Afaik people were very cowed during the national guard occupation. At that point everyone was waiting to see if Chauvin would walk. Walz sent in the military pre-emptively and people were scared enough by all the soldiers to mostly stay home. And then Chauvin was convicted so we didn’t get massive street actions.
But I think you’re conflating two different time periods
My memory of about three years around 2020 is totally fucked by trauma. I had thought there was a massive national guard deployment when the Chauvin verdict was to be read. Did that happen?
