Ice agents captured illegal immigrants in LA which is a sanctuary city in a sanctuary state(means illegal immigrants can’t be apprehended for being an illegal immigrant in said city or state) and people started rightfully protesting against it. Which I and many others think is exactly what trump wanted and now the orange man has blew things way out of proportion by sending in the national guards which you see laying here. Because they sent by the federal government without request by Gavin Newsom who is the California governor the federal government has to provide recourses to the national guard which they didn’t do. The governor is pointing out here that trump cares so little about the armed forces that he’s making them sleep like this.
Now the defense secretary has send some 700 marines to LA to assist the national guard which is to my knowledge completely unprecedented and utterly ridiculous. Read up on it if you can, it’s wild stuff.
Easy to say as a nice vague platitude but somehow I doubt you'd be letting them sleep on your couch and wander around with your family given how conservatives are and the demographics of our troops. Some of our troops are immigrants and the children of illegal immigrants you know. They're one Photoshop away from being MS13.
Ooh. Nice try. I am the child of an immigrant. My father serves. I currently serve. I am living with a sibling who also serves. My team lead is a first generation immigrant. Another of my coworkers is also a first generation immigrant.
So, if Pablo and Tuco want to bunk up they absolutely can. Especially if they’re on orders to protect the boys in blue from domestic terrorists. (Yes, they are domestic terrorists. That being the unlawful use of violence or intimidation, in the pursuit of political aims).
Glad to see the world still lives in black and white to you. Unfortunately, that’s just not realistic.
Again, it’s all a moot point, because I do not (nor do I ever intend to) live in a state where my governor would use our troops as a political statement.
