Two National Guard Soldiers in DC shot and killed.

A call for more guardsmen: Trump asked for 500 more National Guard troops to be deployed to DC following the shooting, but a federal judge ruled last week the president and the Defense Department illegally deployed the National Guard in the district.
 
1. DC's murder rate plummeted when the NG showed up in DC so lives were saved by the NG deployment in DC.

2.. Multiple assailant's beat up Big Balls including a
Not true, Trump lied (https://apnews.com/article/fact-che...tional-guard-334ba00ba226aac74f53760ec39c1713), and all the Guard did was patrol tourists areas and police the Mall

Trump only used his boy “big balls” assault as the excuse, if the same happened to a DC resident Donnie wouldn’t even notice
 
Fit what?
Question isn’t relevant. The point is we should not be militarizing society in the hope of increased security even if the hope is likely to be realized. Freedom has a price. In the late thirties Moscow and Berlin were safer cities than New York and San Francisco. I doubt you would have preferred them to live in.

Quite relevant. It's reality. You don't want to face it.
I'm assuming you'd retreat if you were CIC. Which is why you won't answer.

OK. That doesn't change today's reality.

Ha! They still are today. Are you saying that price is accepting violent crime?

Not sure why you bring up completely different historical situations. Are you insinuating we are on the verge of WW III ?

Editor's note: The West Virginia governor initially said that the 2 Guard members had died but has since said there is conflicting information about their conditions.

Two National Guard members from West Virginia were in critical condition Wednesday after a gunman opened fire on them in an apparent "targeted shooting" near the White House, officials said.

The suspect is believed to be from Afghanistan and to have entered the U.S. in 2021, law enforcement sources familiar with the matter told ABC News.

The Guard members were a woman and man, according to a law enforcement official briefed on the situation, and were being treated at local hospitals. The unidentified suspect rounded a corner, raised his arm with the weapon and opened fire about 2:15 p.m., MPD Executive Assistant Chief Jeffrey Carroll said.

"It appears … to be a lone gunman that raised a firearm and ambushed these members of the National Guard," he said.

He had already been complaining about the DC crime rate. He wanted to clean DC up. Before the Big Balls incident. There was a DC aide that got killed in a cross fire earlier this year Big Balls getting beat up was the last straw.

The suspect allegedly overstayed his visa and was in the country illegally at the time of the shooting, according to the report.
NN reported that Lakanwal lives in Washington State, with NBC reporting that his last known location prior to the attack was Bellingham, Washington.
Lurch Addams was just banned and hasn't been seen or heard from. :unsure:
 
You are suggesting that? Hmmm... maybe there is a chance that one day you too will realize that government is not the answer to every problem.
Nobody on the left ever claimed that it is

That's just another made up strawman argument by the right in an attempt to impugn the left.

Like that ".... guns don't get up and shoot people by themselves..." crap.

A nonsense response to a false argument which nobody ever made.

Typical right-wing trumper bullshit.

Attribute to the left, ridiculous claims nobody ever made to begin with, then heap ridicule on them.

Slimy right-wing propaganda.

LOL. Did you follow the post back to what Margot quoted? It was a tongue and cheek... referencing the question they answered with the post I quoted.
