The New Hampshire Union Leader reports on the desire of Concord, NH, police to get all militaried up with Bearcat armored SWAT vehicles, paid for by the federal Department of Homeland Security, natch.

In its grant application to DHS, the police department said New Hampshire's experience with terrorism "slants primarily towards the domestic type," and said "the threat is real and here."

"Groups such as the Sovereign Citizens, Free Staters and Occupy New Hampshire are active and present daily challenges," the application stated. In addition to organized groups, it cited "several homegrown clusters that are anti-government and pose problems for law enforcement agencies."

I thought I posted here, guess I lost it.

The Free Staters don't seem to be a very agressive group. They seem quite mellow. The others I don't know about. I don't think they need those armored vehicles for the Free Staters. They just want to be left alone.

When they get their toys, they must use them, you know.
