Donald Trump has national guard soldiers helping to stop homelessness in DC.

In my personal subjective view, this a very dangerous situation, as using any military for local law enforcement turns the average person into an enemy combatant. Militarized police are a stepping stone to government authoritarianism and over-reach of power.

I am NOT opposed to using the guard in actual crisis situations, such as the previous riots in LA.

I am NOT saying that homelessness is not a serious problem, or being handled by Democrats wrong.

I AM saying this is not the appropriate use of Trump's power. And homeless people sleeping in public is not the same type of violent crisis that the previous LA riots were.

I would usually agree with that statement but are you aware that Washington is outside the feds jurisdiction? It is like the city of London and the Vatican. So the "ruse" of helping homeless is a excuse to seize control of an alien state. Whether that's right or wrong is debatable.

that may be so, it's a fair view
