[QUOTE="wyldberi, post: 96150, member: 6095"] The militarization is already there. As mentioned earlier, it's been a festering wound in the fabric of society for decades. You see it in the police helmets with plexiglass face shields; the solid black or dark, dark blue uniforms; the Velcro tabs that cover officer names & badge numbers; large shields shaped like those used by the Roman legions long ago that are now being used in phalanx formation to push crowds back and out of the way; rubber bullets and other forms of non-lethal weaponry. And how about the crowd control tanks and armored cars? If you're talking about militarization in the sense of a mental attitude, then yes, this is an excuse for those behind the move to militarize the police to reinforce the "we v. them" mentality that causes police to gather the wagons around their own interests and view "them" as being anyone else who does not fit the profile of our wealthy: executive / politician / investor class. When the real trouble starts, I'm betting the police will be serving as a reserve force, with military contractors being the heavy hitting shock troops that lead the way. I see this happening when economic turmoil erupts. This might occur as part of a global economic melt down. Financial institutions closed; massive unemployment; there may be virulent diseases involved. When this is followed by the loss of infrastructure, including gas and oil pipelines, the transportation network that brings food to our supermarkets, what will happen? As for the Public, we, the average Citizens of our country, have you noticed the expansion of doomsday "entertainment" stories being released from Hollywood and by the television networks? Zombies everywhere you look. Communities cut off from the outside world. Roaming bands of brigands led by local warlords. I see this as being a form of mental conditioning intended to create a mindset in which resistance to an authoritarian power structure becomes virtually impossible to organize. It's all headed somewhere. No one can say for sure where or how it will eventually look. But it's definitely headed in a direction in a unified direction and I don't like what I see. [/QUOTE]
