Days Before National Guardsmen Shot, Dem Senator Said Troops Deployed in Cities May Soon Fire on Civilians
In regards to the shooting of two National Guardsmen in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday, never let it be said that the Democrats didn’t get precisely what they wanted.
Oh, sure — they didn’t call for a shooting in so many words. They just used a few more to dance around the issue — as demonstrated by Michigan Sen. Elissa Slotkin, whose comments this weekend about National Guard deployments to stem crime are now going viral in the wake of the shooting.
As of Wednesday evening, little is known about the eventual fate of the wounded Guardsmen or the alleged shooter. The two troops — who were reportedly gunned down in a “targeted” attack at 17th and High streets NW by a man who yelled “Allahu Akbar” after the attack — remain in critical condition.
