Should police departments be allowed to use military grade equipment?
Yes, but with strict training on how and when to use the equipment
The police are trained to handle civil events and when they escalate they are no longer civil they become a state and or federal issue. So when asking between a police officer who has maybe only pulled over a few people for speeding and arrested some for stealing and a military official who is trained in multiple types of combat and is equipped with all the needed tools and information to handle an intense situation I'd choose the soldier.
