Sure they will, because most police forces have used them in situations that require an armored vehicle and aren’t just doing it to cosplay being the gestapo.
This is a bit more obscure than that, but mostly yes.
The real problem is that the army doesn’t want more tanks. They’ve asked congress to stop building armored vehicles. Don’t need money for tanks, want money for R&D.
Congress love building tanks because it falsely creates jobs in their districts. So more tanks. Most of these factories are located in red districts.
Too many tanks and they have to sell them. That’s how police can buy tanks.
Sell all your AR15? Most AR15 owners are in red states. There are direct correlation with voting republicans and owning firearms. So if you decide to sell you AR15 it might indicate you’d switch vote? It’s a stretch but less republicans, more jobs from other types of factories (e.g. Green energy related), less money to build tanks, less armored vehicles being auctioned off to police.
The cops justify needing that because you have an ar15.
Yeah, it’s really not that complicated!
If everyone gets rid of their ar-15’s, do the cops sell this vehicle?
They might not sell it, but they probably wouldn’t get funding for buying another one.

Yes, once every person in the USA voluntarily hands in every semi-auto rifle…the cops will decommission the tanks.

sorry. I thought once every person in the USA voluntarily hands in every semi-auto rifle. made it obvious I was not talking about reality.

Yes, they justify it. Do they need it? No.
Your statement applies to both the ar15 and the MRAP…
