🇺🇸 Deadly Force: Arming America's Police | Fault Lines
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 ส.ค. 2024
- US police forces are increasingly using military-style tactics to carry out even the most routine daily operations.
The number of SWAT teams and SWAT-style raids across the county have skyrocketed in the last few decades. SWAT raids occur at an estimated 50,000 raids per year and a majority take place for low-level crimes.
It is a trend that is being propped up by billions of federal dollars in Homeland Security grants and access to free military equipment through the Department of Defense for civilian law enforcement agencies.
In the past, police SWAT teams were only used in extreme circumstances; today, they are increasingly sent out to perform routine tasks.
Nowadays, there are tens of thousands of military-style police raids every year. But only the worst cases make the news.
Fault Lines travels to California and Tennessee to look at the effects of the increasing militarisation of US police departments.

We as a people are in serious trouble.
Since , we was born
We are safe they* say
Big time
When policemen break the law, then there is no law, just a fight for survival, billy jack!
It's pretty scary. Giving too much power to the police is ALWAYS a bad idea.
@Vista Danza if you comply with police you wont die as simple as that
@Vista Danza the talking husky is nothing but a racist white boy. the white Community is not under attack in America by white racist police communities of color are particularly the black community.. he's a racist white boy and he's talking about black people under attack.. we're supposed to be adaptable and compliant to White racism.. simple racist white boy think we're back in slavery days
Not really///... who's you gone a call when you're in troubles,911???
Not this "citizens with a guns"
@Vista Danza You're so confused
if they'd actually hold them accountable for the b.s. they do and not only that but hold the ones giving the orders accountable for it then it would stop. until then we gonna get the boot.
11:16 "Search warrants." Yep last year over 75% of all SWAT usage was to serve search warrants. Think about that... We essentially have soldiers serving warrants.
it is insanity who wants to live horror show of fake freedom
Not actually, it was to serve *drug* search warrants. Yes, I know where you got this, but there seems to be a little embellishing going on. They are not soldiers, if you want military acting as police, look up how Russian "police" deal with barricaded suspects. Not exactly the same thing, eh?
Also, SandraClark, we are not in a state of martial law. Look it up, people with guns raiding and barbed wire on beaches and nightly blackouts are not the same thing. Trust me, you would know if we were.
“No knock” warrants should only be used in the most extreme cases. If you barge into someone’s home looking like you’re going to war, you’re going to get one. If a couple guys in button up shirts with ID badges knock on the door, maybe they’d be able to secure the occupants of the home by, you know - talking.
Edit: I am not so naive to think that simple ‘knock n talks’ would work every time. But I think cops should complete a risk assessment prior to executing search warrants. Weigh the pros and cons of the various operational tactics at their disposal, and try to choose the one that’s safest for everyone involved - not just the police.
My sister almost died in a SWAT raid. She woke up with a gun in her face. Police had been called on a couple arguing next door and they got the address wrong.
There was no need for SWAT to respond to a domestic dispute with such force. It was one of those teeny tiny towns that doesn't need a SWAT team, but since they had the toys, they felt like using them.
In the same town, the police refused to visit the scene of a burglary when my friend reported it. They are not interested in solving crimes. They are interested in using toys. The results are deadly.
KILLERS WITH BADGES, BUT WHAT WOULD WE DO WITH OUT THEM TO "PROTECT" US FROM THESE "DANGEROUS" POT SMOKERS???
Barret Norcross so BIZZARE BUT I WILL SAY GOD WILL HAVE HIS VENGEANCE MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS... HE WILL COME BACK SOON AND THEY WILL PAY THEY WILL FEE HIS WRATH
We need them if a guy is on top of you trying to kill you and a police officer sees that he will probably shoot him for you
This is the Antelope Valley area NE Los Angeles County, I live in fear everyday with LA County Sheriffs, as a Sr.citizen we are at their mercy. When I'd call the sheriffs to protect me, they were too busy to be bothered. If there is no money for them to steal from us they ignore citizens. It's all about money and drugs. what a shame this has happened to America. WE must have another Revolution to Restore our RIGHTS. BUT here we are now, told we must stay home or face arrest. America locked down. Remember 1776 when we had the guts to stand up and fight for JUSTICE. SHAME
So true we need a revolution
As long as the revolution is for justice, not your personal freedom.......
