Militarised citizenry

Isn't that just the police now. I think they're classified as civil servants too, not professional soldiers.

And how many local shithead militias have close ties to local PDs all across the country? Remember Patriot Prayer setting up a fuckin sniper nest in a parking garage in 2020?

Got military grade IED resistance vehicles in some towns, training from IDF, budget larger than most militaries in the world. Hell there is a history of law enforcement and military training of those in latin America which I imagine is a guinea pig for the US testing things out
