westernrifleshooters.wordpress.com/2014/04/30/why-oh-why-oh-why-oh/Why, Oh Why, Oh Why, Oh…Are there 30 MRAPS going to Ohio? From a reader: CA, this is the MRAP the Marion City PD received this morning in Ohio. The county Sheriff reportedly got one too. It is apparently part of an order of 30 to the Buckeye state. Supposedly for use in drug raids. Oh happy day. www.marionstar.com/article/20140425/NEWS01/304250017/Marion-police-sheriff-will-receive-Mine-Resistant-Ambush-Protective-vehicles?nclick_check=1After a casual conversation with the police secretary I learned the following. The dept has been on a waiting list for a while and we’re just called and told their number was up and if they got a guy to the meet they could have one free of charge. She thinks it’s great because the swat team will be so safe now on drug raids. She said they have reams of Intel on drugs operations in the city and it’s very dangerous for the guys. She said the sheriff’s unit is older and smaller and that they’ve had it a while. The dept is 43 officers, 10 are swat. She told me that given the guys from Detroit and Chicago running operations in town that I should be very scared. This MRAP will be something everyone will be thankful for when the cops have to use it. Good to know.
