Channel 9 News Date 1/13/10

Channel nine news reported that all police El Paso police squads are allowed to purchase M4 machine guns each costing at least seventy five thousand five hundred dollars that is a significant amount of money spent on weapons when that could be spent on many other things. The way this effects the economy is that the companies who manufacture these weapons make a lot of money from this area most likely many police will buy these weapons and probably they will allow the police to use more different weapons depending on how the police handle and use these weapons.

Oh wow, really i didn't hear about that. I think that the police just want to spend money, i think we could use that more for educational purposes.
