Sure, but how many books can you kill at one time?

It’s part of the Dallas/Ft Worth metro, but that cost is something like $18 per person in the town.
Are they spending $18 per person on schools? Another $18 per person on libraries? What about hospitals?
Socialism! REEEEEEE!!! Why do you hate America???
That’s kind of my point. $18 per person is a ridiculous cost. They have a population of ~37,000 people. It would be less inexcusable if it were in Dallas (~1.3m). I mean, police stations don’t need vehicles like that at all, but it’s even more disgusting that a town that small spent money on that.
$18 utterly wasted.
Setting $18/person on fire would have been more beneficial to the community.
The police didn't pay anything for it, it's on a free loan from DoD. US taxpayers paid something for it for sure but the police (and specifically DFW people didn't have to foot that bill
That's a lie, they have to pay shipping, conversion and up keep.
They probably already spent 150k to get there and set up...
