(FYI I've only read the first page)
All outposts, towns and cities are brimmed with guards, guards I might add that can often one shot kill mobs, (almost making you wonder why they aren't the ones being hired to save the world and why the heck are they just guards... but I digress).
This leaves 2 options in my mind as to what can be done. First is leave this as is, outlaws cant really do much freely with a guard presence like this around anyway. The second would be to open up the safe zones but make outlaws a target of the guards the moment they act up in these areas, or as targets in general... and targets of anyone committing an attack while fighting within a guild vs guild battle, whom enter these zones but still continue to fight.
...starts becoming more EvE like, but it's an answer.

Would the guards be a target as well? I know in PWI people made it into an event to kill the guards of the main city. But just having the guard sit there taking out people during GvG or assist killing people during GvG without taking damage themselves is a bit... smeh.. I'd like the ability to fight against them since they have the newfound ability to fight me.

I think that would be awesome. But there needs to be some effect to killing guards...like you become flagged as red to all guards in all cities/towns for xx minutes or something.
TBH I don't get the idea that Outlaws can freely wander into towns. The only thing I can think of is the devs don't want Outlaws wiping out quest hubs and towns for fun....which is exactly what would happen if guards were attackable.

I don't see why not, the guards though would need to be at least lv60, and respawn within a minute on chance of death. Also would have to open up automatic aggro of all guards at the encampment or town or city, for a certain period of time.

Yeah that'd be an issue, but it's take a large amount of time and man power to take down a guard since they can 1-shot a mob your own level. People with a fine set of armor and levels to back them up would still have issues handling a guard and would need all the help they can get.
Also to touch points with the effects given on a guard kill - bounty - why not add a bounty on their head in that area as well as major cities/towns? If you kill so and so you gain the reward for the bounty. The reward would increase as they continue to kill other players especially those levels below them.

A minute seems too soon, there should be somewhat of a grace period between his death to spread awareness across the world (maybe a pop up that Guard "X" from "Y" has fallen, all troops to "Y"!!!).
