Police receive most of their militarized equipment through two federal programs: the 1033 and the 1122 initiatives.
The fatal arrest of George Floyd has sparked nationwide protests demanding an end to police brutality and restructuring of police departments. Many of those protests were met with drastic measures and responses from local police departments armed with military gear. Equipment more commonly used on battlefields, like flash-bang grenades, tear gas, rubber bullets, helicopters and armored vehicles were witnessed numerous times at the scenes of protests.
Many of this militarized equipment is transferred through two federal programs: the 1033 and the 1122 initiatives. The 1122 program allows the police to purchase new military equipment using their own funding with the same discounts enjoyed by the federal government. The 1033 program allows the Department of Defense to transfer excess military equipment to local law enforcement agencies free of charge, as long as they pay for shipping and maintenance.
What makes both 1033 and 1122 programs so powerful is the apparent lack of clear oversight and accountability. The 1122 program, for instance, is not a grant or transfer program and thus is not required to be monitored by the federal government. Meanwhile, the 1033 program has put lethal weapons in the hands of officers who have no justifiable need for such equipment.

They shouldn’t be able to.
U.S. govt decommissions and gives military grade weaponry to police after pulling out of some military action, I suppose.
Probably the same way banks and financial institutions get bailed out and end up giving out hefty bonuses for terrible performance... Greed, corruption, divide & conquer.
I think you’re years late and millions upon millions of dollars gone on this one.
Maybe don’t burn down the city, loot, and attack people every time someone dies and they won’t keep needing more for the next time.... I agree it’s too much, but you idiots are creating the situation that’s requiring more. He even said it went up after the Ferguson riots.

More importantly, can I get a discount on a nice tank or rocket launcher? Would pay in Dogecoin

I’ve stopped counting, but this has to be the ~15th time you have posted this story this year (2x this weekend). Is this that big a deal or are you just looking for something controversial to generate traffic?
More good news please(((
How is that military grade? you non military serving people are hilarious
Again with this? This is the 7th time you have posted this article, 2x in the last 12 hours. Am I missing something? Is this that big of an issue?
Stop HR 127
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1997, created 1033 Program to allow “all law enforcement agencies to acquire property' for 'counter-drug and counter-terrorism' say Antifa did it and get more toys.
Are you fear mongering

I also rehash old posts from 10 years ago. How about some reporting on what's actually being done to solve this problem?
most gun's made these day's will never see a real war - they are produced only for show
CNBC so woke recently and is now jumping on the anti-police bandwagon too. The gist of this video and the boobs they interviewed say 'police shouldn't be able to protect themselves and armored vehicles make it harder for us to riot and cause anarchy'
1033 program. Saved you 3 min Most of what law enforcement get from these programs are office equipment and the like.
TLDR: the military sells their old gear to police (probably so they can oppress minorities more efficiently amirite lmao). CNBC uses big words like 'militarization' to make you scared. Hmu when the police get tanks and attack choppers, morons.
👽😎
Problems with transferred equipment, including theft were identified in the mid-1990s. As for militarization-early 1960s media reporting showed WW2 US military surplus armored vehicles in use by police departments in some southern states.
The same way CNN gives nothing but fear and death newspeak and pay very little for it?
Can we just give money to the weapons industry for free without asking them for weapons, it would certainly save lives and destruction
Because they are a legal criminal organization backed funded and protected by the government. Ask a harder question next time..
Fuck America forever
you have nothing to really report on?
Some of us remember when this happened!
It didn’t start with the riots. It started with the 1997 Bank of America robbery 1100 rounds of armor piercing ammo fired at LAPD officers from fully automatic rifles. Police cars weren’t bulletproof and police had pistols.
Presidents
LESO Program. DLA lends out decommissioned military equipment to local PDs.
Our paychecks?
The problem , you only need few bad xenophobic and racist apples 🍎 fully armed and instead of protecting you they’ll kill . Good Police shoot to wound, are trained to do so. Bad police shoot to kill , they’re not trained to do so with the exception of military engagement .
That’s what you call the corporate hijacking of the government...
After last years riots they need even more, maybe tanks!
Gotta control BLM riots somehow...when dem governors finally allow the police to police that is
Oppressors get a discount.
That's what happens when you want to create a police state and you decide to give the mentality to the officer of War. This is all goes back to the war on crime. And it's not just theatrical it's mental and they actually have the weapons of war
That's where the FED comes in that is our primary business in the world selling weapons including to our own police.
Dont riot and these things dont come out
George Bush 1 and 2. Oliver North. major crimes.
Which country are u talkin´ about? Venezuela, Russia, China, Belarus...?
The question should be, why does law enforcement allow White Supremacist to become Police Officers?!
Why was Trump banned?
They need MissionReadyMRS $MSNVF $MRS. Military grade equipment made in the USA.
And they still need more to keep proTrump terrorists out of the Capitol building.

