Be realistic here, purchase one for 300 grand, it might be used occasionally, might, so it rolls down the street to a call, wow look at that mommy,, when it gets to a call, where is it going to park, in a driveway, better yet what is it going to be used for, to hide behind. In the meantime all the officers already there are positioned already behind cover, it has no other functional purpose other than transport and intimidation and believe me a free MWRAP intimidates much more. So the NPPD policy is to surround and wait, sometimes they have waited for over ten hours, the sheriffs vehicle can be there in less than one hour and guess what costs us nothing, we already pay for it.So this is the second time you shot off your mouth, when you need them, well I wont. Most police encounters take less than 10 seconds, Your either brainwashed or a kiss a$$. This man is boldly lying and being deceitful, like a little kid, to get what he wants at our expense. So as you watch your television, turn off the police shows your just not mentally equipped to understand. Story continues !!!!!!!!!
