1. You forgot to include pictures of Iraq and Afghanistan

Most police forces have preferences for hiring veterans, who go to the head of the recruiting queue.

2. Does anyone have that cops name or badge number?

He needs immediate separation from the force, and there should be a civil lawsuit against him at the very least.

4. We have everything.

3. The huge mobilization is the 1% reminding us (and those in the pic) that they're the ones in control

and that we'd better remember it.

11. Yeah? Well, they're wrong.

You know that and I know that, and pretty soon they will know it, too.

7. Gas masks...classy.

Goons always seem to be the same kind of creatures when given the chance to provoke and use violence on innocent people.

10. I know, right? And the people pay the taxes that pays for that!!!

My gosh it's all wrong!!!!!!!!!

14. HA! Just posted something to that affect.

It is madness I tell you! Go buy some groceries, help but some robo-armor on a cop to violate innocent peoples civil rights! MADNESS!

15. Police state is right!

The pic on the bottom is self-explanatory.

8. I was going to post the fire hose ones, but thought the concern trolls would say it's not "police"

even though Bull Connor basically deputized the Birmingham Fire Department.

thanks for posting this! :hi:

9. It was the Fire Department?!

Somehow that's even worse!

I didn't catch that. Thanks, CreekDog. I am honestly afraid someone will end up dead. It doesn't have to happen!!!

12. "His office gave him responsibility for administrative oversight of the Birmingham Fire Department"

"...Connor ordered the city's fire hoses, set at a level that would peel bark off a tree or separate bricks from mortar, to be turned on the children. Boys' shirts were ripped off, and young women were pushed over the tops of cars by the force of the water. When the students crouched or fell, the blasts of water rolled them down the asphalt streets and concrete sidewalks.<68> Connor allowed white spectators to push forward, shouting, "Let those people come forward, sergeant. I want 'em to see the dogs work."<20><69> "

13. So far no one has been killed. That did happen in the 60s. I hope

we are not going to have to go there.
