My gut reaction was, ‘No .... our sons and daughters will not fire on us’. But .... then I remembered Kent State.

The Guardsmen who fired at Kent State should have been court martialled then drawn and quartered.... for incompetence.

They fired and killed innocent bystanders over 400 meters from the action. IF you're going to shoot, you'd better have a dead body for every round fired and it better be in the target group! 12 shots, means 12 dead bodies at the point of conflict. That way, even if it was shown that the order to fire was wrong, at least it would have shown they knew what they were doing and the dead were associated with the direct event. Not just going to class a quarter of a mile distant and uninvolved....
