There have been postings on past threads regarding the types of weapons that citizens should or should not be allowed to own.
One of the responses was that citizens should be able to own whatever weapon that the military has so the military cannot over run citizens. To me, that is ridiculous. Would you ver envision citizens being allowed to own grenade launchers, shoulder fired missiles, or cluster bombs?
Police do need armored personnel carriers at times and high powered rifles, automatic weapons, etc in some circumstances.
Basically, in Ferguson, the police have done a Keystone Kops routine. The right hand does not know what the left is doing at the same time.
