        .@aterkel Is this true though? I remember this equipment showing up long before the highway patrol. Mayor seems uninformed on all fronts.

        @aterkel @igallupd isn't this rather missing the point? Concern is militarisation of police - does it matter if it's city or county police?

        @aterkel Insane to say this! We've SEEN them, LIVE nightly, close up attacking peaceful protesters. Veterans, other experts identify them.

        @aterkel but @WesleyLowery has reported, Ferguson police are actually NOT providing support to residents/businesses - not looted ones anyway

        @aterkel I think they're saying the #Ferguson PD has already contributed to this mess and doesn't want to deny other contributions. How nice
