Every podunk town has a SWAT vehicle for when Ernie gets likkered up and beats up Thelma Lou.


AR-15s, flashbangs, MRAPs, it gets more ridiculous by the day.

Do you expect them to execute a Corgi with a handgun when raiding the wrong house to seize $50,000 in drugs while leveraging $200,000 in resources?

Thats my point. Everything I've ever seen or read about professional SWAT/CT teams puts the emphasis on drills and training nonstop. Those guys play like they practice.
Would you want your life in the hands of guys that practice once a month?
