A while back, I did a search for the manuals for vehicles like this and figured out they, by default, they are all keyed alike. So, unless your local law enforcement agency is filled with intelligent, forward thinking individuals bright enough to get them rekeyed (and can convince the accountants/comptrollers to pay for the rekeying), you can figure out what the key is through the manuals (because pigs are idiots and host them unsecured) and order them on Amazon or whatever.

Would be funny if they were all at the bottom of lakes and canals

Also, all of your local cop cars are probably keyed alike, too. And busses don’t have keys at all.

"The means of colonial violence turn inward to control the domestic population?"

high water rescues

the other stuff; no but strip the armor off it, paint it yellow, but a cool "PROSPER SWIFT WATER RESCUE" logo on it and only do that

then give it to the fire department

You people think the american empire doesn't ever learn anything, but here's proof

They learned how effective IEDs are for an insurgency, and gave these to domestic police

Damn and I thought it was wild that my city got one with a population of ~60k

Nothing has ever happened here that something like that would be useful for. Even when some MAGA chud shot a couple cops out in the mountains this thing wouldn't help because it wouldn't fit on the roads up there. Like it would literally cause a fuckin landslide before it got anywhere where people are armed in any significant way.

I'm glad Grave Digger got new life after being retired from the monster truck circuit.

Mine-Resistant Ambush Protected vehicle

we'll see

Not an occupying force tho

Burgerpunk truck

Damn it's like the tools of imperialism are coming back to the homeland, like a boomerang or something

This truck is actually a de-escalation tactic, if any acorns attack the cops the detained people in the back of the truck are way safer

Ok, I identify as a "law enforcement agency" now. WHERE'S MY FUCKING TANK!

Mine Resistant Ambush Protection Vehicle

Gets stopped in it's fukin tracks by a water balloon full of paint and sand tossed at its windshield.

Mine-Resistant lol ask Ukrainians about that.

$300 Chinese drone + $100 grenade from the top

I think police departments should have Iron Domes that shoot missiles at fentanyl particles

Tax dollars don’t pay for military equipment now?

That things hood is quite clearly taller than those two, presumably fully grown, adults. How the fuck would could this ever be safe to operate with anyone not in an SUV nearby unless you got an old timey red flag waver out front?

This country is so beyond fucked

They gave the Los Angeles School District Police an MRAP too. I figure the US military was going full Oprah; You get an MRAP! And you get an MRAP!
