So a Liberal Socialist Democrat Governor finally will use the National Guard to protect it citizens from Rioters? What has changed????

Oh that's right... Trump is not in office... and Harris, Nancy and Chucky are running the Coup now.

A lot of citizen (both sides) sure could have used the NG's a lot in 2019-2020 in all those Liberal Socialist Democrat States where the Destructive RIOTERS. LOOTERS and ARSONISTS were allowed 170+ days for do as they wish to help the Coup proceed.

But I guess POLITICS to them takes precedent over everything else.

#4 National Guard no. Call forth the Militia with the warning - these guys are not trained. Don't screw with them otherwise they'll shoot your ass in a heart beat.

#5 If only they were being activated to prevent riots instead of protecting rioters.

#6 The only thing that MIGHT prevent riots is if Officer Chauvin is publicly and painfully executed immediately after the trial - no matter what the verdict.
Maybe.

#7 I'm not a resident of the cities that antifa and BLM are active. I don't know how the violence affects local lives other than what the MSM tells me. So I don't feel sorry for the residents of Minneapolis, Portland, Seattle, LA. They get what they vote for. I am almost pleased it hurts the voters of those localities. As for the NG, get a job making solar panels. Not sarc.

#8 Axiom: You can never satisfy the mob.

So no matter what the verdict the mob will riot and burn. Even if they led the officer directly to a gallows and hung him the mob would only demand more.

#10 The only thing that MIGHT prevent riots is if Officer Chauvin is publicly and painfully executed immediately after the trial - no matter what the verdict.
Maybe.

Like CrazFool said, then it would be a victory riot.

Which, I guess, for all intents, this will be whatever the verdict may be.

I maintain my prediction about Easter time.
