LOL. No. The shit that police are prepared to deal with is childs play compared to what they will face with a bad guy bent on taking out an MRAP. |

Based on his statements the Chief is a moron. He aquired this vehicle for exactly the wrong purpose. Someone needs to have a talk with him.

If you see my SWAT team roll up in this, you're probably already exhausted and starving because it has taken us 3 hours to find the guy that knows how to drive it, put air in the tires, move the seized motorcycles out from in front of it, and get here... so you might as well give up before the jail stops serving dinner.

There's a reason you separate military and the police. One fights the enemies of the state, the other serves and protects the people. When the police become militarized, then the enemies of the state tend to become the people.

Hell, for $2k I'd pick one up for shits and giggles.
But yeah, this guy is a jackass. Is his SWAT team just going to hang out in the vehicle? It's just a damned transport. I don't see how "It's over" just because they roll up in that. I'd be more concerned about an 18 wheeler full of SWAT guys than that thing. |

I can only hope there is someone who has already pulled him aside and explained to his dumb ass that they day they have to use their new armorered vehicle means its already the worst day their department ever had. That they need it means citizens or officers are bleeding out under fire and they cant get to them on foot or with a crown victoria without more getting killed or injured. |

The idea that the mere presence of an armorerd vehicle in the police lot will cause bombers to become more active or create more bombers is silly. |
