You know the last time a bunch of poorly trained idiots were handed guns and told to stand around while students protest, they ended up shooting the students.

  Actually the military and National Guard completely reformed the way they handle protests because of Kent State. It’s the police who are the problem in protests now. Even to the point of dressing as close to the national guard as they can so people blame the wrong organization.

    Kent State and several other similar incidents. But yeah, that’s kind of my point

This is Texas. They are afraid of 20 year olds.