Those are high school teenagers with delusions of grandeur and given too much authority/power.
I know a few of those, unfortunatley.
Policemen geared up like militaries would confuse regular civilians and provoke back fire as the civilian in stress would think he/she was assaulted by the bunch of armed thugs
@Daniel Natale what you hear is loud pounding and a bunch of muffled yelling
@@raymonds7492 Military soldiers don't wear police patches, nor S.W.A.T patches.
@@TheSamsOutdoors that's the point
@Daniel Natale Anyone can go to fancy dress and look like Police. Noise and lights and you can house invade. Too easy. No doubt the wrong people are aware of this trick.
@Daniel Natale Any bunch of thugs can shout POLICE or SEARCH WARRANT - Also, if a police officer knocks/bangs on your door and shouts POLICE or OPEN UP, they are supposed to give you reasonable time to comply with that instruction. It is quite clear from actual footage of real events that they only wait a couple of seconds at most before smashing the door down and piling into some poor bastards house. If you are in bed at night, a couple of seconds does not even give a person chance to wake up and comprehend what is happening, let alone get out of bed, get dressed and answer the door.
They got all the protection and still shoot People with no guns .
These are not the police. Little boys with killer toys.
@@minnowpd I don't get your statement. They AREN'T "little boys," and they ARE Police! ????
Do not protect delinquents, Instead look for , truth
my neighbor got raided while they were sleeping, they're good people and they had a guard dog and two babies the cops broke into the house the guard dog went to protect the family and was shot and killed the cops destroyed thousands of dollars worth of things in the home they found nothing and apologized to the family and left they went to court and only got 2500 hundred dollars for the damage and no one was a rested for killing the dog..
Unbelievable. Those babies could have been killed, too.
A nation at war with itself cannot not survive .
Coming next. :. SWAT teams deployed for parking tickets not being paid in time
Coming to a neighborhood near you. Keep watching others thinking they deserved whatever happened to them. You will soon cry wondering why this happened to me.
Amen!!!
I am a 29 yr old w/m from Boston.. Bostonian through and through I love everything about my city well close to it..lets not over due it..I also come from a "blue" law enforcement/multi branch military/Educated in every sense of the American criminal justice our system of laws from state to federal. Ever since I was old enough for my father and uncles to send me to the fridge to grab another cold one and partially understand I have been surrounded by fam/friends all they had to do was whistle as long as I kept the beers flowing for them I was able to stay up all night. Naturally as I grew there wasn't a career path I even thought about for other possible consideration, I was "groomed" and my uncles new this swat VC/Robbery,homicide cannot forget the war on Drugs many top level detectives who eat breathe sleep police work. So i wanted to learn as much as I could, train as much as possible be the best , win the fight every fight and do it right, the foot pursuits and every police officers favorite.. the high speed vehicle pursuit with a text book PIT maneuver when the right or most of the time the wrong opportunity presented itself. This Doc. couldn't have hit its mark any clearer. I stand for law enforcement 110% but before that I stand for my fellow human. The escalation is getting worse there is needless spending as well as everyone's favorite a little something called civil asset forfeiture its really nice. I tell you one thing in these times yes..teams like this are a very necessary tool but we need to reevaluate the whole entire system we need a reasonable competent administration that can relate with the 99 percent of us and get our whole government starting with healthcare followed by the criminally justice system and its resources the money we dump over seas while we need serious funding for resources back home. Could you imagine the trillions we have poured into Afghanistan and Iraq meanwhile im on the side of the road helping another American change a tire from hitting a 1'2" pothole on from winter 2014. I'm buzzed and ranting a little here but this piece spoke volumes to me.Lets start helping each other out if your a cop with rank and the ability to fire immoral incompetent indecent indecisive power hungry trigger happy officers pull them and everyone as a whole just slow down and be good to one and other the way things are going I think were in some serious fkn trouble.We are the proudest absolutely richest most powerful nation made up of a melting pot of the smartest most beautiful people inside and out lets get it together.. .that is it i'm done great piece @aljazeera
Thank you Brady!
