I have been in the Army and it is a strong surreal feeling to be marching with 1000s of others with weapons, all in step, knowing you and your buddies could kick anyone's ass that dares say anything to you. And the people of your country will back you up, right or wrong. Law enforcement is no different.
I think there's a lot of truth in that. I've seen enough of it myself to know that.
But it's a giant leap from that to "the CIA/FBI itself has executed every mass shooting and now this bombing too because they intentionally want to kill us to convince us to want our rights taken away".
