It’s not like they were shot trying to stop a carjacking…this was a nut job who drove 2000 miles.

This should be obvious to people, but the Trump administration and their various propaganda outlets have turned the truth to mush.

This was not "DC crime." It was a horrible act of terrorism that wouldn't even have been possible had Trump not engaged in this stupid vanity project with the National Guard. Jeanine Pirro said this morning that the two guardsman who were shot had just been sworn in. They are 20 and 24 years old. Completely senseless.

If Trump hadn't had the national guard in DC, this wouldn't have happened.
If Trump hadn't betrayed his family, this wouldn't have happened.

But somehow, this is Biden's fault and a liberal city will be paying the price with even more National Guard troops that don't need to be here.

We can play this game all day long.

If Dems would have gotten crime under control, national guard wouldnt have been deployed to DC in the first place.

If Dems hadn't imported hundreds of thousands of Afghans, this guy would have never been here in the first place.

Ultimately however, shooter is the one responsible for his own actions.

It cannot be repeated enough: The guard plays no law enforcement role in DC. They are there for performative reasons only. Also yard work, I guess.

NG are not trained for law enforcement. They are not allowed to arrest people. They are not authorized to use force. They are for show.

The crime issue in DC is totally separate from this incident. Crime in DC is a problem, it does require solutions. The NG is not a solution, and this incident was not the result of DC crime. The perpetrator was a terrorist who traveled to DC to shoot guardsman he know to be there because Trump's NG stunt in DC has been highly publicized.

Well they are there for a visual deterrent, so they do serve a purpose. The idea being many criminals don't continue with a carjacking if there is military police across the street. But yes, since you brought it up, let's add another one- If media hadn't hysterically conflated the NG, unlawful orders and ICE, it would have never happened. Shooter's immigration status was in question, so it's plausible he thought the "nazi" NG was about to deport him.

Why aren't they putting the "visual deterrent" in actual high crime hotspots then?

So should we kick out every Republican because the right statistically commits more acts of violence than the left?

How do you even know what media the shooter consumes? Your theory is whack.

You don’t know how this works, do you?

Political violence, yes the right is more violent. If you sre on the right, you are on the side more likely to commit political violence (and no, whatever random anecdote you use, anecdotes do not contradict statistics)

“Breaking: Google searches indicate that DC shooter's name was searched many times hours before the shooting. It's possible it was to see if the task had been completed.

Source: Google Trends”

Now, this might seem like conspiracy theory territory, but is there anything that’s beyond this administration?
