What would you think if a group of thugs roamed your neighborhood killing anything that looked like it might be "threatening in any way, then rounding up all your neighbors and destroying the evidence of such crimes while holding a gun to their heads?

Police said the 12 police offers involved, including cops from other Miami-Dade agencies like Hialeah Police, fired 115 rounds at Herisse's car, according to the Miami New Times.
The victims eventually sued the Miami Beach Police Department, leading a judge to order the release of a handful of records regarding the incident, which is still under investigation by the Miami-Dade State Attorney's Office.
Herisse's autopsy report revealed that he did not test positive for gunpowder residue, the Miami Herald reports, even though police say they found a gun in his car days after the shooting.
More controversy surrounded the police's behavior that night, CBS Miami reports, after another bystander with footage of the shooting said police pointed a gun at him and tried to smash his phone.
The man said he was able to hide the phone's memory card in his mouth
Pretty scary right?
What if the government responded to this by giving allocating your tax money to the thugs so that they can do it more efficiently and with more deadly consequences?

CBS 4 News had the exclusive first look at this 140-thousand dollar light tactical all-terrain vehicle, similar to the ones used in the military.
“This is the only one of its kind,” an officer explained to CBS 4′s Lauren Pastrana. “There’s no other vehicle like this on the market at this time.”
But instead of war zones overseas, cops will use it to protect the city of Miami Beach, as well as its residents and visitors.
“A dark beach at night, I would compare it to a dark alley in a big city,” said the officer.
The camera uses infrared technology to detect heat signatures on the beach, so even in the dead of night, officers can see people on a small screen mounted inside the vehicle.
“We could easily pick up a heat signature on this camera close to 3/4 of a mile away,” the officer explained.
In a tech truck about a mile from the heart of the action, another network of surveillance cameras can be viewed on one giant screen.
Eighteen cameras placed throughout the city, in partnership with the Miami-Dade Police Department, will help alert officers if trouble occurs.
Only in America.
