#1 Underlying problem is that as a poor state, it ends up training officer who move on to better pay in AZ or CO.
It's compounded by being a Karenstan where no one wants to hold the vile utes accountable for the crime and violence they commit. Far more concern for 'reform' of the miscreants than justice for the victims. Add in that the DA plea bargains clear 1st Degree murder down to 2nd Degree from the start. Life is cheap. Welcome to the Wild West circa 2025.

#3 "...However, they will not be armed or in uniform, reported the Albuquerque Journal. Instead, the troops will be in polo shirts."

Classic dem idiocy...

#5 It may, possibly not be as stupid as it sounds -- though I think the policy of using NG troops when you could deputize volunteers is questionable.

Anyway, the New Mexico Army National Guard has the 226th Military Police Battalion with the 126th and 919th MP companies. So it is not as silly as tasking a military bridging detachment to do police patrols.

#6 When I was a kid, Boston used to have an area called the Combat Zone. Haven’t been back East in many years.
