such viciousness. The grant monies for community policing were stopped and the only grants coming from the federal government for LEO was the anti-terrorism money. That money was given to departments for anti-terrorism training and weapons. The training fostered the "us versus them" thinking that has infected LEO. The money for the training went to departments that in turn paid private industries to put on seminars or conferences on anti-terrorism. LEO was no longer concerned with serving the public as much as it was concerned with all the "evil" hiding in the shadows.
