JMHO,

not a problem...only another fox news distortion/lie...


In Reality, Obama's Executive Order Does Not DisarmThe Police

Obama's EO Simply Bans Law Enforcement Agencies From Acquiring "Prohibited" Military Equipment From Federal Agencies Or Purchasing Them With Federal Funds, And Requires Assurances For Acquiring "Controlled" Equipment Such As R**t Gear. According to Executive Order 13688, local law enforcement can still acquire "controlled" military equipment including: manned aircraft, armored vehicles, tactical vehicles, explosives and pyrotechnics, r**t batons, r**t helmets, and r**t shields. The executive order however does prohibit local law enforcement from acquiring equipment including tracked armored vehicles, weaponized vehicles, firearms and ammunition .50 caliber or higher, and grenade launchers from federal agencies or using federal dollars:

NPR: "Local Police Departments Can Still Buy This Equipment On Their Own." According to a May 18 report on the new rules by NPR, "local police departments can still buy" the equipment, they simply "can't buy them from the feds or buy them using federal money." [NPR, 5/18/15]

Would not be one bit surprised if he took them away from law enforcement and turned around and gave them to militant black organizations.

When this title popped up in my mail I wondered who was outraged, now I see. It is that frightened bigots who would be outraged.
The easiest group to whip up.
