Militarized Police Now Using ‘TANKS’ (Armored Vehicles) to Pull Over Citizens On American Soil [View all]

[VScott]

Okay, the guy was a dumbass for flipping off the cops, but the cops took it too an
unnecessary level; that and the militarization of the police has gotten way out of control.

It is hard to imagine that this surreal story does not originate in a nation run by a violent warlord (or maybe it does), but it actually comes from Florida, where Lucas Jewell, a resident of Gainesville noticed local members of the Alachua County Sheriff’s Department were riding through town in a tank-like armored vehicle that appears to be a Lanco BearCat, an armored personnel carrier intended for military use.

As Mr. Jewell believes that this is a gross abuse of taxpayers’ dollars and is opposed to the militarization of police, he found this display of military hardware on public roads offensive and showed the individuals in riding in the tank his middle finger and proceeded to continue on his journey.