Why do they get it?
CNBC is mad because their Antifa/BLM guys are outgunned by the Police.
By limiting Americans' pandemic survival checks to $600.
This is all post-9/11/01 nonsense, when Congress allocated all this money to keep everyone safe from swarthy middle eastern bomb throwers. Even now, ask a NYC cop a simple question & he sneers & says he can't answer as is busy 'fighting war on terror.'
This was a Zero Hedge story yrs back. Thanks for joining reality CNBC
Didn't this start under Obammy
I have the sense that 200 years from now there will be no military any where in the world & only a police ruling the world. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
WHAT? Give the police as much as they can get!!! Please protect them and US!!! What the hell is with this narrative CNBC
How do young citizens get it and they have no affiliation or id to buy ammo but have arms equivalent to local law enforcement? That's the scary part.
Who becomes a cop? The intelligent young man or woman that has a full ride to Princeton? or the ex military men and women who weren't very smart to begin with and has no other alternatives? Our only saving grace is that we're more armed than our own military.
ARM THE POLICE TO THE MAX!!!!
The patriot act.
Leftover supplies from our global warfare strategy.
A hammer only knows one way.
it's because the citizens of the usa are now the enemy of the state. if you'd bothered covering the BLM protests you would have seen it first hand, but you couldn't be bothered.
How are you a news network without reporting news such as the Biden scandal?
Stop it!
Its military surplus....

This is why our country never gets F with.
More social workers, less police.
Better question is what do they need it for?
good
JJZagata Thank you for sharing this illuminating news segment.
Here's why this narrative-based story is misleading. Civilians have access to the same hardware, even the now-ubiquitous AR-15 in most states. If you so choose, you can buy decommed armored vehicles too. The 'militarization' is anyone. Not just police.
reposted
They need tanks
Let's stop this practice now. Military equipment for SWAT maybe, but not for every police department.
good
did you see all cop cars set on fire in peaceful protests
stupid article
because they fighting well armed criminals, duh
Do you just rerun the same stories over and over?
They clearly need more of it to deal with these violent rioters. Don't become terrible, CNBC. If you skew too far to the insane left I'll have to look elsewhere for market reporting.
Patriot act.
Govt surplus. Saved you a click.
9/11 funding
The municipalities actually only pay for the transport of the military equipment. These weapons and transport vehicles are were intended to be used - many have never left our shores.
Article makes it look like police are military graded on all ordinary situations and that’s why black people are dying. Com’ on man!
gov't programs designed by democrats. the departments get the gear free, they just need to cover shipping

CNBC is anti-law enforcement
No no no, this is a shame.
Because they deserve it!
What if it saved one life? Isn’t it worth it?
The real question is how do criminals have AK’s and assault rifles? Is that where their stimulus checks went to?
yet they make teachers buy their own supplies
Who cares? Just defund them.
why do they get more than the drug cartels. the sex traffickers should only get the armored cara
How is NBC so partisan while claiming to represent honest coverage in this country?
Why is not reporting on the real story?

