    Cops are civilians. Elected officials are civilians. What are they even banning?

      Quite interestingly, only US English definitions consider the police non-civilians, as opposed to the British and most of the world’s definition.

      Wonder why that might be.

      Yikes. No need for that. The dude is a fascist, that’s demonstrated by his actions / opinions. And that’s enough to go on.

    It’s so the last step needed by the GOP to make the police conversion to their personal brownshirts.
