New Castle County Council is a ball of dysfunction

New Castle County Police want $200,000 for a SWAT vehicle because the SUV they had been using was badly damaged in the line of duty. Now, I'm not one who thinks the police should be militarized, especially when reducing the number of assault weapons with high capacity magazines on the street would be both more effective and cheaper. That said, it is hard to be on the side of Bill Powers, who comes off looking like an ass.

Lopez gets another letter

Ernesto Lopez is going to find it hard to be on both sides of this issue. His bullshit response to HB163 is not going unnoticed.
Really? You can't bring yourself to support an assault weapons ban such as HB163? Assault weapons are made to mow down people and armies in a war zone. They can shoot innumerable bullets per minute and penetrate cars and most residential building material. I suppose you have friends and neighbors who go hunting with an AK47 or an AR15, or perhaps they need these weapons to protect their families from "well organized" armies of intruders? What state or country do you live in?
