In context, many had, and continue to, misconstrue protests as riots. As such, a call to send in the military against rioters cannot be differentiated from a call to send in the military against protestors, unless you can get cotton and the protestors to agree on what the differences between protest and riot are.

Yes, it was a calculated move to try to paint ALL the protests as riots and justify potentially deadly use of force.
