Times when you really want a SWAT team...

1. The bust is in a Denny's.

2. The subject is a 74YO woman, unarmed, less than five feet tall.

3. The crime is the attempted sale of a piece of government-claimed dust.

Criminy, those poor, heroic cops and the dangers they expose themselves to for our safety. I hope they had a Predator drone over the site, in case things got out of hand.

H/T to Alphecca.

I am sorry this happened to her. But glad the State is peeling off its smiley face mask more and more, revealing the true reptile beneath.

This is actually kinda sad. NASA's SWAT guys used to be some of the creme de la creme of fed.gov ninjas, tasked with repelling the attacks of Rooskie spies and saboteurs on our sensitive launch facilities. Now they're rousting geriatrics in all-night diners for specks of dirt.

It's as petty as if they'd used the 82nd Airborne, the 75th Rangers, and SEAL Team 6 used to invade some tiny Caribbean island... Oh, wait...
