My opinion in the simplest of terms:
If the IRS can be used to punish people that are doing nothing wrong, so can this. The more we give away for "safety" the more freedom we lose.
ABSOLUTELY NO.
Chris Dorner is a terrible example. How about how the police opened fired on two civillian vehicles who were delivering news papers because they though it was Chris Dorner? Hellfires would have done wonders there!
Are you looking for a more facist state?
Who decides to be judge jury and executioner? You?
NO NO NO.
@ArcticWarrior @Iassen Donov Oh I agree with you, Arctic. I think you got my point though. Perhaps posting it in the context of this article was wrong. The only reason I did is because I don't like having too many of these teams around the country. Maybe its hard to describe because I am not the most learned writer on the web.
At some point, there is too much force and then politicians and other corrupt officials take advantage of said teams. We all know a few cops who enjoy "bustin' heads" more than keeping the peace. I am not saying that is the norm at all and I would rather not see that being the norm, because the violence on "suspects" will become more acceptable.
Tyrants, usually, wield that kind of power.
@Iassen Donov Oh I dont have a problem with who they are. I just dont like the militarization of the police. War is one thing, but shooting "suspects" is never good. As citizens we should all be judged by a jury of our peers, wether they are Military, bus drivers, or corporate executives.
If you must know what I do for my country, I am in training to be a police officer myself. Unfortunately for me, my area its mostly "pro bono". Does that make it OK for me to have an opinion now?
Ah, the militarization of the Police.....
I am afraid these guys will have no problem shooting the general populace.
@KineticFury what do you mean?
Of topic, is the author of this one of the "Smurfs"?
Gonna stir the pot.
I am fine with one unit like this in the US, but we are militarizing our police too much.
That this book isn't being covered by the "Main stream media" is unbelievably frustrating.
Whatever happened to "Just the Facts, Ma'am, just the facts."?
Honest Journalism is dead.
I have seen and heard Brandon speak in interviews etc before and he is good at it, but Jack, man, you seem right at home doing this. I was impressed. I am sure we will see you on the national circuit (circus) soon.
You will have to clean up the beard, though. {sarcasm}
@ArcticWarrior @theAtrium Get a job ya bum!
Kidding, but where do you get the time in the middle of the day?
@RedWanderer I agree. The CIA, being what it is, will always be looked at as an untrustworthy organization because that's the nature of its work. At this point the CIA and the American people should be used to this. However, leaving NON-CIA personnel hanging out to dry for an election is a completely different problem and that should be scrutinized by the media as much as possible.
Unfortunately we have a media that has more in common with NAZI Germany than the Sons of Liberty.
@Nobackhand @JackMurphyRGR Using "Byzantine" to describe it is pretty damn creepy. The parallels are undeniable, though.
@JackMurphyRGR @Nobackhand Also let me add that I agree we SHOULD know what really happened there. Even if Brandon and Jack are doing it for purely good intentions, A LOT of people would agree with you if it were entirely the most vengeful of reasons ( I DO).
No one should die because a jackass was trying to get re-elected and cover his ass.
Again, watch your ass.
@JackMurphyRGR @Nobackhand I agree with Nobackhand on this one. Also, I hate to say it, but its going to look like Brandon (along with Jack) is doing this for revenge. In the political world it will be spun that way.
Watch your asses.
Only knew him through his book and the videos on TV and the web.
I am speechless. I will pray for his family.
Death is too good for his murderer.
@BrandonWebb Yeah, a relative of mine has one, and I was looking at it as an alternative to the standard AR since the Sig is a little more lefty friendly "out of the box".
I borrowed it to give it a run. I tried shooting the cheapest, crappiest ammo I could find just to make sure it could use anything (Tula in this case) but it would fail to eject on every third round. To be honest, I didn't mess with the adjustable gas piston settings, so I wasn't completely thorough but was still disappointed.
@DieHardDeuce I bet you dollars to donuts the FDR administration didn't look at the election fraud for the same reason the black panthers weren't looked at today.
I think I have heard only one person ever mention the Battle of Athens.
If you don't know what that was, you are not alone. Google it when you have 5 min.
They dont teach it in public school.
