FBI: Arm Boston Police with assault rifles, WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG??

Sheeple still confused, 54% think this is a good idea, 41% say no, a few still not sure. Obviously many people still have no idea who the real terrorists are... FBI agent Bamford "baffled" by opposition to his plan, maybe he hasn't heard about all the innocent people killed by the non-lethal tasers? - ed.

An FBI official said Boston police officers should be armed with assault rifles to make the city more prepared for a terrorist attack.

Warren Bamford, the special agent in charge of the FBI in Boston, said Tuesday that he is baffled by opposition to a proposal to give some neighborhood police officers the semiautomatic weapons. In May, Boston Mayor Tom Menino criticized a proposal to arm up to 200 officers with M-16s that the police department had ordered from the U.S. military. Menino said only specially trained units should have the guns. Bamford said he believes more officers should have access to the guns in the event Boston becomes the target of a terrorist attack like the one that killed 166 people in Mumbai, India in November.
