Thread: How come the WAR ON TERROR does not include targeting domestic gangs?

Because if we started killing American citizens(even if they are useless scum) everyone would be up in arms about it.

The federal Department of Defense has no jurisdiction inside the US until we're attacked by an invading force.

We have police forces at local and state levels, and we have the national guard at the state level.

two completely different issues, but I understand what you're saying and agree.

We should be using our National Guard and FBI to more stringently police these gangs. The main issue is what is the difference between a political group/community group and a gang? Its a fine line that is often blurred...

Agreed. And good question. They are definitely the most immediate threat in my area right now. A 14 year old kid from down the street (NOT involved in gangs) was just stabbed in the chest about 3 months ago. He was lucky he lived. Wonder how much it has to do with the illegal thing that no politician seems to want to touch? Also... our jails are filled to the brim with really hardened criminals like pot smokers. So there is no room for the little creeps.

I agree. I am tired of Bloods, Cryps, Wanna bes - kill 'em all.
