    After several days of protests that quickly developed into riots, the National Guard was called in to assist the police and FBI. A few platoons of them are currently stationed at the City Center of LA.

    Sergeant Mitchells: He sighs while standing there with the others in his platoon, holding a riot shield to block all the rocks and other things thrown at them. These rioters are something else.

    Private Dawnson: You tell me, sir, wild folks these days, I guess.

    The others in the National Guard platoon continued to just remain in formation, sometimes firing some tear gas or rubber bullets to pelt the rioters back. They're backed up by Riot Police and Federal Agents as well.
