CNN's Ed Lavendera reports that Congress is giving $100 million to pay security expenses for this summer's political conventions. Denver and St. Paul officials have said that the types of weapons being purchased are "top secret.
"
The ACLU is suing both cities to disclose how security money is being spent.
This video is from CNN's American Morning, broadcast July 7, 2008.
You see these weapons are here to protect you, to protect you, to protect you; YOU need to be protected, its for your own good >:)

I'm a rational person and I am very concerned!! Police forces have become para-military forces. Barney fife got an extreme make over and now he's frickin Rambo! Does that sound irrational? Peace2U!!

Cool and not cool. Cool because the weapons are innovative. Not cool because it sounds like they plan on using them at the Conventions.
