Quote:With all due respect, JIB, you clearly are just twisting my words and intent to make your non-sensical point. Whether there is an official quota or not, we all know that police are motivated by their higher ups, and they are motivated by elected officials to write tickets. The motivation is there, whether it's officail or not...

If you have to tackle a black male that you just approached I would call that using militarized style policing. It's definatley not community policing. But I know, you feel that shooting a guy point blank is justified. Whether you disagree with the verbiage I'm using or not, the fact remains. The way the police have been handling citizens can be seen as a militarized occupational force, not a peacekeeping relationship with the community.


I find it very fitting that you ignore these MAIN POINTS that I'm making in order to try and muddy the waters with definitions that really have no importance in regards to what I'm trying to express.

As for what equiptment I would define as such, I think of the gear and equiptment used during Ferguson.
