Still alive and able to post on the Internet while men in that picture look for people who would blow your to bits and walk around your corpse for fun.

because men like that take care of business in our name.

And you don't want them to have body armor and armored vehicles to protect themselves because it puts your panties
in a bunch?

Tough shit. People protecting me and other everyday citizens should be afforded every security possible so they can
go home at night, just like you do. If you don't like what that looks like, shut off your TV and go frolic in a pasture.

As the police departments become more militarized and the money is taken from our schools and seniors, I hope you have a clear conscience.


Here's what I think of your comments


click, instant ignore.

keep pumping up the hawkish bullshit, it makes you look so progressive.

goes against progressive principles.

Tell you what - just assume those two boys were teabaggers. I bet you'd want to send a squadron of F-15s, then.

I'm not really sure what it is, exactly, that you're complaining about. A couple more sentences would probably help.

edited to add: This morning I mowed the front yard with a US made mower, and my wife went to town in a US made Ford.

Merry Christmas.

I waved to the cop and she waved back. A typical day in America in 2013.

Do you have any idea the kind of weapons the police now have for crowd control to use on US not terrorists? Any idea?




That's a focused taser



Sonic weapon



That's an active denial microwave system

And on and on


Rah rah, millions of dollars and thousands of men and machines for one guy. What is he Superman?


Sickening.


When you sit there and cheer them on it only gives them more reason to turn them on US when we disagree with their policies.


Think Occupy. Maybe you'll get it.

Good bye.