They need it to wage war on the local weed dealers... and jaywalkers. Kill all jaywalkers.
Surplus we need more Wars..But who knows what next week brings.
Those are left-overs from the world war against radical Islamists.
And yet, they are heavily outgunned by the people. Almost like 2A works.
Walmart! LEO discount. But, in all seriousness who cares! It saves taxpayers money.
Why is the media killing people with military weapons!?!?!?
How many times are you going to post this garbage?
How does the media get away with lying so much and pay very little for it?
They get it from the military when they decommission their inventory. Law Enforcement started to militariza them selves after the North Hollywood Shootout in 97. Bad guys are getting automatic and Ak style weapons so police have to match that.
They should have more. The streets aren't safe for normal people. I wish there were military police everywhere.
A drug raid at a house down the street. Flash bombs. Armored vehicles. Chasing down a young woman on probation. For probation violation. ... Scary. That was Sherriff Joe.

Like I stated everything I stated is fact's and you all got paid for him to do it and you I mean the Govt. But look what you'll do to loving people like Olga and our daughter
When your police force ends up looking like a military outfit, you know your society is in trouble
Who cares? Let them have it. That’s how they take care of bad people.
They get it because they need it. Remember this?
We’re lucky our police forces are well prepared. Otherwise, there would be nothing left of our great cities after the 2020 Riots.
Its almost as if these defence cos are saying, let us unleash hell elsewhere or we'll unleash hell at home. Give us our next Cold War, our next Iraq War, or whatever ..
Old news, but thanks for scaring us. Shameful.
What a dumb question.
Who is financing these radical protesters? However you will ask that, due to CNBC/DNC
They need more of it lets see if we can get on that !!! POTUS
Policing and social justice.... Blah blah blah
1033 law
Look at what we spend on defense every year! $750 billion
The days of 'protect and serve' are long gone. Now it's oppress and control. Police unions defend bad cops and the whole culture of policing has devolved since 9/11.
How? Federal grants, they have been available since 9/11 from DHS, thats how, I know because i'm a grant writer
I'm ready for Aunt Tiffa to taste some of that shit.
Ummm, the videos that the media refuses to show of police being attacked with high grade fireworks, Molotov cocktails and pipe bombs, makes me happy that the police have military grade weaponry and equipment.
Bullshit war surplus. The police have no use for military weaponry on their own.
Because of the culture of white heteronormative patriarchal oppression and abuse. That’s why.
Remember the War on Terror resulting from 9/11?
The better question is why should they need it
When regime kill NavidAfkari all European organizations shouted for Nasrin Sotoudeh to eat nuts RegimeKillNavid NasrinSotoudehKillNavidAfkari NasrinSotoudehIsASharlatan
The execution of wrestling champion NavidAfkari for simply exercising his right to freedom of expression should remind the world that the clerical regime which governs Iran is barbaric,cruel & evil. BanIRSports4Navid
I know there are legitimate cases where police should be jailed for the crime but many cases are due to recisting arrest.

I guess there has been a programming change. I think I am seeing more and more political topics (seems left leaning) being covered. I am curious to see if your new 7PM ET News show (free plug) is going to be as balanced as the Ad says it will be. Time will tell.
This is AmeriKKKa
Volume discount
Need?
After seeing what’s going around in the country it’s quite clear they do not have enough.
They probably are the military you never know I could be right or wrong
The left will be crying when there is a major incident, such as an active shooter or muitolle threat attack and the police don’t have the equipment to deal with it. Armored cars. Helmets. Protective vests. Some places can’t buy new.
Probably in a more legal way than these assholes terrorizing the communities do
Being paid little for because maybe they being threatened or there lives or family lives possibility or just any human life is possible threat or nothing to worry at all I could be right or wrong ...
cnbc doesn't think it's fair that their antifa-isis-blm minions cannot have the same
Who cares?!? they need more to deal with BLM terrorist.
Taxes
However they are getting it I hope the police get more!
The Tooth Fairy? F A K E N E W S dUMBASSES
In twenty years people will call this one of the great policy errors of the 2010s
Your minions keep rioting and the local PD's will get more. Of course its all intentional since you are actually encouraging a police state with your inflammatory rhetoric.
1033 program. There, saved you 3 mins.
How does Antifa get military grade bullet proof vests and gas masks? Who’s paying for it? Antifa
How does Antifa get funding?
🤮
You had no problem with this under Obama. Why now? FakeNewsMedia
It stated under Obama bring shit back from Iraq . Pawned MRAP off on local PD = no maintenance fees for govt. to be used LATER AGAINST THE PEOPLE AGENDA21 but democrats didn’t win lol
1033!
Yet they can't afford to buy body cameras.
Is it military surplus/left over from wars/conflicts?
I’ll save you the click it’s called military surplus too much bought during the Clinton/Bush/Obama administrations thus being repurposed for police work. It’s amazing how afraid civflakes are of MRAP (mine resistant armor protected) vehicles it’s not like they have a Phalanx.
The militarization of our police only reinforces why we have the 2A.
cnbc upset their side does not get this stuff
How many black people are killed by other black people every hour? Also, how many white people are killed by police every hour because annually more whites have been killed by police then black folk.
PDcityhall I'm not sure , ask YQRCC WayneMantykaCTV 🤔
Important to understand, people.
Federal funding from the war on terrorism. Yes, terrorism. Remember that fear from the 2000s?
because tax payers pay for to much production .

