Senator Tom Cotton, suggesting the use of 101st Airborne Division for looters & riots.
The 101st Airborne Division is a specialized modular light infantry division of the United States Army trained for air assault operations.
Anarchy, rioting, and looting needs to end tonight.
If local law enforcement is overwhelmed and needs backup, let's see how tough these Antifa terrorists are when they're facing off with the 101st Airborne Division.
We need to have zero tolerance for this destruction.
