As to your bolded point, the numbers say yes, but large numbers don't always equal effective action. 

Sadly, we saw this happen after George Floyd and other black Americans were killed when blm and others took to the streets and literally terrorized people by destroying property, riding through neighborhoods screaming over bullhorns, doxxing people with whom they didn't agree, etc. Forgive me if I'm wrong but And don't tell me that was not domestic terrorism.
 I don't recall one instance of the National Guard being deployed to quell the violence.

The states were activated to protect D.C. in the summer of 2020. There was little violence as a result, so they weren't deployed to quell but likely kept order in the streets. Had they been used other times it's as likely those riots would've been subdued also. Of course then it would've played out like Kent State because #orangemanbad.

Thanks! 2020 was a charlie foxtrot on every level so I don't recall everything that happened. I did think maybe the NG was activated for something but I couldn't remember.
