	Y is it that most of the time police use machine guns during dangerous criminal situations but they VERY RARELY carry grenade launchers (at least for my knowledge)? E.G During a riot in Vancouver, I noticed police used GL-06 grenade launchers to shoot smoke bombs at the crowd to make arrests easier. But in most crime scenes like in the movie T3: ROTM, police carry machine guns to shoot the T-850 and smoke bombs (to smoke out Katie and get her to safety) but no grenade launchers. It isn't adding up/making any sense for me whatsoever. And also, Y is it that police/SWAT don't use heavy weapons? Such as miniguns, bazookas, missile launchers, tanks, and turret mounted vehicles like police cars and SUVs etc.? I know they carry machine guns and grenade launchers, but it still dosent add things up/make any sense whatsoever. Any advice?--Gunnerboy 11:01 October 6 2012		Y is it that most of the time police use machine guns during dangerous criminal situations but they VERY RARELY carry grenade launchers (at least for my knowledge)?
