National Guard to Chicago
Advertisements [?]
It has been reported recently that some lawmakers in Chicago have called for the National Guard to be called into Chicago in order to reduce street violence. This seems like an overreaction. I understand that violence has been bad in Chicago, but it seems that calling in the National Guard is over the top. Even if the guard will not be rolling down the street in tanks it seems there must be a better solution to the problem.
