First things first. Before I get into my position on this you guys need to quite with the double standards for sourcing bullshit. You guys demand G-Fist cite sources that measure up to your subjective standards but then you make the following statements of fact to support your arguments for which you provide no sources whatsoever or completely unverifiable sources:
Obs: SWAT would need this to deal with a situation. Happens all the time.
Obs: You would probably be surpised how many times the bomb unit from swat is called out.
Rok: Both organizations have the sole purpose of fear mongering for dollars.
Sonya: I've heard from current military that they have a huge problem with criminal organizations
Obs: because any fucking idiot can buy a .50 sniper rifle.
The .50 BMG was banned in California in 2004 Obs. Who really needs to do their research? The .50 Caliber BMG Regulation Act of 2004 is a law in the state of California that effectively banned all .50 BMG-caliber rifles from being sold in the state. The law took effect on January 1, 2005. No new .50 cal rifles are legal in CA.
I realize we're talking about Indiana here but can I rightly assume your opinions are relevant to the state you live in, which is California? Your justification for allowing police to have MRAP's is based on 2 weapons that are completely NOT legal in this state. A .50 cal rifle and fully automatic weaponry.
I'm busy at work ATM but I will come back to this topic later this afternoon.
If you guys are going to demand sources for statements of fact that support a position then you need to start sourcing yours as well. All of them, not just the convenient ones.
