Well, I had no idea it would happen but it seems the video of police breaking into a mans home in Illinois has gone viral and has reached a lot of accounts that don't follow me which is good I suppose but there seems to be some confusion on one of the points I made in that post.
From a quick glance at the comments many were confused by the acronym "GWOT" which means global war on terror. The reason it's relevant is that under the federal 1033 program over $7 billion dollars of actual US military equipment has been given to domestic police agencies of all types. The VAST majority of that has occurred following the "surge" in Iraq as deployed forces were reduced and the military's need for the equipment (armored vehicles, grenade launchers, planes, etc...) in theater decreased and it was viewed as "excess equipment." Now that equipment is being used domestically in confrontations with American citizens.
Obviously this is a complex issue that can't be broken down in a single text post but that should provide context to those who were asking...

Reportedly footage of Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) ambushing Rapid Support Forces (RSF) members as they rode into town on motorcycles.
Surely all the errant rounds fired into the apartment buildings in the background didn't kill any locals... 👀

Some criminal(s) decided it was a good idea to open fire last night in San Jose's Westfield Valley Fair Mall.
At least 3 people have been hospitalized and the police do not have a suspect(s) in custody.
Shop accordingly....

Escondido police received a call about a man with a knife jumping in front of vehicles and threatening drivers.
When they arrived the man stated he wanted police to shoot him and after her charged them his wish was granted with an impromptu ballistics test on his torso and leg.
After soaking up multiple 9mm hollow point rounds the man still refused to drop the knife. Additional officers eventually arrived and used multiple 40mm "sponge rounds" on him until he dropped the knife and was taken into custody.
Good example of pistol wounding ballistics if the central nervous system isn't hit.
Plan accordingly....
