I get the whole conservative/libertarian position when it comes to this type of thing. Normally, I'm right there with you. But this is different. Our cities are being taken over by criminals. Elected officials are turning their backs and not doing their jobs. The president refuses to let this country rot from within and be taken over by a bunch of socialist thug criminals. Good for him.


This. I used to live in Memphis and it’s city government is a cesspool of corruption.

This is the current DA of Memphis:

Steve Mulroy

I know people who studied law under him at the University of Memphis. He’s an open Communist

Sorry but calling out your bs.

Under 10 U.S.C. § 12406, The President may call members and units of any State’s National Guard into federal service to execute the laws.

This has actually been done more times by Democratic Presidents than by Republican Presidents. Doesn't matter whether the governor likes it or not, and is nothing new youngster.

Memphis has problems that can’t just be cleaned up with ‘more police’

There probably aren't more than 5-6 posters here either old enough or familiar enough with history to know what you're talking about.

Last time I was on Beale St at night, it looked like an HBU step off.

People keep using the word “communist” to refer to anything that they don’t like.

It’s annoying.

Last I checked there aren’t any command economies in the United States and private property rights exist.

Oh hell no, I lived in Memphis, clean it up. Thank heavens for the Feds.

I’m from Memphis. Sending in the national guard won’t fix anything. They’d need the entire US army to cast a net over Shelby County and leave them there for a decade.

You don’t know Memphis. We don’t really show all the real numbers especially in certain areas of town.

Cooking crime stats in the democrats way. Even as the citizens are screaming and dying in the streets.

I haven't actually heard of any murders in BR lately. I know they've happened, I just haven't been paying attention.

Biden voter?

If the Democratic officials that run these cities won’t step up and make them safe for everyone then why not?

Criminals need to be in prison not in the streets you shouldn’t have to worry about getting carjacked robbed or killed while getting gas or eating out

Memphis could be a great city at 1 time it was.

White flight happened because of the crime and changes to the demographics.

German town is where they 1st moved to now South Heaven Miss.

The rest of Memphis is dangerous if you’re not careful.

You don't believe there were any private property rights in Russia when Germany sent Vladimir Lenin back to Russia and financed his overthrow of the Russian government?

Pretend for a minute that a Democrat was in office


I would be all for him sending in troops into areas where Republican mayors are allowing conservative gangs to shoot up malls, ransack walmarts, loot CVS pharmacies and otherwise terrorize the populace.

I mean, as long as we're 'pretending'.
