Rod, when you bring CNN into the equation, you may as well quote The Onion or Babylon Bee. You and a few others are the only ones that take CNN seriously. Based on their pathetic ratings, most people realize what a joke they are.

Perhaps another way of looking at the matter is that the "navy veteran"/BLM supporter choose to put himself in a war zone and was a victim of collateral damage.

Here is another less often quote from Tom Ride, former Republican Governor of PA and the first head of the DHS had to say about Trump's plans:

Republican Tom Ridge, formerly the governor of Pennsylvania, and the first secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, continues to criticize the Trump administration’s planned deployment of federal agents in cities.

On CNN Wednesday night, Ridge said the unilateral approach of sending agents to cities such as Chicago, to fight violent crime, would not be effective in the long run.

“I’m disappointed in my president, because it seems like it’s a reality TV approach toward dealing with a very, very serious problem,” Ridge said. “(The agents) will leave in a couple of weeks, and the lawlessness will re-emerge, and they still haven’t dealt with the social and economic conditions that underpin the lawlessness.”

James, your TDS must be flaring up today; you're starting to hallucinate.👹

Actually, my response was specifically pertaining to the part I put in bold.
