According to a report by the Wall Street Journal, the federal
government has been granting armored vehicles like BearCats to cities
and towns since the World Trade Center attacks in 2001. Additionally,
about 200 vehicles designed to survive landmines and other explosions
have also been distributed across the country, with another 750 requests
pending.
While some communities have welcomed such acquisitions amid increased
concern over mass shootings, others have balked at the idea. As RT reported last
year, residents in Salinas, California, flooded the Facebook page of
their local police department after it obtained a heavily armored
vehicle capable of withstanding rifle fire and minefield explosions.
“That vehicle is made for war,” mentioned one commenter at the time. “Do not use my safety to justify that vehicle,” another one wrote. “The
Salinas Police Department is just a bunch of cowards that want to use
that vehicle as intimidation and to terrorize the citizens of this
city.”
