GOOD police work in 99.9 percent of situations doesn’t need any more body armor than the standard bullet resistant vests that do NOT have the intent of intimidation, but does help to protect cops from all the guns out on the streets they have to deal with , thanks in large part to Wayne La PIerre and the nut side of “ownership”.
In tracking the growth of militarizing the police, 99% of the “credit” can go to conservative politics and thought. Shoot first, ask questions later is NOT the “liberal” concept of getting the information first, and reacting rationally, even if that DOES sometimes mean lethal force is the only viable option left.
^Thanks to the “unitary Executive” of Dick Cheney, and court attacks on the Constitution from “conservative” judges and justices on the SCOTUS and “inferior” courts appointed over the years by Republican Administrations.

Nothing to see here, folks, just a weak-minded cartoonist; please keep moving along.
