        @BoingBoing @doctorow Doesn't that also mean it's perfectly legal to shoot them in self defense?

        @BoingBoing Also, in the PDF provided, there is no mention of Massachusets SWAT teams claiming to be "law enforcement councils".

        @BoingBoing Pretty slanted article. Especially seeing as members of SWAT teams are law enforcement agents. Beat cops in armour.
