Stockton Mayor Christina Fugazi is asking for federal help to take on gang violence in the aftermath of the mass shooting at a children's birthday party.

While investigators have not confirmed the shooting was gang-related, Fugazi said she believes it was and said the brazen nature of the crime requires a strong federal response.

"It's babies we're talking about, children," Fugazi said. "We're talking about a cake being cut as bullets are ringing out. The candles have been blown out, you're cutting the cake, and then bullets are flying out, piercing, going through flesh and killing four people."

We need more, we need more," Fugazi said. "We want to be their pilot site for the United States of America. Come to Stockton, we're here ready with our arms open for you to come into our city and let us lead them, the nation on how to do it right."

Stockton, CA?

This'll be fun. Newsome is going to throw a tantrum and probably go to court to keep Trump out, which will create so much fodder.

"Newsome hates Trump so much, he would rather let children die than let Trump help Stockton."

It's gonns be great. Newsome is in a lose-lpse situation that he created. Gotta love it when Dems piss down their leg.

Omg. Newsome is pissed.

Here is a chance for Trump to do things in a liberal state and cut down on crime.

He can also send ice in and clear it out.

Stockton has been identified by the federal government, including the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Department of Justice, as a "sanctuary jurisdiction" due to policies that limit cooperation with federal immigration enforcement.

I was wondering the same... I'm guessing maybe newer residents didn't want to live in chaos. I'm only judging this by her campaign group photo on her website- it is diverse, excepting a certain demographic.

First thing the federal govt would do is start rounding up illegal gang bangers and the mayor and city would all cry about it and want the govt gone.

She doesn't want help. She wants money.

"I am calling on the full power of the federal government not only to stop crime but also to give our community the tools to prevent crime before it starts. We propose an anti-crime and human-development program called The Communiy Impact Program that brings appropriate resources from the Department of Health and Human Services, the Department of Housing and Urban Development, the Department of Justice, the Department of Education, the Department of Labor, the Department of Agriculture, the Department of Transportation, the Department of the Treasury, the Department of Commerce, the Department of Veterans Affairs, and the Department of the Interior directly into Stockton so we can build a safer, healthier, more resilient community."
