SWAT team called in after shots fired at police officers

I'd never thought about the multi-jurisdictional concept, seems like a pretty good idea. I disagree, however, with the idea that has often been floated around that SWAT should become full time and in their "down time" do something similar to what VIPER is currently doing. It's two totally different jobs and just because someone may be good at one certainly doesn't mean they'd be good at the other.
