Uh, yeah … just as I thought:
…The MRAP, which is valued at $730,000, was acquired for a mere pittance – $5,000 in shipping fees – through the controversial Excess Property Program, or 1033 program. That’s the same Department of Defense setup that has drawn fire following the Ferguson, MO protests…
I can’t imagine that it will be sent to kids’ homes in the middle of the school day in attempt to ambush “truant” kids, lol ….
