Armed Anarchy on the Streets of Memphis - Moonbattery

moonbattery.com

We’ve seen what the collapse of the United States into anarchy looks like in Newark. The Auto Wire shows us how it looks in Memphis:

A street takeover in Memphis involving two Dodge Chargers blocking a section of road escalated beyond the typical reckless driving scenario when participants were filmed hanging out of vehicle windows brandishing firearms. …

Memphis has been dealing with elevated levels of violent crime more broadly, and the street takeover incidents are occurring in that context. …

The escalation of street takeovers from dangerous to armed and dangerous should motivate cities that have been treating this as a low-priority nuisance issue to revisit that assessment. The Memphis incident won’t be the last one that involves weapons, and waiting for a shooting before implementing more serious enforcement responses is a predictably bad strategy.

Let me guess the liberal solution: confiscate firearms from law-abiding citizens while leaving criminals armed to the teeth, then defund the police.
