I totally agree.
I have and will continue to teach LEO's to place lead on tgt, but will not teach tactics, techniques or procedures.

Teaching marksmanship is a good thing.
American Soldiers teaching LEOs to assault and kill other Americans is a bad idea.
We have heavily armed SWAT teams in towns of less than 10,000 people, with fewer full time officers than an ODA, and multiple teams in counties and municipalities.
When the only tool that you have is a hammer, all problems tend to look like nails. When you have a tactical unit, it is always one of the early options to be considered.
Posse Comitatus exists for a good reason, and I would consider adding teaching TTP to that list.
Just my .02.
