Don't know how current that is. It shows my county with nothing. But I know our Sheriff's dept. recently got 2 Hummers that are designated for our SAR team to use.
Most people don't really want the truth.
They just want constant reassurance that what they believe is the truth.

We got screwed - 14 rifles and 3 pieces of body armor. At the very least we should have got a truck load of RPG's for stopping drivers who are texting.
I see one county here that got only 1 mine resistant vehicle. In all honesty, though, they do have some Mexican gangs to deal with.
I love what Blaine County, ID got (that's the home of all the rich people in Sun Valley). They got a grenade launcher. Maybe they'll use it to clear avalanches.

440 ass weapons for a County of 400K? Too many, or not enough? Looking at cities with populations of 1-4 million that only request 150-200, ya.But they're free. Just like skool breakfast, lunch and dinner. Guy that runs the Sheriff Dept. dock told me he went on vacation and they received a bunch of M4, 3 shot select. They sat on the dock for a couple of days unprotected with jail trustees running around.

I'm trying to figure out why Ventura County, CA needs almost 3300 night vision pieces. That's almost 4 times what LA county received.
