One day you’re there dancing with BTS and the next, some guy is shooting you with a assault rifle. Well at least it’s next job will be less high stakes

I’m sure tech execs and military equipment companies have a series of sales seminars somewhere. They’ve got the police testing the dogs that might one day go to the military, and the military testing the gear that winds up in the hands of the cops. Meanwhile, stats about the majority of citizens paying for all of this getting along better without soldiers or cops will be buried by the press.
