Wow really they need all that for a CM ride? How much did that cost?
As for the people lying on the stand I hope charges are filed at once.
From the article, they don't need that many resources to cover CM, which is what the article said. They were there because another group joined the ride that they felt they needed to watch. CM seemed to be doing fine with just one officer following along.
