Coming to a para-military police department near you

These vehicles will now be used against US citizens. With free access to the internet & sites like YouTube we've seen hundreds of videos of police brutality, proved that they're liars when protecting one of their own, the citizens have exposed cops for the vicious criminals that they are. Now the feds have amped up their power hungry attitudes by giving them shit that was never designed for domestic use.......

Dallas County Sheriff’s Department Spokeswoman Carmen Castro told TheBlaze in an email that the vehicle will be “an efficient way to ensure that deputies are prepared if and when a dangerous situation arises.”

“It’s acquisition is a great way to put a special tactical vehicle to use on domestic ground,” she added. “The vehicle was obtained at no cost to tax payers [sic].”


The Dallas County Sheriffs Department acquired a military vehicle designed for overseas combat earlier this month.

Dallas County sheriff’s deputies traveled to Fort Hood earlier this month to pick up a MaxxPro MRAP (Mine-Resistant Ambush Protected) vehicle, according to the Dallas Observer.

“The International® MaxxPro is Navistar Defence’s Mine Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) vehicle and incorporates the latest design in armoring technology,” according to the Navistar website. “Extensively tested by the military and used in theater today, the MaxxPro features a V-shaped hull and other design features that greatly improve survivability.”

“The MaxxPro MRAP is built to withstand ballistic arms fire, mine blasts, IEDs, and other emerging threats,” the website continues. “Its V-shaped hull helps deflect blasts out and away from the crew and its armoring can be customized to meet any mission requirement.”

“With so much protection, it’s the vehicle that every crew wants when they’re out in the field,” it adds.

The police department was able to get their hands on the $600,000 vehicle with 10,000 miles for nothing. According to the Dallas Observer, the Department of Defense was had no use for the vehicles and has given them to local police departments instead of letting them collect dust in warehouses.

A spokesperson for the Dallas County Sheriff’s Department was not immediately available for comment to TheBlaze Saturday morning. However, Chief Deputy Marlin Suell did comment on how his department will theoretically use the vehicle.

“Having a tactical vehicle will not only provide warrants execution with the equipment to assist in performing their jobs but will provide an overall safety arch,” Suell reportedly wrote to commissioners.

More toys for boys ... who weren't up for the military but like to play soldier. What a worthless piece of crap that has absolutely no practical value to any reasonable civilian police force.

I would comment, however, it wouldn't be appropriate.

I'll just say that I don't approve of kitting up a g'damn local police station the same way you do a military expeditionary force.

reminds me of the cop from my hometown a couple of years ago ... he swears he was shooting at a flying saucer. he couldn't bring it down ... maybe he needed more fire power. looks like now help is at hand.

:angrymod: Just like the Feds, reducing all responsibility to the local level..
except, the failed drug war.
units like that locally will equal local "Waco" type activities. Scary stuff.

Surely those machines could 'stand-by' at sporting events! :noway: jpt

I like how they point out they got it at no cost to taxpayers. Uh, hate to break that bubble, but they got it from the Feds, who spent our tax dollars on it.

I've heard of these.

These are those Nobel Peace Prize Special Edition Proletariat Destroyers. I hear they come with a free Nobel Peace Prize Drone if you buy 3 of them.

Wait there's more.... I hear they'll throw in some Humanitarian Bombs if you order in the next 10 minutes.

War is Peace
Freedom is Slavery
Ignorance is Strength

All is fine in the empire of lies.

The War on Terror is the state's means for implementing the complete paramilitary police state. This blueprint has been used by just about every totalitarian regime for thousands of years.
