Business Insider breaks down military equipment used in Ferguson...

NOTE:  I was looking at this and had an epiphany.  With a few exceptions I have the same gear and of a better quality than some of these cops.  Makes me wonder.  The argument that they're trying to play catchup with guys like me can be made (although I'm definitely not planning on robbing a store, taking someone hostage or rioting). I'm definitely gonna have to chew on this some more.  Not as cut and dry as I was making it I guess.
