No ones expecting Donald Trumps Thursday rally in Minneapolis to go seamlessly. Some 20,000 mostly out-of-towners will descend on the Target Center. An even larger crowd of locals will be frothing outside. It's a recipe that makes collisions inevitable.
So Republicans will be escorted to and from their cars. That duty will fall to Oath Keepers, a patriot group whose members fancy themselves as guardians of the republic. Or as the Southern Poverty Law Center calls them, one of the largest radical anti-government groups in the U.S. today.
They are not the kind of people you want entering your city. Especially since they tend to be heavily armed.
The group was launched in 2009 afternot coincidentallywe elected a black president. Its beliefs roughly mirrored the conspiracy theories of the day: that the black guy was preparing to invoke martial law. That he would take away your guns. That he would relegate patriots to detention camps.
A decade later, it appears Obama forgot to execute his plot, likely because he never entertained it in the first place. Yet the Oath Keepers carry on, raising Citizen Preservation militias to defend against global elitists and fight the imaginary forces arrayed against them.
Though a rainbow of people will be protestingeveryone from Veterans for Peace to Muslim civil rights groups to people organizing a knitting sit-inthe Oath Keepers have a new enemy: Antifa. Also known as violent communists and America-hating leftists.

First off, it's going to be cold and rainy.. Who really believes that the "protestors" are going to outnumber the "Mostly from out-of-towners"??
Conspiracy group?! What is that supposed to mean? What the heck is antifa, Boy Scouts lite?
Lots of leftist hate starting to bubble to the surface. They are capable of anything, including staging an incident.
“it appears Obama forgot to execute his plot”
Actually, he started it: the program name was “Fast and Furious”
But he and Holder got caught doing it, and had to abandon the gig.
Oath keepers vow to defend the Constitution against criminals who swear to destroy it, like the modern democRAT party. Its not a conspiracy if its really happening morons.
Newsweek Title for the same story:
ONE OF THE ‘LARGEST RADICAL ANTI-GOVERNMENT GROUPS’ IN U.S. WILL ESCORT REPUBLICANS AT TRUMP MINNEAPOLIS RALLY

So you know they are good guys.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A left wing propaganda outlet funded by enemies of America.
I do like their taste in enemies...
we elected a black president.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If only we had......
What we got was a Marxist muslim ineligible usurper who set about to turn our entire government against the citizens.
Any blame for violence that occurs must be placed in the hands of the enemedia and the democrats.
“Oath Keepers... are not the kind of people you want entering your city.”
Words fail.
Um, they are EXACTLY the "kind of people" you want entering your city. They are law abiding, honest, and employed. They will bring money and patronize your businesses. If you are assaulted, they will likely have your back. So, they might be armed? So what? They are not there to cause problems, unlike the riffraff they will be protecting people from.
“Some 20,000 mostly out-of-towners will descend on the Target Center.”
20,000? I think 75,000 tickets have been requested.
I love the bad weather forecast
that makes the snowflakes really not very excited
Veterans for Peace to Muslim civil rights groups to people organizing a knitting sit-in...all sound like America-hating leftists to me.
Hey Kotz! The Southern Poverty Law Center is a left wing hate organization that is funded by people who hate America.
Go and reproduce asexually, asshole.

Look at Wikipedia’s description of them. Makes clear how proggie/leftie Wiki is.
Oath Keepers is a non-partisan association of current and formerly serving military, police, and first responders, who pledge to fulfill the oath all military and police take to defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic. That oath, mandated by Article VI of the Constitution itself, is to the Constitution, not to the politicians, and Oath Keepers declare that they will not obey unconstitutional orders, such as orders to disarm the American people, to conduct warrantless searches, or to detain Americans as enemy combatants in violation of their ancient right to jury trial. See the Oath Keepers Declaration of Orders We Will Not Obey for details.
Oath Keepers reaches out to both current serving and veterans to remind them of their oaths, to teach them more about the Constitution they swore to defend, and to inspire them to defend it. See below for details on how we do that. Oath Keepers also includes a membership program designated as Associate Members, which consists of patriotic citizens who have not served in uniform but who serve now by supporting this mission with their Associate Membership and volunteer activities. Oath Keepers welcomes our Associate Members and appreciates their support of our mission.
Our motto is Not on our watch!
