I was talking more about the funding aspect of what they have been able to provide. They have provided us with some tools to do the job that the county itself would have never spent money on. thats because by law the asset funds must be spent a certain way, otherwise the county would steal them away to buy new furniture at west st...

The boss' overlooked the trunk of 101 during inspection, imsuit had it filled with porn magazines which he said was, "sexual therapy material". I remember. That stack of paper was thick enough to stop any rounds the new vest could stop. I did my Field Training in the Third in a post that had a magazine distribution warehouse on its post. Hundreds of therapy material, without the front covers of course, filled the trunk. Honestly, you could not find room for a tic-tac in there. Boy, times have changed.

I brought my AR to work after 9/11, I'm retired and can admit it.
I know I was not the only one.
Actually, I know at least one guy who had one in his bag for years before 9/11/01.
The bottom line is that the bad guys, terrorists, have been here for many years.
I locked one up in Roosevelt in the mid 90's. He had a stainless .45 1911 in a shoulder holster.
I hope it has changed since I retired, but with the availability BSO on certain days (I leave this out on purpose) you should make sure you have the tools to go home at EOT.

Guy was a member of Hezbolla, wanted in Israel for terrorism related offenses. He had been living in the "mosque" on Nassau Road. The mf'ers are already here. Been here for many years, waiting......

The mf'ers are already here. Been here for many years, waiting...... And now we have a traitorous administration that is bringing in refugees from the middle east hell holes. No doubt that among them are reinforcements for the terrorists already here. Where are those ratty old bomb blankets when you need them? Be careful out there.

No, not most of us, but the political/media elite have contracted the virus called liberalism, which is a dangerous, brain eating disease that dissolves the region of the brain controlling common sense.

My two cents: a hundred years ago when I was on patrol, I carried a 12ga pump shotgun up front with me and took it out a few times when I thought I might have needed it. The bosses were aware that I had it but never gave me any grief about it. If I was pushing a PD around these days, I'd have an M4 up front 'just in case'. Asset gets A LOT of equipment for our job, not just the stuff that patrol gets or is mentioned on the news, but stuff for the Electronics Squad that they use EVERY DAY not only to catch bad guys, but also to help find missing children, Alzheimer's patients, and suicidal individuals.
