    Oh, that’s def true, headlines about military equipment being bought by normal USA police departments keep popping up.

    The militarisation def doesn’t help with the problem.

    But I was referring more to the start, the colonial and early independent era, what existing groups were recruited/rebranded into the first police departments.
