Wrong assumption. The federal government also has a responsibility to protect the people from insurrections. You should read the US Constitution instead of just repeating ignorant nonsense that you find on the Internet.
Article 1. Section 8.
"The Congress shall ...To provide for calling forth the militia to execute the laws of the union, suppress insurrections and repel invasions;"
Article IV. Section 4.
"The United States shall guarantee to every state in this union a republican form of government, and shall protect each of them against invasion; and on application of the legislature, or of the executive (when the legislature cannot be convened) against domestic violence."

In my opinion, you could have left out that part of your comment and maybe had an intelligent conversation. Frankly I agree with SOS in that it is indeed part of local governments job to preserve order in their jurisdictions. Our President faces a good deal of risk if he is forced by inaction of lower jurisdictions, to crack down on cities or states siding with anarchy. The media will have a field day with any show of force by those who should be fighting this ongoing lawlessness. We are in a very precarious position right now as I see it. Any show of force by the Fed and orange man gets the fall out from media, our enemy.