Sometimes small things turn out to be significant. When I served in the US Marines (MEU/SOC), my unit was tasked to train with either the LAPD or LA Sheriffs Dept. It was "joint training", where we would learn more about urban combat and the police would learn to employ military tactics. Fortunately, I was able to avoid that duty, but while at my Dad's home that weekend (in LA), we saw our Marine CH46 helicopters flying into downtown Los Angeles from my Dad's back yard. I remember explaining to my family that that was my unit in a joint training exercise with the police. That was in either 1988 or 1989. This is something that should NOT be happening in America. Take that from someone who has had the unfortunate experience if looking down the barrel of a rifle at men, women, and children, of all ages.
I don't think that most of us want that in America. Next step, lethal police drones.
I support militarizing police. The country is getting more dangerous every year. But if they make a mistake. They should be held accountable. Pay for damages & prosecute anyone who unjustly killed a man.
If the force that is supposed to protect you actually sees you as a threat then it's gone very wrong. It's like they see everyone around their team as a threat, forgetting that their job is to serve and protect!
Totally agree. And that first sentence I must remember, because it's perfectly stated.
I think he forgets to mention they're also supplying them with bayonets.
Who's giving who bayonets? Or are you just lying?
Wtf
Those dam cops know they murdered that dam old man for nothing. So sad
police breaking into peoples house are surprised when they get shot at. They also yell over eachother so much you can't hear anything they are saying
They have search warrants. If the Police are breaking into your house, they've got a reason. If you dont resist, you wont get shot.
@@TheSamsOutdoors Yeah unless they go to the wrong house like several of the people in this video. Not to mention that most of these situations are over drug raids which are victimless crimes. And of course we all remember about a year ago when the police in Houston falsified information in order to obtain a warrant that turned out to be complete and utter bullshit resulting in the deaths of a man, his wife and his dog and several of the officers being shot over absolutely nothing. If you don't see a problem with this then you should probably be wearing a helmet to do simple day to day tasks.
That's how they get away with killing you for defying a command!!!
@@TheSamsOutdoors Your reply is so stupid I don't know why I'm even responding to an idiot like you.
Expansion of SWAT actions had been expanding for some time before the reuse of military equipment program. The perceived need and desire for SWAT action is the bigger problem.
The truth of the matter is that with intense militarization of the police force they have changed the mindset of the police objective. A police force is supposed to look at ARRESTING whereas a military group looks at KILLING. This is why the RCMP gave anti-terrorist duty up and over to JTF2, it was because they didn't want to change their objective of arresting suspects.
The police acted in self defense, yet the city paid millions of dollars to the family’s.. why pay millions of dollars to the suspects family’s if the officers did no wrong?? Yeah, exactly.. smh
Erbody getting shot up! The dog! Little Debbie! Mama bear! Did that gold fish just make a sudden movement? BAM.
@Vista Danza But but... the police don't want a war... because that's kinda like... their job....
@Vista Danza not going to happen the police are literally saving lifes and fools that hate police tell lies to make the police sound evil
@@davidaguilarg.7093 You're going to defend them right up until they come for you, aren't you... Maybe even then, like the battered wife who falsely believes it's her fault her husband hits her... 😥
No knock search warrants should be illegal.
Human Trafficking and State Sponsored Terrorism. Charges should be filed in World Criminal Court and The Haig for Human Trafficking and State Sponsored Terrorism.
They basicly did a gangland type murder on that Marine protecting his family. What ever happened to saying "drop the weapon"? Some of these cops are yellow to the corps. They see a mouse move and they throw a grenade. As a fellow Marine myself I find myself disgusted at what is happening. Bottom line, it will come down to Us against THEM. Time to close the police departments down, and reevaluate our law enforcement needs. Not ALL situation are as dangerous as they want them to be. Please, can't we all just get along. So sick of war mongering, I thought I left all that in the middle East. Now I know what those people felt and went through. NO US CITIZEN SHOULD HAVE TO FEEL UNSAFE FROM THE POLICE, EVER. Semper fi Earthling, stay safe out there.
