Police Militarization Goes Primetime

You are so correct it is not even funny.

I have a co-worker that until the day comes that he can't get his cookies and twinkies he might actually look around and go WTF??

And then on the other end of the spectrum, we have Trinity 911 due to air this fall on CMT. It's a "docu-comedy" reality cop show following the Trinity, Texas police department around.

A news release from CMT says “Each half-hour episode of the workplace reality series will follow the on and off-duty antics of the most colorful police department in Texas … Whether they are tasering each other to pass the time or struggling through a donut-free workout with their new trainer, the Trinity PD is on the job 24/7, 365 days a year.”
