The Marines Corps has launched an investigation after the California Highway Patrol said shrapnel from an artillery shell, fired during a live-fire demonstration touted by the White House, struck a law enforcement vehicle.
No injuries were reported when an artillery round “detonated overhead prematurely” during Saturday’s 250th anniversary celebration for the Marines Corps at Camp Pendleton, the highway patrol said.
But at least one of its patrol vehicles, on hand to help stop and divert traffic on Interstate 5 through the base during the demonstration, was damaged, the highway patrol said in a statement Sunday.
How exactly would you suggest he had stopped them?
You’re probably wondering why people are downvoting you, but this is really no different than asking an abused spouse why they didn’t stop their partner from beating them.
If the Governor of California wanted to stop the president from shooting live munitions over an open highway, they can dispatch the police, eor even the National Guard…
I’m not wondering why people down voted me.
Oligarchs are spending a shit ton of money to make neoliberals like Newsome and Pritzker sound like the next best presidential candidate.
And unfortunately it’s not just Republican voters that fall for propaganda.
But I assure you, 10 or even 100 random social media accounts down voting me isn’t something I’m concerned about.
Edit:
Newsom isn’t being abused, the citizens of America are.
In your analogy, Newsom is the mom that watches her drunk husband beat her kids, but refuses to leave, call the cops, or even just stand between the victims and abuser.
But this isn’t a family.
Newsom is a politician who won’t protect his constituents. If he resigns that’s an opening for someone willing to fight.
Everyday Newsom is in office, helps trump.
So you expect Newsom to dispatch the California highway patrol to take over an active US Marine base staffed with Marines who have tanks? How do you think that’s going to end? How would you even get enough CHP there to do anything?
