Gbolarshow:
All I see is a very brutal truth. How will a Governor that can't control his state be dragging the President. Murder cases in your state week in week out. Mr President want to step in and clean up tyrants for him. what's bad? except you dont want the truth.

Alliswell248:
Everything is wrong with it.
Imagine Pbat calling out governors of opposition parties criminal and incompetent and sending troops to Abia , Anambra and Enugu.

nepapole:

Talks too much and most na nonsense.

Village idi*ot!

coldsummer:

Nnamdipapa:
A convicted criminal trying to get crime under control? Have you been living under a rock with daily mass shootings in the US since the Orange criminal became president? Is crime really under control in the USA?

MemoriesAndMe:
Correct.
Its actually everywhere, just more pronounced in some major cities like Detroit, Chicago, Atlanta, Baltimore etc. Those being mentioned in the post are not ran by Republican governors. Just like APC thinks a PDP governor is not ok. Just politics.

Gerrard59:
U.S. state governors have greater political power than their counterparts in Nigeria. So, why have they been incompetent?

Scholes007:
Pls I would want to know the best way you think these gun violence in US can be solved other than what the current administration is doing?

MemoriesAndMe:
It can't be solved bro. Everybody got guns already. How can any administration tell everyone to submit their guns? There's no limit to how many guns you can own in the US as long as you're not a felon. Even felons buy guns on the streets or order them through the dark web.

In my opinion, it's just impossible to get guns away from everyone in the US. The constitution supports it, so everyone just has to have it for personal protection. Some people just abuse their gun rights and those are the crazy ones we read about all the time doing all these crazy shootings.

There's nothing wrong with owning guns, abusing the right is the problem.
I think what can help is first finding out if the person purchasing a gun is in his or her right mental state. So many people are depressed and unhappy. Selling guns to such people could make them hurt the society, and that's the abuse of the gun laws I mentioned earlier.

Scholes007:
Nicely said. So it not out of place to use military might to cleanup the streets then allow the local law enforcement to continue from there. Besides I don't think it's about left or right but logic.

MemoriesAndMe:
Military might may solve nothing. Military is meant for wars etc, not the society.Even police can't handle certain situations like gun ownership that's enshrined in the constitution.

LordReed:
Then why is he not using crime statistics to target cities? Why is he going after cities run by Democrats? Because it is clear that this is the beginning of a fascisitic enterprise. I will not be surprised if during the elections they just position military units close to ballot boxes to arrest the undesirables aka Democrat leaning voters.

Scholes007:
I don't see it that way, I think he is targeting cities of more importance. Handling Chicago will be a very clear signal to criminals elsewhere that it's no more business as usual. Besides most major cities are been controlled by democrats mayor.

LordReed:
Dude don't even go there. How he is handling the government shutdown has made it clear even if you say it wasn't clear before. Using government websites to blame the Dems against the Hatch Act, withholding money for climate change programs from Dem controlled states alone, halting funding of a Mass Transit project in New York. Please you cannot continue turning a blind eye to what is very obvious.

Scholes007:
There are too many bias within US politics now. I think if we can theoretically keep a blind eye about left and right politics, we will have a conclusion were both the president/ GOP and Democrat are targeting the midterm.

DeepSight:
There is no reason on God's good Earth to deploy the US Military to American cities except the childish ego and childish desire of Trump to become a dictator figure.

Scholes007:
There are so many reasons to why the military can help the local law enforcement to fight violence. You can see how effective they are at the border. Politics aside, I think it's very important the US military tackles this before facing the gangs out her shores.

DeepSight:
There is a reason you have police, national guard, etc. The military is not for normal domestic crime. You only call them up for extreme and highly abnormal situations beyond the capacity of the police and other law enforcement. There is no such extreme scenario going on. The only reason is the desire of a child-man to play dictator.

LordReed:
Tell me what the Democrats have done that you think is for the midterms.

Scholes007:
Yes democrats have shown truly that it's political. Look at senator Chuck Schemer stands on government shutdown during Obama presidency and now.
