This article covers upcoming deployment.

I haven't come across overall Indiana sentiment on this yet

There are many things I'm unhappy about in this matter:

  • Deployment of Indiana guard for something the federal government should be doing.
  • Putting Indiana citizen soldiers in a very difficult position: having to deal with immigration policies in actual practice, political shenanigans, dealing with humanitarian issues when the primary mission isn't saving lives. We are good at war and helping save lives, anything else is asking for trouble.
  • Combining immigration policy with border protection. I don't like that they aren't separate. I feel like it's all political games, but someone convince me that we can't control borders without barring all immigration.
  • Crazy talk about federalizing a state's national guard.
  • Crazy talk about States and federal government clashing to the point of escalation. I don't think cool heads and reason win the day anymore. I feel like the populous seems willing to support more extreme measures these days
  • Separation of service members from their families

On one positive side, this will give 50 service members and their families a first hand view of a major topic instead of hearing it from the news.

LOL, Well, I'm sorry about your dad, but your attitude is still shit, though you're today's entertainment for me 😆.

You can talk so much shit about everything and everyone (America/society/business/government) because of all our freedoms, or maybe in your terms fReEdOms? Some, including your dad put work in. I guess your whole family did in a sense with their whole generation not getting any post war care.

I sympathize with you though. Maybe if you stop imaging you have everyone figured out on the other end of a keyboard? You don't have people figured out bro, far from it. So what do you think Pvt, did I suss it out?
