    Makes senses: the California National Guard are now grizzled, battle-hardened warriors after bravely fighting in the trenches of the Great Los Angeles Insurrection, and therefore best suited to tackle the horrors of the Portland warzone.

    They might even be asked to patrol farmers’ markets, where dangerous hippies might throw chia seeds at them! Oh the humanity!

      according to the SPLC, California has more white supremacist groups than any other state….
      i’d guess that the past couple of months have weeded out the ones opposed to treason…
      that’s why the have to slowly roll out fascism…

        It has more everything than any other state. It’s a big state.

        We are the most populous state by a solid chunk so I’d kinda expect that. Also NorCal and the Hi-desert have a lot of backwoods militia types, also we have a lot of cults what I wouldn’t do to purge all those fuckwads cultist up in the San Bernardino mountains. Cults sully the precise murderous madness of San Bernardino with their love bombing dishonest bullshit, if you are gonna stab a man do it to their face.

      It’s a foolish strategy, as we know the great baristas of Portland are a far greater threat than any baristas ever encountered in Los Angeles. Their oat milk lattes oatier, their half caf flat whites flattier… the California National Guard may be no match.
