AZ: Ask for 3000 NG, get 30.

The thing is:

30 guardsmen could do a lot... if they had bullets and a mandate to use them.

3000 guardsmen wouldn't do jack-squat other than frustrate themselves and bloat our court system with those they apprehend.

The number doesn't matter without the will.

Next time ask for 300,000 and you should get 3,000.

If AZ were a government agency asking for $3,000, it would get $3,000,000.

Why doesn't AZ call out it's own NG? I assume you guys have more than 30 of them.  Or are they busy?
