The battle of Blair mountain was an uprising of 10k+ coal miners for better working conditions in 1921. The result was the national guard coming in to kill a bunch of Americans.
(Side note: they wore red bandanas around their neck. Although the term redneck was used prior to this battle, some claim the red bandana as an alternate history for the word. redneck origin/definition )
Tragic how Americans forgot all about it in a couple of decades. Those people fought for their rights and they sent the army to rein them in.
Now the army is too busy so they send in the violent goobers.
They sent violent goobers too, the Pinkerton’s have a long history of strike breaking
