(978 posts)It was a collaborative effort. FBI, ATF and local law enforcement. They worked together. So if you hate the Boston Police you can spread some of the love in other directions.
And they didn't destroy the boat. At least to the point of leaving it a smoldering mess.
But I understand you about the cops. I'm more scared of the cops than the criminals. I have two that live behind me and both have big tempers and are ego maniacs. My dealings with the local police have not been pleasant. You're going about your business then walk into a situation and they yell at you like you're a little kid.
It happened to me last month when I tried to pick up my kid from school for a doctors appt. The cop comes barging out the front door and yelling "What are you doing here??!!!!!!!" I'm like, WTF? "The school is in lock down. Get out of here." I yelled back, "You don't have to yell at me about it." Jerks.
So yea, I think they are jerks. Of course, the holier than thou people on here will stick up for them. I think people packing heat (both cops and gun nuts) get a hard on from the power. Yea, yea, the holier than thou people will say, they are there for your protection. Whatever. Just don't look like someone they are after, you'll be in big trouble. So yea, the cops scare me.
