Sharon 🤦🏾♀️ Persists on Nostr: Very creepy seeing all the superfluous national guard troops roaming around ...
Very creepy seeing all the superfluous national guard troops roaming around Washington, DC's Union Station. Brings back memories to me of the days in NYC just after the 9/11 terrorist attacks when there was actual fear in the air. Today, these young men & women in fatigues with guns just look silly & bored. Crime rates in DC were already way down before they showed up. There is no point to their deployment in Blue cities. Plus, they're costing a lot to taxpayers. #nationalguard #dc
