NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WSMV) - Rep. Andy Ogles is not only calling for the National Guard to be sent to Memphis, but is now pushing for them to be sent to Nashville as well.

Ogles, who’s been outspoken against Nashville Mayor Freddie O’Connell in recent months, says Music City is becoming a hotbed for gang activity and the mayor is to blame.

“Comrade O’Connell is using the city as an outpost for international gangs to set up shop in our neighborhoods,” Ogles said on social media. “Punish criminals and the Mayors who work for them.”
