Forget about the military. Our police forces are becoming the tool of the oligarchs like the Kochs and the 1%. It is they that will control the masses of poor and working poor. As we slide into economic totalitarianism and religiosity our local police forces will become the enforcers against dissent.

scenes like this. It's really freaky. Some have said this is in preparation for living in a police state, they wear you down a little at a time until this is common place. I really fear where we are going as a nation, call it a sixth sense, but I feel really uncomfortable with our direction.
