Governor sending Guard Troops to DC [View all]

I notice the headline in the paper this morning.

https://www.newstribune.com/news/missouri/story/2020/jun/04/missouri-national-guard-sending-300-troops-dc/829729/

Quote from the article:
"When you see a Guardsman, please know that we care about you, we care about each other, we care about our collective freedom to demonstrate peacefully, and we care about protecting life and property," he said.

I'd say if they cared they wouldn't send the troops.
