Seems MRAPs are still allowed. That's fair I suppose, depending on need. I just wish they'd attach a condition that recipients must not plaster "Special Operations" (or similar bullshit) on the vehicles.

Fortunately surplus camouflage uniforms were restricted, though there's nothing stopping police from purchasing their own camouflage uniforms independently.

Paint/dye everything pink before transferring it to the police, and require that it remain pink. Pink is known to reduce aggression.
