Hopefully the police forces will nip these riots in the bud before they call in the NG, they’re dealing with rioters now and they’re not peaceful Tea Party protests.
In the 1964 Watts riots the Commanding General of the NG was interviewed on live TV and was asked if automatic weapons had been used by his troops, he said absolutely not. They then showed a filmed clip of a troop firing a 30 cal browning air cooled mounted on a Jeep M38 4X4.
I’m not making a judgement call because in reality the NG ended those riots, too bad the riots weren’t ended sooner.
Hopefully the pastor and his band can keep the crowd calm.
