DESCRIPTION:http://www.ebparks.org/about/meetings\n\nfrom the board agenda:\n \nC. 
 BUSINESS BEFORE THE BOARD\n  1. CONSENT CALENDAR\n    d. Authorization to 
 Enter into a Contract with TASER International for Phase One Replacement of 
 TASER Devices: Public Safety Division \n \nThis is an elected board because 
 they can and do levy property taxes.  If you own a house or if you rent, 
 you pay property taxes.  Show up or correspond with your representative on 
 this board and tell them NO.\n\nThis is not about the Orwellian 
 "less-than-lethal" weaponry, the EBRPD has an armored assault vehicle and 
 serious old-school lethal weaponry at it's disposal.  It currently has the 
 new-school lethal TASER weaponry but we are to assume it's getting a little 
 long-in-the-tooth and needs to be replaced and/or upgraded.  Have these 
 directors not been paying attention to what has been happening with the 
 militarization & federalization of police forces since September 11, 2001?  
 This needs to stop and this is the perfect place & opportunity.\n\nBe wary. 
  Why does a regional park district need a police force?  While covering two 
 counties, both counties sheriffs are more than happy to expand their 
 duties.  Regional park districts want these forces because of what will be 
 enforced in the near future as the masses are cordoned off in the 
 "workforce" housing areas and will need money and/or permission to visit 
 more natural areas.\n
