Militarized Police Response

[DGambler]

Serious question... where did all the armored vehicles come from and how did they get them there so quickly? Wouldn't people have reported on convoys heading into the city?

Also, who were the people patrolling exactly? National Guard or SWAT teams or someone else? How did they get there so quickly without people reporting on seeing them arrive?

They've been supplied to various municipalities and counties by homeland security.

The media was already pumping them up, as though the militarization has been worth it.

I wonder if anyone considers the bombing itself? I thought all of the militarization and forfeiture of rights was supposed to be a preemptive measure?

Also, watch these a$$clowns take credit for finding these 2. The reality is, it was not government cameras that caught them. It was the cameras from private businesses, and every day citizens. It just so happens that the event attracts a lot of video and camera footage. Still, the fk'rs will claim victory, and morons will clap and cheer.

Lastly, they will ignore technicalities like "miranda rights" so that they can force the American public to accept the label of "enemy combatant", and they can therefore set forth precedence on the NDAA, and say - see b!tches...good thing we got that legislation passed. Otherwise this terrorist would have walked free. Who didnt read the miranda rights? Oh yea - government... The cause of, and answer to, all life's problems.

To your question: Who gives a sh!t about police militarization. The military has been deployed now, and are "protecting" at sporting events now.
