Mayor Keith Wilson, speaking at a late-night press conference Friday, said, “We now have a sudden influx of federal agents in our city. We did not ask for them to come. They are here without precedent or purpose.”

Riots are occurring in the city over ICE arrests and the mayor says that federal troops aren't needed.

“and the mayor says that federal troops aren’t needed”

Well, they’re not needed if there is no effort to enforce, or even allow federal law. Or it you want to protect federal property, institutions and personnel.

However, that is not an option.

I strongly recommend the mayor not get in the way.
