		<description>It&#039;s pretty easy to not kill people: I do it very day.  

The primary purpose of the police is to keep public order, prevent crime, and catch criminals for the purpose of deterrence and also to express social outrage in a non-mob fashion.  My concern with the move to turn police forces into private armies is that it results in a lot more violent, sudden, and confusing conflicts that lead to a lot of mistakes, civilian deaths, accidents, and just a general atmosphere of the police being the violent, no-apologies for whatever tactics they deem-necessary and/or cool masters of their communities rather than servants of them.</description>

		<description>A tank for a SWAT team is perfectly normal, they use them everywhere. Except the gun is replaced with a battering ram, and the machine gun with a water cannon.

You know, to NOT kill people, which is still kind of the main purpose of the police</description>

		<description>Snipers make a lot of sense in police forces: they&#039;re discriminating and accurate.  Mounted machine guns?  Not so much.  This isn&#039;t a matter of sound police work.  It&#039;s a matter of the militarization of police forces.

And I&#039;m not sure how tongue-in-cheek it actually is, given the claimed reasoning.  </description>

		<description>The name is supposed to be somewhat tongue-in-cheek. But in any case, the only thing unusual here is probably just the gun. Police departments all over the nation have what amount to tanks just like this one, usually with a battering ram up front. It&#039;s for the same reason they have professional snipers and other SWAT team stuff: for special needs situations that generally don&#039;t come up in everyday policing.</description>

		<description>There is an early-medieval germanic version of the gospels in which Jesus is a warrior king and his disciples are armored knights. It&#039;s kind of like Beowulf or Arthurian legend only religious.

Usually this work is known as the Saxon Gospel or the Heliand. Check it out if you get a chance.</description>
