Dear 7:02
It is obvious you are a cop hater and an Edith Bunker AKA ding bat.
Hillary is your pick.

What "neighborhoods" then 7:29? I highly doubt police walk around in riot gear and use humvees while doing routine police work.

7:53 AM Well I guess, stupid is as stupid does... Clearly you didn't see the video or news article where they had bear-cats or aka MRAPS driving the streets and pulling people over and giving them traffic tickets!!!! I would say traffic tickets are routine police work!!!!

My neighborhood. See when they come to you they have the regular uniform on, when they come to me they have on mask and bulletproof vest and M4's

When the police are "militarized" like they have been doing for the last decade, then the militarized version of the police have to have an "enemy" to justify their militarization. The enemy is the public, criminal, or not. Everyone is a criminal, until they are done with you and determine that you are not. Not surprising that certain elements of the public are starting to consider the cops to be their enemy.

Some solutions are just new problems....

8:06 that has NEVER occurred. Not a single PD in America patrols in SWAT gear.

Instead of fighting over something that is irrelevant we should make sure the officers and govt have no reason not to we should make our communities what we need them to be for our children and the future of our freedom we need unity NOT separation we need to stop comparing us against each other and start building each other up! @unityforfuture

7:19 AM - What was meant was the people who hate cops think of cops as the bottom picture, not the top one. Sorry that it came off differently in your read. 7:02

Either of these options are there to enforce the law. It is not the police that I have a problem with per say. It is the laws that have been passed that strip away our rights. Its the justification that is used to make those laws. It is the courts that back those laws even though they are clearly unconstitutional. Only then at the end of all the corruption that passed those laws do we see the police having to act as a brute squad to enforce the laws. Why? Because people know that they are being screwed and they are not happy with it. Its not the police its the law makers. The police are simply doing the enforcing. If you want to beat somebody up by all means cut the snakes head off, go beat up a politician.

The issue is not what uniform these guys wear.

It is the Statutory Laws they enforce.

Common Law is Constitutional. Give us Common Law or none at all.

Learn the difference between the two types of law (jurisdiction).

Laws are for you to abide by , break them and smile for the camera.
I don't care how they dress , I don't break the law. The bottom picture should be prince street patrol , vine street patrol , church street patrol , oh hell all of salisbury.
