I just saw a story about the way Albuquerque is employing the National Guard to help in their crime problems. The guard made up of local people, does not wear fatigues or carry weapons, and makes no arrests, but are there to assist the police and respond to calls in order to free the police to do the most serious work. They are helping with problems like homeless, drug addiction, mental health issues, petty crimes, etc. Very thoughtful and effective use of this resource.
