Masked Cowards

Jeff Cooper, from his commentaries, Vol 1., No. 8:
We simply must do something about these fat men with face masks and MP5s who shoot down unarmed citizens. Personally, I would not think that the American people would stand for this, but then I am a member of an older generation which took the Declaration of Independence and the United States Constitution with more than a grain of salt.
Honest men and women do not wear face masks in the conduct of their normal daily business, other than maybe respirators in areas with dust or hazardous chemicals in the atmosphere, or when it is super-cold outside.

Honest men and women are not afraid to be seen going about their daily routines. They have no need for disguises.

Yet, here we have what probably passes for a typical SWAT team:


Black helmets, black uniforms. Where have we seen that before?


Other then the weapons, the main difference between a SWAT team and the SS seems to be that the SS saw no need to hide their faces.

SWAT teams, like tasers, have proven to be a weapon that the police are too immature to use correctly. We ought to take these weapons away from them.

That we don't know how to take them away ought to bother us.

It's worth pointing out that the Germans words that SS is an acronym for can be translated as Homeland Defense........
