A large portion of the ones I see, at least in LP, are.You do realize not every LEO is automatically allowed to just tint their windows. I know of 2 departments that only allow it for certain positions.
I know more LEOs that wanted tint and were told no than I know that actually have tint.
Regardless, even if it were a very small % of vehicles, then those vehicles are a danger to the public. If the public, or anyone else cannot drive safely with tinted windows then it's safe to say the same would apply to anyone else operating a vehicle on public roads. Even if only 1 person dies as a result of window tint on a government vehicle, that is too much. Am I right? Is this not the line always being pushed about safety? The theorized goal of public safety is 0 preventable deaths, no? Especially when we are talking about the government, or more specifically law enforcement, where the stated intended goal is to protect and serve. Driving around with dangerous window tint is not protecting, quite the opposite.
I'll repeat my opinion on why this hypocrisy exists. This law is not about safety, it is about privacy. Anytime you want to know if the government is acting in your best interests, check to see if what they are pushing is 'for your safety'; decent probability you are being bamboozled.
