a SWAT team is basically a professional kill team armed to the teeth with military weapons,
Define military weapons. I hope you realize the slippery slope your argument rests on.

Quote:
you may not know it but in Katrina SWAT teams (or the equivalent) were breaking down citizens doors, holding people at gunpoint, taking their weapons by force, with order to shoot to kill if anyone resisted.
Cite proof that they were actually highly specialized and trained teams and not just whatever LE/NG was in the area, and that they had orders to kill.

police today with their level of armament represent standing armies, they are centralized, organized, in the chain of command ultimately under the authority of the Commander in Chief
Would you like to detail how local LE become federalized troops?
