Sessions is now giving military equipment to state and local police.  What could go wrong?

been going wrong since late 1996....

 

The 1033 Program was created by the National Defense Authorization Act of Fiscal Year 1997 as part of the U.S. Government's Defense Logistics Agency Disposition Services (DLA) to transfer excess military equipment to civilian law enforcement agencies and signed into law by President Bill Clinton on Sept 23, 1996.

Check out the documentary "Peace Officer" by a former county sheriff, Dub Lawrence. 

He brought the first SWAT team to Utah. They ended up killing his son-in-law. Perfect time to seek this out.

Careful of the free viewings in Google. My anti-virus blocked an attack on a "viewer upgrade".

Cool. Maybe cut your Vivala posts by half or so? Nothing will be missed...?

Is this a quiz, Slacker? I feel like the correct answer has something to do with free will and is "yes"?

The issue is do you want to see more of this?  They don't even look like police officers.

I hate this program small town cops dont need bearcats and other tank like vehicles nor do they need grenade launchers. I had thought Obama killed this program a while back but was pretty pissed when I heard npr talking about it the other day. Turns out Obama did not kill the program only limited a few things like you guessed it grenade launchers, armed airplanes and bayonets. Trump admin reversed this policy although npr said almost no police depts wanted this stuff anyways. It was window dressing then and it's window dressing now. Whats more stunning is the difference in reporting between the written report and the one that aired on npr. You can see any reference to how much has NOT changed has been scrubbed on the print article.

1st run on air.
