While you're obsessing about murder rate vs the actual numbers, 8 more people in the Chicago area are being buried and their families, friends, co-workers & acquaintances have lost someone and 58 others now need to deal with the consequences of their gunshot wounds.
Why don't you go to Chicago and ask the survivors and the families of the dead if they give a rat's ass about your distinction and opinions.
Safety shoudn't be a political football, but it is. Trump isn't the one who should be making the decision, but he isn't being stopped.
OTOH, look for video interviews with people in various cities and find out if they want the NG or really, SOMEONE, to go to their cities, to make them safer. They're available and I'm not referring to FOX videos.
