Trump pushes for more federal law enforcement in DC

You should be too.

 

Why are the "sigma males" of the right so scared of their own shadow?

"Don't tread on me" somehow equates to "Please deploy troops to American cities like North Korea"

 

That guy going to need an ACL fix

 

More winning?

 

I was going to post about this. Many people watch Fox News all day, every day (or Newsmax, etc.), which frequently shows and discusses violent incidents. They run clips like the attack in Cincinnati on a loop for hours. It’s natural for viewers to feel fearful—and to buy more guns, carry them, scared of cities etc. it’s natural if someone watches all that.

 

Thank you, exactly!!! X is not a good source to base one’s understanding. There are bots, and state run troll farms disseminating false info.

 

He knows that and gets called out on it all the time

 

You know this is going to be appealed and the Trump Admin is likely going to win, correct?

I do not agree with everything the Trump Admin is doing but under the law any POTUS Admin has the legal right to overrule DC Home Rule for 30 days since it is the only city in the country that fall under the federal government by design?

I understand and agree with many of the arguments against why what the Trump Admin is doing is and how it is not a long term solution to the issues they cite for invoking the emergency powers. But I think a lot of posters should pay attention to Mayor Bowser's statements earlier in the week about how the Admin has the right to do it.

I just wish everyone involved would say that this is a 30 day emergency order and that they will see if there are any significant differences in DC at the end of the 30 days. At that point Congress has to get involved and I seriously doubt it will they will vote to extend it.

 

I think this earlier post pretty much explains your question.

Most are not that afraid for themselves but for their loved ones. That said I'm not one to go looking for trouble but if it is just me in most cases I will stand my ground. I'm for sure not going to move my loved ones into a bad area. Does that make me some kind of a puss who is scared of his own shadow?

 

DEA agents were patrolling the Wharf last night. DEA. What a waste of resources
