“I can’t imagine any use for bayonets in an urban setting,” stated Sen. Rand Paul to Senate Homeland Security Committee at a hearing last year.
“I can’t answer what a local police force would use a bayonet for,” Alan Estevez said.
Paul snapped back “None”
Rand Paul is completely correct, of course, that there is no need for bayonets in local law enforcement. Bayonets are for hand-to-hand combat in battle and the only purpose is to kill.

Great question…. & WHY do “Local” police forces – ALL need Armored vehicles and Large Cache of weapons & Ammo????
The photo is not of a local police officer. It’s a foreign country military police officer learning bayonet training. Learn which news media is true or faux, will you please???
It’s nothing more that an equalizer…
When Obama & his Muslim brothers takes over America.!!!
I suggest using them to kill rioters………………..by the thousands.
Agreed
Stop rioters?
It’s $#%&!@* like this that is pushing away from Rand. I couldn’t stand his father and it looks like the acorn didn’t fall far from the tree.
Horrific days approaching….
The military doesn’t even do bayonet training anymore.
