just showing a video of a cop being shot, while tragic, isn't proof of a need for military urban attack vehicles.

I had a customer years ago who made the occasional armored SUV for dignitaries. The thick steel plating and bullet proof glass add a tremendous amount of weight. The bullet proof glass restricts vision and the extra weight made the thing handle and accelerate like a fully loaded cement truck. The number of people trying to outrun the police would increase tenfold. The cop has to eventually exit the vehicle at some point and be vulnerable anyway.

Not every aspect no but I also realize there are some things that are out of my control but then I'm not the one whining and crying about people who do and don't mind it .

That sums your position up perfectly. You're ignorant of the task the police undertake.

Per SCotUS 2005 (http://www.nytimes.com/2005/06/28/politics/28scotus.html?_r=2&), the police have no Constitutional duty to protect. Therefore I undertake my own protection and that of the people I care about.

If anyone is ignorant of the position of the Police it would be you .Taking things out of context again but as I have said before you have never let a fact get in the way of one of you lies .

Please explain, with specifics, how I'm taking things out of context or admit you're a juvenile, reactionary poster with no basis for anything you stand for.
