Keene Mayor Kendall Lane: “We’re going to have our own tank.”

It appears from the Cheshire TV video from December 8th, 2011 where they were discussing the BEARCAT, that then-city-councilor Kendall Lane leans to Mitch Greenwald and says to him, “We’re going to have our own tank.“. Here’s the clip, taken from the full length video of the discussion and amplified to make it easier to hear. If you’d like to see the clip in context, please see the full video – the clip happens at 2 mins in:

Hopefully, that "passion" will translate into the government doing one thing right.

I like results.

Excellent. Always a hat-tip when your opponent has to give you respect (even if grudgingly) for your efforts. I see this as a win-win. Either the council does the better thing, and turns down this silly APC, or they openly defy the obvious opinion of the general public whom they claim to represent, which will wake some folks up to the ridiculousness of the government's claim in that regard. Whichever of those choices the council makes, it is a win for liberty… Also, as an additional comment, I find it amusing how the trolls have been adamantly opposed to the… Read more »

Hmm…hard to tell the cops from military these days isn't it?

Federal Grants must be magic, you know like "free money".

wow… Man!, a PICTURE of the KEENE pd with arms folded behind the Purveyor of war machines.

"we must protect the man we REALLY care about " The war machine seller..

That sound like a powerful picture.

Um we should definitely show up at the council meeting because though there ARE tv cameras , people should be there with signs : EYES looking at them as they cram this war machine down keene's throat

The LENCO salesmen was just shining you on… it's a tactic.

I could see that Thom, but why? Why would he do that ; to what ends?

I really see no motivation for him…..which makes me tend toward the blogger's view.

Tom Sawyer

I'm not saying that it wasn't true… I'm saying the way for him to deescalate the situation was to act like we aren't at cross purposes. He wants less opposition to his sales.

HA! Yeah, only here in safe little Keene could the FreeWeenie Rabble and Riff-Raff Club find safe sanctuary. If ya told the TRUTH, Ian, you’d point out that there are other BearCat models that are dedicated SWAT Trucks, with battering rams and weapons. But that is NOT the model BearCat Keene is getting. Keene is getting one that is NBC / CBRNE capable. That means it has monitoring and detection equipment for various chemical, nuclear&radiological, biological, and explosive materials. If a tanker truck carrying flammable chemicals collides with a truck carrying hospital – grade radioactive waste, and there’s release of… Read more »

Start letters of protest to Congressman Bass, Senators Shaheen and Yyotte. Your so call representation in Washington approved funding the LENCO7w2, to enslave you, future generations, . Tell them you want the grant rescind NOW, not tomorrow. The grant was not theirs to give away. Grant money is your tax money. It is an election, all of you can impact the outcome.

This thing would be easily defeated by anyone that had the inkling to do so with about 5 dollars worth of ammunition (to snipe out the gunner) and about $25 worth of gasoline (to roast the morons inside that thought it would keep them safe)

There a lot of incidents of toxic chemical tankers colliding with radioactive waste trucks in Keene, Slave King? Or are you just jumping at the opportunity to go full retard in fellating the state on this?

@David Chessler

Wow you’re smart aren’t you? No gun you can buy would pierce the bulletproof glass on a Bearcat. I’m sure it’s fire resistant too.
