The 48 MUTA periods are over the calendar year. 12 months x 4 MUTA periods per one weekend per month = makes 48 pay days for 24 actual days of service per year. Then 2 weeks of Annual Training.
As far as positioning Guardsmen to fire on civilians, that shit ain't happening. It takes an act of Congress to practically authorize a Commander at a lower level to even allow Guardsmen to bring weapons out into public. So no, the 68W medic that's 19 years old and cleaning rooms in a hospital or cleaning instruments in a surgical unit to help out the short staffed hospital won't be interacting with the general public, much less anti-COVID protesters.

I could absolutely see color-revolution tactics used by DC NGOs (antifa et al). They dress as maga, or antivax crowds, break into a hospital, and bingo, dead/injured soldiers or civilians.
This shit is trivial, but you do seem to know what you're talking about.
Explain to me why you don't see the above scenario as likely or possible. Thats what I want to know.
