It’s simultaneously both crime-free and a lawless wasteland, whichever is most useful on a given day.
To the fascist dictator, the enemy is both weak and strong.
Yea, it's supposed to be crime free now.
Inb4 Republican shooter
Oh come on... When has that every happened? Except for those few hundred times.
No real details in the article, if you were looking for more info.
I'm guessing they don't mean they were shot after being taken into custody, but that's how it reads.
With these clowns it could go either way.
Hopefully no innocent people have been harmed.
Also, if this is anything like the rest of 2025? We are all going to be having panic attacks over this being the moment that is used to justify nation wide martial law (not that they need justification...). But instead it is going to be some gomer with a sig shooting off their foot and then national guard managed to shoot each other while returning fire.
They risk their life for your freedom ...to be shoved down your throat against all of your own will, until you choke on nationalistic pride of ignorance, arrogance, and extreme narrow ideology of what life and existence is.
...now thank them and give them money.
Jk... They were manipulated and used since birth just like the rest of us tbh.
Innocents did harmed national guard are one of the few useful members of the military
They are jackboot thugs enforcing the will of the rapist in chief and are actively occupying a city for no reason other than the ego of said rapist.
They are far from innocent
there is no such thing as a useful military. try again.
I am from a fishing village in Alaska. It's the coast guard that saves people from sinking ships. Pretty fucking useful. Plus the national guard does a lot of disaster relief.
neat. can be done with firefighter apparatus and focus too. not needed to be done with a military.
Yeah well... it's not.
Also, you seem to forget fire fighters assist in 'riot' control
actual firefighter here. no we do not assist in riot control. ive not seen it in any recent memory in my 20 years in. anecdotal though this evidence is.
point being; a few good cohorts doing life safety will happen regardless of military existence. let’s support life saving.
I agree for the most part. But the fact is fire hoses being used on civil rights protesters is almost an iconic image
Hell of a recovery.

Having no context, I feel bad for those shot.
But, frankly, these sorts of events are going to increase and I 100% believe they should. Those in power need to fear for their lives and those trying to militarily support them need to question their allegiance.
Cry me a river
Their condition is shot
Thank you, most helpful
They died yes
When was that confirmed? Another article said the WV governor had initially made that claim but walked it back after being told they were in critical condition.
