As per a point made in comments….I do NOT support our current President sending troops to crime ridden cities in order to quell crime…be they Regular Military of National Guard,. That is up to the states and until, and unless, the states (governors) request it, it is not under the purview of the feds to take over of the policing of our Democrat (or any other) led cities.
In addition, I think asking National Guardsmen to be police is idiotic and unfair to the troops.
YMMV.
How many lives must be lost before the states take action???
I think the National Guard has been misused since the early 2000s when they could be deployed for over two years without a break whereas regular military had constraints on deployment. Nor are they trained to be police officers–it’s a different skillset.
