Pigs trying to intimidate people living in the projects.

FROM THE NEWSWIRE: A video of the APD doing a walk-through of Pisgah View Apts., a local housing project, one officer is carrying an AR-15 semi-automatic assault rifle. He refered to it as his piece maker.

This apparently happens somewhat regularly in PVA. The locals of the neighborhood have a lot to deal with. The police presence is intense and the when the police use such tactics as a means to intimidate people, its no wonder the community is afraid of the police.
