Something tells me this is a bit less ominous than some in this thread have wet themselves over. Since the various National Guards are under State (not Presidential) control there may be some gaps in which locations are under whose control.

This unit is definitely not under state control. There are provisions in the 2008 National Defense Act added by the Congress that were intended to limit the amount of power given by earlier acts with regards to suppressing social unrest threatening the constitution, but a White House signing statement was released when Bush singed the bill basically dismissing the limitations.
