You are in denial about what the presence of National Guard actually means. NG, police, military, etc all exist to protect capital, property, and the assets/interests of the ruling class. Do not think for one single fucking moment that the national guard is here to protect people protesting in the streets. It has never happened ever in history. Quite the opposite. You can think “sHiFtInG gOaL pOsTs” all you want, but you are delusional. This will only end badly.
Police and State Police here in Chicago were sent to Broadview to “protect protestors”. Know what happened? Just guess. They arrested protestors and assisted ICE operations. They faced and formed a wall against protestors, not ICE. If you think the NG is going to be arresting ICE you are out of your goddamned fucking mind and need to read a history book.
Oh, so they’re going to be wearing this while “protecting people” from ICE? How has that played out in history? There’s a few songs about it…

Blocked.
Oh no, you’re saying I won’t have to interact with you any more? How will I survive.
Just for anyone who hasn’t yet randomly insulted and then blocked me:
Nowhere did I say that I expected them to be doing that. Dude just worked themselves into a froth over absolutely nothing.
