For Our State's Right's, Small Gvt People

I don't like the idea of sending in Feds from a Libertarian standpoint but this does seem like he wasn't just paying lip service when railing against the Chicago violence. Something must be done -- and Emmanuel is not doing it -- but not sure Feds are that something.

I might rather see a list of Federal demands attached to money that is already being sent to the city. I'm a believer in the power of the purse.

This attention -- and action if taken -- would be huge benefit to the law abiding in the Chicago inner city. However, I suspect this won't be viewed as something he is doing for poor, minority, and embattled communities but more because he wants to flex some dictatorial muscle...and that is a shame.
