The box I saw in a troopers SUV at HSC was on the drivers side rear in a locked steel box.if it's a setup like this and you know how to pull pins......it's gone
It is to legitimize the use of a "weapon of WARRRRR" which is designed to kill as many people as quickly as possible and will cut a human torso in half with one shot.You notice they use the term "patrol rifle" as it would be less alarming to the sheeple when we all know it's an AR15.
Mass state police are putting assault weapons in the hands of criminals!
This officer was reckless, and endangered the lives of millions in the commonwealth. I would like to see the law upheld here. If they don't enforce this law. I would hope they over turn it. If you don't want to enforce the laws, get rid of them. No more double standards.General Law - Part I, Title XX, Chapter 140, Section 131L

Maybe we can get a Class action lawsuit going ? The citizens of the commonwealth have been Irreparably damaged. This has caused psychological pain & anguish.They wouldn’t charge one of their own over this sort of thing. Unless, of course, some gets a hair up their butt.

Omaka or the cops?Holy boobs................................................. Sorry, meant to say BOOBS
Lots of cruisers have internal and external dash cams.I’ll just as likely believe it was the cop who stole it and is covering it up with a fake theft story as someone actually stealing it. They are liars and should not be trusted. If it was stolen, good. Schadenfreude.
BPD has special "gun cars" for patrol rifles.99% certain Boston definitely does. Menino made a big stink about not wanting machine guns on his streets. They might even still use something other than AR pattern rifles, not sure.
Most do because it's a lot less paperwork.would be fun to know what town chooses an ar15 over m16.
No NFA transfers and paperwork.
How so?
Wait until it assaults someone. All by itself.
What ever happened to that guy?Santa?
Cruise?
What a relief! Wouldn't want to wake all the rich folks if you gotta use it.I was on Martha’s Vineyard last year.
Town cop had a suppressor on his (cough) patrol rifle in the front seat of his town (not state) cruiser.
Love the hypocrisy.
Guns and suppressors for me but no for thy
Bite me!
One more piece of paper isn't the real issue, they're more concerned with the leftist city and town folk screaming about machineguns, it throws a monkey wrench into their virtue signaling.No NFA transfers and paperwork.
