BLACKWATER Police Style Car @ the Tacoma OCCUPY Event....
Edited on Fri Oct-07-11 11:57 PM by rsmith6621

Had Blackwater on the side with a lightbar on top and partition behind the front seat and a pushbar on the grille.

I didn't get a picture of it but it was about halfway down the march route today.....strange,are they being contracted out here to local law enforcement?

5. Didn't they change their name to something idiotic, like Xe?
And I actually thought I heard they broke up into a couple of separate companies for differing purposes....

Here's their website: http://www.ustraining.com/new/index.asp

3. Almost certainly not the real deal
As another poster pointed out they are 'Xe' or whatever nowadays. And even if they were there, I doubt they would be advertising.

Probably either somebody making a joke or making a statement of some kind.

6. beware of pretenders
There are organizations who pretend to be cops. They train, dress and like like cops without any powers. They can be easily be hired to stir up some serious tension.

here is a local group of some such posers where i'm from.

research your area and learn who they are, consult your local authorities.
