I had a former colleague called up to Minneapolis during that uprising. That seems to be what their understanding generally was. At one point, they were shot at. Returning fire was very much not on their minds, it was more making sure people were OK (no one was hurt).
Keep order was the idea.
Seemed the person shooting was basically trying to provoke them. It failed.

Shit like this is why we need to stop allowing our cops to feel like they’re soldiers when they have absolute jack shit in the way of training. *
Acorn hits a cops car and he thinks he needs to kill a man. National Guard actually gets shot at and they don’t give a fuck.
The National Guard has discipline. Police have qualified immunity.
