Quad squad: College police forces move towards militarization
Tense demonstrations in Missouri in the wake of a police shooting of an unarmed teen have put a spotlight on the paramilitary trend local police forces are taken, and the phenomenon is visible on college campuses, too.
Big universities and small colleges alike are taking extreme security measures, from setting up elaborate networks of security cameras to purchasing urban-warfare vehicles and semi-automatic rifles.
In 2013, the campus police at The Ohio State University procured a Mine-Resistant Ambush-Protected vehicle (MRAP), according to the Daily Caller. The vehicle, which school officials noted was “acquired at no cost from military surplus,” has a gun turret on the roof and is designed to stave off ambushes and roll over improvised explosive devices. OSU was also the first agency in the state to acquire an MRAP at the time.

As I look back and reflect on "the Ferguson debauchery", who ordered the cop to shoot mike brown? Also, why was this certain cop slaughter so heavily publicized ? What is the scheme of the "secret peoples"....????

For the American people to be drawn into conflict with each other, as the useul idiots, paid off shills and controlled media fan the flames, while the Powers That Be sit back and laugh.
By the time everyone gets a clue as to who the real enemy is, the PTB will force such a change of overt control in society, that it will be easier to pick out anyone who would offer real resistance - which makes their goal of population reduction to manageble levels of serfs, so much easier.
