The Norco Bank Job: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norco_shootout wikipedia posted:The Norco shootout was an armed confrontation between five heavily armed bank robbers and deputies of the Riverside County and San Bernardino County sheriffs' departments in Norco, California, on May 9, 1980. Two of the five perpetrators and a sheriff's deputy were killed; eight other law enforcement officers, a civilian, and two other perpetrators were wounded; and massive amounts of gunfire damaged at least 30 police cars, a police helicopter, and numerous nearby homes and businesses. So, here we have an extremely well documented single event which unquestionably led to a rabid expansion of police firepower, and yet, in googling, I can't find a single person making the claim that this was all a setup to achieve those exact ends. On the other hand, basically every mass casualty event Columbine to present has had exactly those claims made, even though in every case the actual impact of the events on policy was nonexistent. The only common thread I can think of is that the Norco job happened somewhat before internet culture had started to poison everything in proper, and so culturally we had less brainworms at that time even the fringe parts of society were more able to accept the idea that bad guys with guns do bad things without state support or crisis actors. I hope I'm wrong about that, because if true, hosed up, doomer! If a Norco like event happened tomorrow, we'd see the same escalation in law enforcement buying ever more firepower, but I also think the Q-Shaman would get involved somehow.

The conspiracy guys are okay with the local PD getting more guns. It's only a police state if it's the Feds.

It's over 40 years old op. The people who were alive for it are largely scared of the internet and probably just watch cable tv.

Because robbing a bank is a really plausible motive for what happened.

Seems like mods have seized more and more power since the Derpies incident tbh, but at least they're keeping us safe from weirdo psycho freaks

This is exactly what the Epstein thread in CSPAM is for. I'll ask them for you if you want. They know all the black ops.

Seems like a little much of a response for a simple bank robbery. Police just wanted better guns for sure.

probably more useful to just understand that the 2nd amendment + industrial revolution = arms race within your borders eventually
