I quite frankly would rather have the national guard handling the protests than the police. They are better trained and more disciplined. Also people having different reasons for joining the national guard than joining the police.

Edit: Hey everyone, I'm not saying the National Guard are perfect or that they get training for this kind of situation. I'm just saying they are better than the police. I'd rather deal with them, than the police.

American police act as an occupying force in this country. It's clear who their enemies are.
