We don’t control the sheriff’s budget. We give him X number of dollars, he does with it what he wishes.

Ok then, I'd like to open discussion about the sheriff's budget. Time to make some cuts.

Sounds like the kind of place that would have a tank

[–] FudgyMcTubbs@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Um... Without a tank, how else would they escalate a situation that could otherwise have been resolved through negotiation and patience, dummy?

I couldn't find a tank, but they do have a pretty badass looking "heavy rescue team" although that's their rescue squad, sometimes it makes sense, our DOT has a full sized Hummer that they actually use.
