Election year stunt, perhaps? Seems like rather poor timing to me (Daniel Penny case looming, recent migrant murder in GA), but maybe they're anticipating a very exciting spring and summer.
Of course it's a stunt. The National Guard doesn't do shit. They actually just stand around obvious static areas where the cops aren't needed, so the police can actually go to places where crime is actually bad.
This means that the police are probably just going to harass normal people rather than criminals and illegals in order to make normies feel like something serious is happening, while not doing anything to touch these politicians favorite criminals.
The national guard being posted up is just a scare tactic, they really have no authority to do anything. A friend of mines husband was NG and basically anytime they did stuff like this (airports, subways, sports stadiums) they were told to call the cops if something happened. They weren't even allowed to keep their guns loaded.
Also it is doubly stupid to think checking bags is going to stop criminals. Criminals don't carry weapons in bags, they're in their pockets or wristbands.

So what you're saying is National Guardsmen are loot drops for dindus?
Yeah, it's not going to do anything, the police have to do the heavy lifting.