BreonnaTalyor Oprah and the O Magazine team say they are amplifying Taylor’s story and the fight for justice by erecting 26 billboards across the city. That’s one for every year of her life. -
There is a lot of surplus gear floating around when the annual defense budget is $700,000,000,000.🤷♂️
They should get more, for free. Or just stop coddling criminals, keep them in jail and there will be fewer of them to police against.
The FED criminals federalreserve pay for it and put it on their ever expanding balance sheet?
It’s all CCP’s tricks; CCP must be sanctioned, otherwise the world is a terrorist attack!!!ACTION! ACTION! ACTION!!!SOS

This has to change.
More indigenous women are being killed then black women is a statistical fact. The statistics get deeper when you look at the race majority of crime overall.
I want to know where the evidence for a black man is killed by police every 40 hours. I've searched hard and far and havent found 1 source to back that statement
They shop wholesale clubs online.
Might mention -- * Programs arose out of 9/11 for terrorism preparedness. * Armored vehicles and enhanced body armor are critical in protecting officers from criminals with assault weapons. * Fed govt subsidizes industry to maintain production capacity for war preparedness.
Which is it? Headline says $5b? Video says $20b? Reminding me of the fictional Sen. Iselin in the Manchurian Candidate changing the numbers of communists in the Defense Department.
2009 was a big year for upgrades...
Who cares when they watch communities be destroyed anyways
Hand me downs, not only military equipment but intelligence gathering equipment and training too
Perhaps bring the weapons back after the next war, I've watched Lord Of War.
Cause we allocate a massive % of our budget to defense spending and military procurement contracts with weapon manufacturers instead of reinvesting in our communities.
Hand-me-downs from OIF
If gringos keep misbehaving then we're going to need to become a police state just to survive.
Now do police unions and who fights to keep them and qualified immunity in place.
Um...CNBC...um it’s called crime.
So I do feel police need these weapons as long as civilians have access to military style weapons.
Look up the Miami bank shoot out and you will see why
Police use small pistols to face people's rifles and machine guns?
How about some balance noting (a) armored vehicles are necessary bc of the prevalence of assault weapons among criminals, and (b) the feds subsidize this so our weapons manufacturers are fully capable of ramping up production for war and to counter potential terrorism?
Yesterday's version said $20 billion industry. Which is it ?
they had to find a schlep to buy the leftover used iraqi equipment
“...In some cases, equipment transferred through these programs has simply vanished due to an apparent lack of oversight and poor bookkeeping...” Fantastic
Right, right, those militarized knees to the neck
People who read CNBC are what?
The criminals keep getting more and more violent. The police are just trying to catch up.
This is such BS story. They (police) are still under equipped and often under armed against the threats they face. Live in their shoes for a day, your opinion will change, I have no doubt.
Boys and their toys🤷🏼♀️
When the police are asked to fight against neomarxist revolutionaries, they need to win decisively and with overwhelming power. Period.
It’s called military surplus. The government doesn’t need to pay for equipment they already bought, they’re just reallocating it.