What percentage have military training already and are veterans? When your trained "shoot to kill" and done 3 or 4 tours old habits die hard.
Police units hire them on purpose. And many of the cop training programs have been designed and are owned by ex-military. Go figure!
I read somewhere that some of 'em go to Israel to train with their military.
very good stuff al jazeera! but i dont find the equipment probematic, the mindset of those officers is the problem!
Your missing a key point, son. The equipment sets and creates the mind set! It's a power trip for those who have only 6 months education to be a cop. It gives them a power high since they aren't trained or educated for any other type of career!
Saying a mine resistant truck is no different than your gun it's like saying your gun is the same as an M1 Abrams
Police departments hire vets who still love a good firefight. Change your hiring practices.
Their every violation is the capital crime of Sedition (look it up) and merits the capital punishment that legitimate government can impose. Their ability to avoid justice indicates the scope of their criminality in the government agencies.
The Sedition Act was repealed in 1920
Young men, raised on violent movies, now in battle gear, eager to indulge their passions.
When a country has raped and pillaged outside of its borders and has eliminated its"enemies" they turn their guns inward to their own population. This has been going on for thousands of years and the outcome is always the same. The population gets tired of the abuse and fights back, either actively or passively through work slowdowns or stoppages.
FOLLOW LAWFUL ORDERS OF YOUR POLICE, AND LIVE TO SEE ANOTHER DAY.
duane howard you must live in a very different America than I do.
This is incredibly sad that their has been a loss of innocent life. I feel awful for the families and I hope that their is an inquiry as to why this is still occurring in 2021.
We live in an America I don’t recognize, at 70 what has happened to these thugs Being allowed into law enforcement ?
If police treat every scenario as a "war", the citizens should too.
The police don't though.
I'm in tears, no one should go through this. Unbelievable
problem is that police recruits from former military. totally wrong. we need peace officers, not trained killers
I’ve lived in australia for the past 25 years I have never seen a armoured vehicle. I have never seen a rifle. Cops here only have smith and westerns or glocks and use them once in a blue moon.
Asking for a friend.....do you have 2 million immigrants coming from Somalia, Venezuela, and hundreds of other violent countries that bring the cultural backgrounds with them to your country every year like we do here in America???
@@rer509 Look at the name of the person who posted the comment. There's a large number of immigrants in Austrailia and there are even protests against it, specially against muslim immigration. Hate crimes are on the rise and all but yet you don't see this kind of policing. The woman in the video is white which is obvious you didn't is watch. My question to you is what does the policing style of law enforement have to do with immigration. Should Police now change to a more aggressive policing style just because of increasing immigration? What exactly are you trying to express in your comment?
id rather the police have ar15s than sling shots when they need them
James Fallon me too
i love how this ins't an american company but its a foreign company when they have no idea how bad situations can get.
An 80 yr old man lying in his bed is not a threat to anyone and there is no "standard" procedure that should allow his murder. There needs to be less reliance on guns in the States to solve problems. Whatever happened to the police negotiators? Whatever happened to treating others like human beings?
man that's how the OJ simpson case was bungled. the cops moved the body and the gun before investigators got to the scene to make it look like a justifiable shooting when in fact it really wasn't. to me every cop is a potential killer with a badge and must not be trusted too much. whenever i encounter cops i just play it all by ear, be nice and respectful (because if you give respect you'll get respect in return), don't do anything to alarm them to where they end up pulling their guns by keeping your hands visible at all times.
I find this sickening. When you see our allies' local or national SWAT teams, they are extremely professional, more often than not they end up arresting the people rather than shooting them. These local PD SWAT teams are often than not, a bunch of patrol officers that plays SWAT when they are called. The FBI HRT, SAS, GIGN, GSG9 and other Counter Terrorist teams that I have met have extremely different mentalities. Now there are some good SWAT teams out there, but as I said more often than not most teams out here in the states are pretend play SWAT teams whose members are not military SF trained, unlike the examples that I mentioned.
