        And it won't be racism when these military cast-offs are only used in poor and predominantly minority areas. This kool aid tastes weird....

        Neglecting the fact that those areas also have extremely high crime rates?

        Face value seems ok. Will this cause an escalation in the "arms race" with militia's and criminals?
