She must be a racist, since most of the guns they will be looking for are in the possession of gang members. /s

"This was the endgame all along... a national police force."

Bingo! Controlled by the Damned-O-Crat party, just like the FIB.

Tough for a law-abiding citizen to get a CCW in that state and city (”may issue”). Lots of long guns around, in the suburbs. Only criminals and cops have the handguns, until you go downstate. There are plenty there.

The only thing Washington could do effectively is send the army and go house to house in certain neighborhoods and arrest for tribunals everyone found to be in violation of drug and weapon laws and parole and probation.

First FedGov would need to arrest the mayor and most of the city and state government and subject them to tribunals.

That’s what would need to be done, but then we’d be Nazi Germany or Australia...

My favorite toon this week is a black female doctor with one of those medical ear flashlights looking in Bidens ear. The light shines all the way through his head and onto the wall next to him.

Some enterprising someone ought to substitute Light Brains for Biden.

Left-Dim state and local failures bleed into demand for federal help/money/support solutions that bleed into additional federal laws, regs and control. That is the way of the Left and the Dims are just their fools and tools and have been since the 1940s.

I am not advocating that, just saying that is the only way that the crap can be cleaned up given the political systems and the voters in the criminal cities. They are beyond redemption in any sort of Constitutional or democratic way. A A century and a half ago the situations in Chicago, Baltimore et al would have seen the rise of ad hoc vigilante groups.

Now, I don’t really have a problem with vigilantes ‘taking care’ of the problem.

ALL perps need to be removed from the streets, until the prisons overflow; then build some more.
