midterms are coming up rapidly, and liberals are scrambling to save themselves!
The police have stood down because they are targeted by those who hate the police.
How will it be any different when the feds get in a shooting with a criminal?
I doubt it would be...... asking the Feds to do what your police department wisely chooses not to do given the level of support you provide them is simply kicking the can. They are just as likely (even more maybe given the lack of street experience) to be involved in a major incident as your own department.
