BLM Says Black Communities Are Being ‘Terrorized’ More Under Biden

It's actually an interesting article, if any of you bother to read it.  They're complaining about surplus military equipment being given to police departments around the country.  

"According to data from the Defense Logistics Agency analyzed by the Security Policy Reform Institute’s Stephen Semler, $34 million in military gear was transferred to police agencies in the first quarter of 2021, the highest number since the first quarter of 2020.

"In assessing the program last year, The Washington Post noted that most military surplus items obtained by local police agencies “are mundane items such as coffee makers, electrical wire and cargo containers.”


"It also reported that “rifles, helicopters and Mine-Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) vehicles” were also obtained."
