Be that as it may in this particular case we know he actually did serve the interests of the US. |
| I am really disturbed by this crime. |
Why do people always assume MAGA folks are rednecks? Look at the Trump admin, the billionaire toadies, the congressional acolytes. Are all of those “meemaw” people? |
Me too using National Guard this way is irresponsible now they have died because of an irresponsible deployment. When you lead the military you don’t use them for political gain, |
Sincere question: how do you know? Are there firm stats on this? And even if you can prove that they "accomplished a lot to reduce crime," what is the long-term plan? Have troops on the streets of blue cities permanently? I mean, Covid and the shutdowns lowered certain types of crimes significantly but no one wants to go through that again. |
His identity was know. He didn't come as a refugee. He was also vetted under Trump before being granted asylum. |
Statistically speaking: Rednecks or maga Those that are not rednecks are under educated. Those that are educated are highly religious, which makes you susceptible to to believing in conspiracy theories. |
This^^^ People that don’t understand crime statistics don’t understand that occupation leads to a short term decrease in crime and a long-term increase in extremely violent crime. All they’ve done is put these communities in a situation where in two years they are going to see an unbelievable uptake in crime |
Sincere answer: you clearly wouldn’t be persuaded by any data because you don’t want to be, but if you were open to the truth, you’d know by now. Long term is a better question. I am ok with NG staying in Memphis as long as it takes, though. We don’t have to just live with sky high murder rates forever. We can do things. |
How would I magically “know by now? I don’t live in Memphis. Do you? I actually have firsthand experience with the effect of troops on local crime rates because I lived in a dictatorship under martial law. There was very little visible crime. But eventually, when martial law was lifted, crime rates started going up again. |
The guy who threatened to invade Greenland? The guy who's threatening to invade Nigeria, Colombia, Venezela and Mexico? He's anti-war? LMAOOO! |
Yep, he's wasting a ton of taxpayer money on these troop deployments, and long-term it doesn't solve anything because he's not dealing with the underlying causes. |
| The US military literally trained this man as a child soldier for a death squad in a forever war and Stephen Miller and MAGA want to blame it on other cultures? It's our culture, American culture, that killed the victim and maimed the other. |
News flash, this is just how we operate. Look at past conflicts and what happened to all the people that sided with us against their own governments/people. You have to be a special kind of dumb to side with America in a conflict. Just wait until we run out of Ukrainians to throw at Russia. What's left of them will be incredibly mad at the inevitable selling out. We've been saying since the 70s that being America's ally is fatal... |
The rubes believe his lies. |
