I think we are doing the right thing bringing America back to the 18th century, I'd be interested to see Ilhan Omar demanding satisfaction.

It's easy for me to say, having been separated for 20+ years, but I would not be reporting for National Guard duty if it was for this city law enforcement dog and pony show. They told us dozens of times about not obeying illegal orders, and that we were never to do police work.
