Message | The Moderates support this legislation. Police officers carrying military-grade equipment discourages civilian-police interaction, increases the arms race with the criminals and it's exaggarated & also rather expensive weaponry for current crime situation which has gone down 15% since 2346. We already have heavily armed police squads in every police department for emergency situations. * Edwin Price, Minister of Internal Affairs |
