I'm not sure what you're trying to show with this photograph (it's of a deployed SWAT-style police team, with armoured vehicle) though? That there are incidents in the US that require armed response teams? The fact that you had to obtain a picture from a national news source, taken during an on-going crowd-control/rioting incident means this is an unusual situation, not indicitave of 'Police State America', and is just compunding the insulting comparision.

Try looking at photographs of city streets taken during a normal working day, and note the absence of APCs and riot police. A police state is a very different thing to the situation in the USA or the UK.
