Who makes up the National Guard?
The Guard’s racial make-up is close to that of the United States, as a whole. According to Census QuickFacts, 77.7 percent of the U.S. population identify as white, 13.2 percent as black or African American, 1.2 percent as American Indian or Alaska Native, 5.3 percent as Asian.

If the purpose of the National Guard is to guard the Nation, then Obama should be very, very worried - - - .

My understanding is these people are the State Guard when called out by a governor and they become the National Guard when called by the President. I believe that each governor has to give his permission before the President can call them out.

So then, by admission of their own guilt, the TWO “activists”, and their own bias, ARE performing TREASONOUS ACTS AND HIGH CRIMES.
