After a car bombing, a major shoot out in the Wally World, the cops are pissed and taking action - starting to sound like a warzone, maybe in a sense it is:
"I'm sure there will some who will be upset," says Harrell, "but I believe in our police force. I know one of the officers who got shot. I go to church with his sisters. I'm for it, really."
Whether it's on city streets or on the interstate, Chief Paudert wants his officers to be able to match the fire power available to the bad guys.
The AR-15's, he says, won't be pointed directly at motorists. The backup officer will stand behind his or her police car, rifle in hand, at their ready.
And ready or not, Chief Paudert says drive through his town and get pulled over, you might just see one of their new guns.
"That's just the way it is," he says. "I mean, our times have changed. And we've got to change with our times. We cannot allow our officers to continue to be killed."
