Original Note:
Not a single American was killed by the National Guard during the 2020 BLM Protests as this post implies. All but one citizen killed during the unrest were killed by their fellow citizen, not a government entity. The majority were killed in unrelated crimes near the protest. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/oct/31/americans-killed-protests-political-unrest-acled https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/08/26/almost-none-deaths-linked-recent-protests-are-known-have-been-committed-by-protesters/
