Note that the violence, as usual, is almost entirely on the part of the cops

        Marines aren’t allowed to wear their cammies off base while doing errands between work and off base housing. They can stop under limited circumstances, like filling up gas if absolutely necessary, and drive thru stuff is fine. The reasoning for this is because cammies are the Corps war-fighting uniform, and the Marine Corps doesn’t wage war on US soil. This is instilled in boot camp, through SOI, and especially when you hit the fleet.

        It’ll be interesting to see what comes of this.

      In the past a guy with a clipboard would walk into a restaurant to talk to the owner about how many fines they would be getting. That should be all it takes. If you want to actually catch people, you set up at the exits before Mr clipboard goes in.

      Rolling in swat style is looking to pick a fight.
