Info? A Miss. sheriff & his men pulled ouzi's on FEMA and told them
to stay out of their town, that it was under control? That they had enough food and water and didn't want outside help? My dad heard this.

6. They may well have automatic weapons. Probably MP5's
Uzi is cheap trash.

11. If I was a sheriff up against the Meth plague, I'd buy Uzis too
Well, actually I wouldn't--I'd choose the much superior H&K MP5.

But I would definitely arm my officers with machineguns. The Polizei in Germany have armed their officers with MP5s for decades, and it works for them.

(There is, however, no comparison between the Polizei and American law enforcement. The Germans gave the Polizei the job of catching the Baader-Meinhof Gang and the Red Army Faction, and now the BMG and the RAF are no more. Bush gave the Army the job of catching Osama until he got bored, and Osama is still around.)

9. Whoa, he is out of the country and he heard it on the news. Maybe
he meant auotmatic weapons and not ouzis (though I do not put it past a Missisippian to own an ouzi). And I think the point was, they did not want outside interference/help.
