      It is what Charlie would’ve wanted. Brutally repressing people’s rights.

    I grew up an hour south of Memphis and am very familiar with the city. The scale of organized crime in Memphis is incredible and it goes up and down the I-55 corridor. I wish I could find the picture from a few years ago in Memphis where a passenger in a vehicle was leaning out of the window holding a rocket propelled grenade launcher.

    Welcome to Kandahar Memphis!

      the mob still has to operate in secret, it’s not like everyone’s standing around going, “gee if only the national guard were here there’d be no organized crime!”

      if it were that easy the national guard would’ve been on tour since prohibition

      Seems like a problem for law enforcement, the state government, and the FBI. It does not seem like an insurrection so it is not something the DoD should engage with because the DoD should not be doing law enforcement. Organized criminals are not enemy combatants.

    “Join the National Guard and sweep leaves in many American cities, be hated by the locals. Pay negotiable (if you get any LOL).”

    Did ICE already meet their “execute people in the middle of the street” quota for Chicago?

      I’d be willing to bet it’s because of the legal pushback they’re getting for sending the national guard into states that don’t want it.

      Also I think even the WH wants to avoid the optics of one state’s National Guard blocking another. Which is a possibility in a Democrat-run state. This is making me nervous because I’m in adjacent Arkansas with very cooperative Sarah Sanders and the high-crime-rate LIttle Rock… fuck me

        He only wants Democratic cities in Democratic states. Arkansas already surrendered easily, and is already under voluntary MAGA control.

    It’s literally the dumbest shit ever. What happens with crime after the Nasty Girls pull out? How do you expect to fix crime if there isn’t a constant presence?
