    LA school district decides to return grenade launchers in face of public outcry

    L.A. school cops will return grenade launchers, keep M16s and military vehicle

    L.A.'s top school-district cop says his department will return the grenade launchers they borrowed from the Pentagon, but will hold on to the M16 assault rifles and the military-grade armored vehicle...just in case.

    “We at the Los Angeles School Police Department would not utilize [grenade launchers] within a school environment,” Police Chief Steve Zipperman, head of the Los Angeles School Police Department, told Fusion in a statement. The three grenade launchers “will be removed from our equipment inventory,” he said.
    The 1033 program is not a "borrowing" program. The school district PAID for the surplus. Who's signature was one the purchase agreement for the grenade launchers and WHY is that person not explaining how brilliant their decision was when they put pen to paper?

    Come on, that's just not fair. They could've at least let the LAPSD keep the Grenade Launchers to use as t-shirt cannons.

    In a sense the propety is indeed borrowed; the habendum clause is certainly restrictive.

    'We endorse the idea of voluntarism; self-responsibility: Family, friends, and churches to solve problems, rather than saying that some monolithic government is going to make you take care of yourself and be a better person. It's a preposterous notion: It never worked, it never will. The government can't make you a better person; it can't make you follow good habits.' - Ron Paul 1988

    I see that in your State of MO document, but I find no similar language in the USC or the 1033 Administrative Instruction.

    Not that it particularly matters. The program is offensive as-is.
