Feds in Chicago

quote:

Sessions subsequently released a written statement saying the administration has created the Chicago Gun Strike Force and is sending “20 more permanent ATF agents to Chicago, reallocating federal prosecutors and prioritizing prosecutions to reduce gun violence” and working with law enforcement partners.



That said, WWL 870 AM was reporting this morning that Trump said that New Orleans is next in so many words.

I honestly don't know what's best to fix the problem, but isn't that exactly what the federal government is here for? To come in if Local/State govt. can't figure it out. It's obvious that our local officials will be opposed to this with (some) good reason. But, where do you stand?

Our govt is supposed to work for us. I say, let er rip! When I have to be concerned about getting shot driving through New Orleans East (while on the fricking Interstate), it's time for something stronger...hopefully, without the bullshite.

Might as well stop by Little Rock on the way down and see if they can do any good there while they're at it.

It sure is refreshing to see a POTUS recognize actual problems Americans face and do something about them.

Get then down there before football season. Don't want crowds to think the sound of multiple gunshots is no big deal.

NOLA needs more assets.

Other than Saints home games, I have rarely been to New Orleans since the national guard pulled out. It may take them coming back before I do anything outside of Saints games again. frick that shite hole.

The Feds play a very important role in crime
In New Orleans. I'm also told Trumps actions have indirectly hindered the prosecution of crimes here( I voted for him calm down repubs) Because the lack of US Attorneys caused when Trump fired most of the hold overs there have been almost no new inditements in the Eastern District. Thus some of the hardened criminals are getting a pass while Trump works to hire attorneys. Plus the Feds have the power to do sweeping raids under RICO that can take out complete gangs at once that also Isn't happening at the moment.

Would be hilarious to see Trump and the Feds cut Mitch's presidential hopes off at the knees with a move like this.

Funny if Obama or Hillary was doing this you republicans would be claiming they are coming to take away your guns.
