[QUOTE="soberups, post: 1385980, member: 14668"] I seem to recall the North Hollywood bank robbery/shootout back in 1997 where LAPD officers armed with nothing but 9mm handguns and 12 gauge shotguns were forced to go up against two bank robbers wearing multiple layers of body armor and wielding full-auto AK-47's. In order to safely rescue its wounded officers who were laying in the street, the LAPD was forced to [I]borrow[/I] an armored car from a private company that had been servicing nearby ATMs as well as sending officers to a nearby gun store to requisition high-powered rifles that could defeat the armor worn by the robbers. Like it or not, the days of cops having nothing but patrol cars and light weapons are over. If I had a family member or loved one who was a member of a SWAT team, I would want them to be surrounded by as much armor plate and badass weaponry as money could buy. [/QUOTE]
