Let me be perfectly clear: I totally support law enforcement and respect their loyalty and dedication “To Serve and Protect,” and for the many sacrifices they make.

But to be quite frank: Why do police today have to look like they are ready for a heavily-armed infantry combat patrol?

Surely the public knows what I mean, but at the same time we need not be scared shitless should we? Just asking.
