Well… It’s not the first time the National Guard gunned down protesters. No one was ever held responsible for Kent State murders, and Kent State was not the only college that saw National Guard violence. 60 years ago, and in that time, no laws were changed to prevent it from happening again.

The national guard of the 1600s was organized around fighting american indians to assist with the colonization of North America.
The modern national guard wasn’t formed until the Dick Act of 1903, after which they were almost immediately used to suppress labor strikes. You can look into the Colorado Labor Wars or the Ludlow Massacre for some contemporary examples.
