Blue Lives Matter

Honestly, these men and women are putting their lives on the line to protect and serve, yet we have these BLM thugs running rampant and attempting to tear down peace and order. Where is the justice in inane movements such as these? Why is the leftist narrative glorifying disorderly conduct?
For too long have police been taken for granted and frankly I’m pissed about it.

They do matter. But police need much better training than they currently endure, especially if we’re going to insist on militarizing them.
I'm not even sure if that's true.
Almost every video showing that point has as much credibility as Project Veritas, in that they selectively edit and withhold information.

They could probably save money by not buying tanks.
According to https://www.muckrock.com/news/archives/2014/oct/14/new-york-police-departments-large-and-small-gain-m/
Since enrolling in 1995, the NYPD has obtained four armored trucks valued at $65,000 each and two former artillery vehicles known as mortar carriers valued at more than $200,000 each. The NYPD received one such heavily armored vehicle in June 2012.
Even if they paid full price, that doesn't even represent enough money to cover training the NYPDs 38,421 officers for a single month.

If you care so much, you should go counter-protest instead of complaining on a message board.

They still benefit more from that not a month than they would from a tank

I was being overly generous, it's really less than 1 hours pay and that is assuming they actually paid full price. which they don't. plus that is going all the way back to 1995. so 25 years. so about 2.4 minutes a year.
The police aren't anywhere near as militarized as the media and other far-left wackos have tried to convince people.
