While the National Guard was called up during some of the Vietnam riots, the Insurrection Act was not invoked. During my lifetime, January 6th, 2021 is the only time I believe the Insurrection Act should have been used.

Schumer: That issue that MAGA Mike keeps talking about—illegal immigrants getting health care. It’s an effing lie. The law says that federal dollars cannot go to illegal immigrants under Medicare, Medicaid, or the ACA.
And I said that to him in the room. I said, You’re lying. He smirked.

How many times that one dude let go of his victim to make sure his mask didn't slip down.
I approve of the fact that we have made him worry more about being identified than he worries about successfully grabbing people.