This sounds like the cops murdered him and then staged the scene to make it look justified, Almost like an assassination. The Trailer Park i'm talking about.
IT IS MURDER BY COP...AGAIN!!!

Carrying so much equipment, they can’t get up the train steps without tripping. These guys are gonna kill each other!
Is there any question why police are being looked down on and being taken out by some people?
In a world where people do not give a shit until it happens to them, we still wonder why bad things happen? Sad.
This kind of stuff does happen in Australia except our cops don't use SWAT teams armed with MP5s, AR15s/M16s and MRAPS we use riot squads armed with glocks and four wheel drives. We do have SWAT like tactical police units in Australia but they're the last resort.
And so does in my country
The program begins at the top of the Depts, it depends on the orders that flow down as to what kind of Dept that it become.😢
Over Kill
Disgrace to Law Enforcement !
The USA should reduce the amount of $ they spend on the military
I used to think before whats the deal with Americas fascination for military and guns, now i understand that its a huge business $$$, all the black market trades, fought wars, US economy depends on this field.
It will never happen because it's labeled as a National Defense Strategy ..... Out spend everyone and stay ahead of the game , the military industrial complex is the cause of this , weopens development , and programs cost billions
Who protects the people from the police
Joey Vattoli The people
Who is really paying the price? .......criminals and their families. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
"shoot first, ask question later" US seemed to like that idea.
steve tak kin kwan they just shoot.. no questions after ,your fukn dead
🙏 thank you for your video. I don’t live in an authoritarian prison. It’s supposed to be a democratic government. I’m not sure what dimension I’ve been living in though, but, this one has a good bit of brutishness in it. Nothing more imposing than a big truck “armored”, parked on your lawn. Hey I’m into recycling and I’m glad the military is just giving our police force free “military” equipment. With out any regard for the use of it against us. I remember when the police had raided 50,000 people in their lives over all America. We as a divided people are in no position to stand up to our police. The police program of see something say something thing has planted a virus in our minds that our fellow citizens are crazy drug dealing people and need to be eliminated by them, okay, I added that part. Bottom line is that you cannot give the keys to a jet to an untrained person. That goes for “military” equipment too. I’m sure people here aren’t going to see the value of recycling equipment to the police. They see and hear a bunch of people in military gears screaming and shooting at them. They are not sure if they are going to die for nothing. They see invaders. We have a right to self preservation and they have no problem with killing people who don’t comply with their demands. I’m sorry for us citizens, if we could only rise above this madness, before it kills us all...
Eye opening video.Very informative.
imagine of someone bangs on your door at 2 am. you pick up your gun and look. just soo happens it's your local PD. Nd you get gunned down because you are now a threat... double edged sword
4:00 that poor women! This is why we shouldn't have militarization of police! I understand the job is dangerous but police know what they're getting into!! Also these police who arrested their son with a MMJ card!!?? These so called enforcement officers are truly scum
Nelson you are right. People who want to be police cannot be scary individuals who depend on gun to do their every duties. Some are not called but want the salary and privileges. This is sad and Jesus need to return soon.
The Amish case is frightening...with a grotesque nuance.
WTF, they shot an old man then lied about the shooting.
Those types of reports are actually common.
People need to take charge its gone on too long
The empire always comes home eventually.
When will Americans learn you have rights until the government decides you don't? And until Americans take up arms and fight back against our tyranical government we have only ourselves to blame
In relation to what the first woman said about the gun should not have been moved. Surely this is just where they would have kicked it out of his hand(assuming he had it of course). I cannot imagine a potentially dangerous suspect would be left with the weapon , even if he was expected to be dead.
Thanks to W. Bush...he is the 1 responsible 4 creating this department..."homeland security"
Don't let your 5y/o kids play with a toy gun, these trigger nuts might kill him.
