2. Was repressed by state militia.

Explanation:

Shay's rebellion occurred in western Massachusetts between 1786 and 1787

It consisted of a group of farmers, led by a former war veteran Daniel Shay, who took up arms against the government as some form of protest against economic hardships.

The rebellion was later crushed by the Massachusetts state militia as the Federal government did not have the financial resources to mobilize troops at that time.
