WND reported last month New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie signed into law a bill that bans local law-enforcement agencies from obtaining nightscopes, military assault rifles, grenade launchers and 14-ton Mine-Resistant Ambush-Protected vehicles through a federal program without local oversight.
The issue drew national attention when law-enforcement officers in Ferguson, Missouri, outfitted like an invading army, were deployed against violent protesters outraged by the shooting death of black teen Michael Brown by a white police officer.
Now, according to the Tenth Amendment Center, Montana’s governor has signed into law a bill that “would heavily diminish the effect of federal programs that militarize local police.”
The bill, HB330, bans state or local law enforcement from receiving significant classes of military equipment from the Pentagon’s “1033 Program.”
It was approved 46-1 in the state Senate and 79-20 in the House. Democrat Gov. Steve Bullock signed it.

We might just be needing them down here on the shore...not to attack American citizens, but to defend us against those who don't want anything to do with America's values or the system that upholds them.

I agree.its a sad world we live in.be nice to go back to being cordial with LEO and likewise for them. Remember YOU attract allot more flies with honey then feces. Apparently these thugs prefer feces, but army men you should not be. Its not a good image and against the constitution in my book. Appears some towns are now occupied by small standing Armies!! Slippery slope for us all.
