There's a lot, 'not to like'
about the police shooting in Ferguson, MO, but one of the most disturbing is all the military equipment that has been given out to the law enforcement agencies, there, and all across the country. Billions of dollars of new and barely used equipment, from the 'Bush Wars', that SOMEBODY sold to the military. We know 'Oops, no WMD's was an economic decision by Bush/Cheney, but, when we see the HUGE amount of equipment left behind, destroyed, given away and being hauled back the US, (see 60 Minutes), we can begin to realize just why Bush and the Pubs were so eager to push the country into war. Although hundreds of thousands were killed and injured, a select few 'defense' contractors 'made a killing' supplying the govt with bombs, bullets everything else needed, or imagined, to wage war on the other side of the world. Just like Viet Nam, that I thought could never happen again, But it did. Thanks George. But mostly, it was 'The Dick'(R).
