This,

none

 Insurrection is a crime they apparently believe only conservatives can

 Over Governor Newsom's objections, Trump federalized and deployed the
 California national guard. Newsom said army troops were unnecessary but
 police have been using anti-riot tactics, so what's the difference. The
 violent protests have continued for three days. News reports say that
 national guard troops have been deployed to protect federal property. If
 that's all they are being used for, I don't see how that usurps
 federalism. Newsom is going to court this morning anyway.
 
 Police declared all of downtown Los Angeles "an unlawful assembly area".
 Why didn't they just declare a straight-forward curfew? What does that
 mean for a building owner trying to get security guards deployed?

Reports I had read indicated there were all of 100 protesters.

Were these the same 'reports' that told you everything was 'mostly peaceful',
Dimensional? The crowd sizes were a helluva lot further north than 100.