I also thought there was a ruling that MRAPS can't be used for Riot suppression but i've seen them been used.
That moment your cat jumps on your desk and slams her head on the play button and then "Don't Stop Believing" by Journey plays while the cops breach, I thought that was the video tbh
And cops wonder why we hate them?
It's necessary to prevent cops from being killed during those raids.Drugs equal guns
Police equal unjustified murder and slavory.
Why not just knock and announce? Is it really worth risking lives because someone who already has a case against them might flush some drugs? Why not cut the water, and wait them out?
Your states national guard is there to defend you, the police is there to protect and serve.
Police are here to "Serve and Protect" us...IS THAT A JOKE???
Duplication all the way for gain.
I see no problem with the police needed to be better armed. We live in a very violent society.
MooseHead well said, people in these comments are horrible without officers the world would look like fire
@@Xatco- Fire, you mean like the lethal house fire those officers caused? Oh yeah sure...
Köt Amin dude it’s been a year since I commented get a life and yeah I agree swat should be deployed to situations like these. If they cause the fire it’s their fault, but it’s like about the same rate as a black man getting shot by cops, every few months it’s not a common occurrence
@@Xatco- (boring Sunday afternoon hungover scrolling down YT comments... sorry haha)
Just like I agree that there are situations where SWAT teams are essential and save lives. Sure, it's not to say they shoot everything that moves, they do go through training and I think most of them are professional - but still, even those aren't frequent occurrences, don't you think the fact that these innocent people were harmed or killed for no reason by the very same people that are supposed to protect them is extremely problematic? Not to mention the cover-up right after? These are almost mafia-like methods.
And even if those killings don't occur often, there is something disturbing about such a military presence in the everyday life. I'm not sure it makes people feel safer on the contrary. The psychological effect on the population is more one of fear and paranoia...
You are part of the problem.
Wow burned their house down and burned a innocent man alive and I'm sure it was justifyed. A dead cop is a good cop
"A dead cop is a good cop"? Really dude, are you seriously saying that cops should die because of the actions of a few?
Straight out of Afghanistan to the local police and they have a kill or be killed mind set
Jay Lewis , good mind set .
If you shoot and kill a police officer that breaks into your house (or property) without probable cause I say BRAVO!
Smo Key why?
Here’s a little bit of advice, if you don’t commit crimes, you won’t be punished
The methods of policing in the u.s. has gone passed civilised behavior. It is high time the police see themselves as protectors other than executioner. I have come to know that right across the world in every jurisdiction professional employed by government agencies will act in support to cover up for their colleagues. Even doctors, politicians do this. It's refers to as closing ranks, meaning everything possible that can be found to safeguard and protect their colleague is done. From as high up as the DA all the way down will support the circumventing of standard good standard good old policing. But by following proper standard procedures this can can open them up to being dismissed, charged and sent to prison.
Arm yourselves! Take measures to secure your homes!
Plant Claymore`s in your yard and at the Door
Probably... Just probably, officials and specially their financial backers during elections are aware of the fact, that globalization (Export of Jobs for the import of cheap goods and multinational corporations with tax evation strategys) and automatization, paired with our boom and bust economys, PLUS class and racial seperation in the US means civil war times are near. Just probably.
Other than that I would be enough for several countys to share one or two SWAT teams. Like thoose Ambulance Busses. If SHTF, they can order them from their neighbours.
I don't see another use for all this gear but using it against civilians and civilrights leaders personally, protesting all that what I have written above.
Land of the free...
