I couldn't help but notice that the place where I live got everything in extremely large quantities. In fact, searching around the map I can only find one or two places that even came close.

I’m ecstatic that the copfuks in my county now have a $733,000 Mine Resistant Vehicle and a $245,000 Armored Personnel Carrier. I sure hope they will be able to clear all the land mines in my upper class suburban county. I really feel safe knowing the police have these vehicles.

Let’s hear what goodies the copfuks have in your Counties.

I suspect that's not a complete list.
