Governor to send Guard to assist Albuquerque police with crime amid 'state of emergency'

Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham is sending dozens of National Guard troops to aid the Albuquerque Police Department, a move intended to free up officers to focus more on fighting crime

The progressive approach to crime just doesn't work. In the progressive city where I grew up, which has a light rail system deemed the most dangerous in the nation, they openly let homeless and drug users camp out at a major intersection and light rail stop. I know the area, it is just blocks away from where I lived. The all-woman City Council can have all of the "Crime Prevention Coordinators" and new safety groups they want yet they won't clear that area out.

Do you actually read the stuff you post? Based on your other threads it doesn't seem like it. You always just seem to find some reporting about some incident and then try and make it partisan when it's just really not. What about this initiative is "conservative" assuming you think it was "progressive" before? I can only assume that because of your personal anecdote. And if that's the case it seems the "progressive" policing they were doing before this initiative was working:
They want to continue the trend by having unarmed guardsmen take over some of the administrative(? not sure that's the right word) functions that occupy an officers time that doesn't directly involve policing.

I'll also note that a Republican doesn't like the plan:


So... IS IT conservative vs progressive? Or is it just you not reading and\or understanding what you're posting with the seemingly express purpose of further riling up the left\right division?

So, what are you trying to say with this post? What point are you trying to make?
