Militarizating US Police is NO accident: "I can hire half the working class to kill the other half" [View all]
"Frequently attributed to RR Baron Jay Gould, in the context of strikebreaking activities during the Great Southwest Railroad Strike of 1886." http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Jay_Gould
Apparently nothing much has changed since 1886.
How much more obvious could this be? Not much IMHO. Greedy over-weened capitalists have been working pretty much openly for over a hundred years towards the gradual enslavement of We the People.
This is nothing other than highway robbery of an entire nation in broad daylight via the creeping incremental hyper-militarization of local police forces to the point of absurdity, all pointing towards the gruesome end result articulated by Mr. Gould 128 years ago -- all in service to the 1%.
This ^^ ruthless ^^ heartless ^^ strategy ^^ by our super-wealthy uber-greedy Oligarchs has not changed one whit in the last 128 years, only the means have been exponentially expanded & heightened by many technological advances in weaponry and such.
