This shows exactly why the "less lethal" thing that the Ferguson cops are getting is retarded.



These guys don't stop to put a goofy aluminum ball on the end of their piece, they just empty half a magazine into the guy, plant some evidence and call it good.

Can't wait for death by gummi ball.

I believe all of them were armed, but it was similar to the National Guard guys you see in New York City at places like the Port Authority Bust Terminal or Penn Station. They only have a handgun and three or four spare magazines, which they keep holstered when they're not preparing to use it. Generally the National Guard guys in NYC spend most of their time chatting and giving directions to tourists, though they get antsy if you stare at them too much.

Likewise, the ones in Ferguson were only armed with handguns at the most and kept them holstered. Because they knew they didn't need guns.

I don't even know why I'm quoting this from a whole page ago but whatever. They had M4s, M9s, and riot batons. So rifles, pistols and melee weapons. They also used armored vehicles an wore body armor.

This is a really bad thread imo

I'm laughing at you if you read more than one page to arrive at this conclusion.

Since this is debate and discussion, why don't you post your opinion and some evidence as to why you think it is a bad thread? Give us something to talk about, rather than your bullshit bad thread reply.

Edit: Actually, do us a favor and don't post anymore.

Rude.

LAPD to roll out 7000 Body Cameras.

http://time.com/4013835/lapd-body-camera-program/

The first of 7,000 cams will be deployed next week


The Los Angeles Police Department will begin rolling out body cameras next month, the first stage of a program that will eventually become the largest in the U.S.

The LAPD, which has been studying the technology for two years, will begin introducing the first batch of a total of 7,000 cameras next week, according to the LA Times. The first 860 cameras, paid for by private donations of around $1.5 million, will be gradually deployed over the next month. The program will make the police department the biggest law enforcement agency to widely adopt the technology.

Gimme gimme I want one for free
