Agreed the rampant drug use and homelessness on display in MacArthur Park is very troubling
Common Ground 
i thought they were there to round up dangerous violent illegal immigrants?
City leaders and community groups have long tried to address homelessness and drug use in the park about 10 blocks west of downtown Los Angeles. Workers with a St. John’s Community Health street medicine clinic that was serving homeless people at the park said that agents had pointed guns at them and instructed them to stop their work and leave on Monday.
Gregory Bovino, a Customs and Border Protection chief in Southern California, indicated Monday that the Trump administration intended to make itself seen across the city. “Better get used to us now, cause this is going to be normal very soon,” Mr. Bovino told a Fox News reporter. “We will go anywhere, anytime we want in Los Angeles.”
this is more troubling to me than homelessness and drug use, but idk.
Nothing to see here. Blood thirsty warpig Dax loves militant tactics used by domestic police forces against law abiding US citizens. BAU.
it's troubling to me that national guard troops are being deployed by the federal executive branch, going against the explicit wishes of the mayor of the city and governor of the state. to my recollection in my lifetime, i have only heard of NG troops being deployed at the
request of a mayor/governor. this feels more like intimidation, and the quotes above confirm it's more about intimidation and show of force than anything at all to do with illegal immigrants. even the boot lickers in this thread can't decide if the operation was targeting homelessness, fake ID's, drug use, or illegal immigration.