Same weapons as military, same armor, & same tactics develops same tactical responses, and "us vs them" mentality. Except in this case the enemy is civilians and most of the tactics ends in death to the "enemy"! They shoot until there is no longer any threat , aka "moving", (or they run out of ammo)! In a lot of cases body cameras on police are only as good a witness as they want it to be! You cannot rely on civilian cameras as they are usually kept a good distance from the scene or are so nervous that it becomes very hard to hold camera still & on target! If law officer tells you to stop filming him, that's a sure sign that he wants his actions to be in total anonymity! Heaven forbid the "enemy" gets you on film! That could mean accountability! I'm 70 years old and have seen these types of actions develop over a long period of time but it quickly accelerated following creation of Homeland Security (which is a oxymoron if I ever heard one)! After twin towers I started thanking all forms of authority for their service, not just soldiers but in the last decade I have taken a back step to just thanking soldiers. I firmly believe that the towers went down because the shadow government was orchestrated it! They needed an event like Pearl Harbor to rally public support for starting a series of wars. At more than a decade of fighting terrorists and a lot of good soldiers dying unnecessarily I now think that rally point no longer holds water! The military industry that profits from selling our military more and more weapons of war wants perpetual war!! Yes sir, keep that golden egg-laying goose well fed and happy!
P.S. it's not lost on me that this video is published by Al Jazeera!
But many times they aren't after the cartels, just there own citizens, the constitution they swore an oath too, is now disregarded, when you give up rights for security , you lose all your rights with nningmo possibility of ever having them restored
alex jones has been saying this for years
Defund Immediately
if the crimes their stopping don't carry a death sentence then why are we going in with the intent of giving a death sentence by shooting before even arresting?
this is what happens when guns are so wide spread. The police end up getting even better armed.
and more 'trained', paranoid and aggressive.
Grinnz so you want us all not to have any guns and only the police.
lol i posted this 2 years ago.
I enjoy protecting myself but if you don't please the door to third world mayhem is right here
As long as USC can have the same types of weapons regardless if they have felonies or not, I care not.
see, we should just let the government have all the guns....they will protect us. I don't understand why people aren't outraged that the swat guys carry an MP5 but it would take a team of attorneys for a civilian to legally buy one, plus about 100 grand.
Maybe you don't realize, civillians have access to plenty of firepower. Police should have the same access. If the Las Vegas Shooter can use all of the guns and magazines he used to kill, then the officers that respond need superior firepower.
Should give the police all the equipment they need. So what if they look like soldiers.
Maybe don't give the police a reason to come raid your house, just saying
Mike w say that to Tanja who was raided yet they found nothing and they killed her dad. Just saying.
So how does one make it so that the police could never mistakenly turn up at your house? When a tactical aid unit turned up at my house looking for some drug dealer it turned out they'd gone to longton instead of Langton avenue
LMAO
Sue the officers and the chief of police!
Mike w Did you even watch this video, you really think that the police need a reason to do this? It happens all the time wrong house, no drugs or just because, wake up it could be you next.
So the military industrial complex is also known as the police industrial complex
The only way this will stop is to make the officers who do this type of unconstitutional trade financially responsible.
We Are Going to Stop this Hate on the People.
Protect & serve not killing innocent lives
Welcome to the good all usa!!!!!!!
1776........police...state....make cop back to normal...if not vote local politicians out of office.
Someone shoots at you, you have 2 choices: die or fire back.
Alex Horky guess your a lousy shot then huh?
Duane Elliott What's your rule for an 80 year old man lying in his bed?
either you never seen/used a gun or you don't know how bad a situation is when it involves guns, don't think about movies, in real life having gun against these guys is death for sure....they are out to kill best chance is to stick to the ground with hand in air. as you won't have a sharp aim and they will be wearing Kevlar and pads while your shirt won't protect you when they start firing and never stop.....I have faced a burglary in my home, the best way is to use psychology when someone already has a gun pointed at your face.
@@Reckless-mindfulness - That is obvious. The decision, is whether or not to take a couple of them out before you die, if you can, or just surrender and get shot in your bed for doing nothing or shot in the back.
SWAT TEAMS SHOULD ONLY BE USED FOR ACTIVE SHOOTER AND HOSTAGE SITUATIONS AND ANYTHING RELATED TO THOSE, AS WELL AS BE USED FOR INCIDENTS LIKE THE 1997 NORTH HOLLYWOOD SHOOTOUT WHERE YOU HAVE 1 OR MORE BAD GUYS ARMED WITH AK-47s. otherwise why even use SWAT for daily routine operations?
