A group of residents including children held rifles and other weapons as they blocked their road to 'guard it from looters'. Footage of the group, who were standing next to their cars to block the street, was posted on website LiveLeak and appears to have been filmed in Belleview, Florida. The residents were allegedly guarding their street to stop looters after stores in many parts of the country were raided during nationwide unrest caused by the death of black man George Floyd.

It was a group of community organizers guarding their neighborhood. They organized based on the words of Barack Obama, “If they bring a knife, you bring a gun.” Just following what the Insurrectionist-in-Chief said.
Protecting your property is not being a vigilante.
“Vigilante?” The Guardian is worm food. What an editorialized title.
Well said, very well said.
Thanks for the clarification; I thought it was happening in my area. I couldn’t find out anything about it.
They are what I call a "spontaneous, self-generated militia".
They are an American tradition. They pop up in every emergency.
There are only a couple of places they do not pop up. Places which have eviscerated the Second Amendment through numerous infringements, such as New York City.
These citizens ound like minutemen.
These citizens sound like minutemen.
These are not vigilantes. This is a citizen’s militia. The law has broken down, so law abiding armed citizens have stepped up to the plate. These people do not want to shoot anyone, and as far as they are concerned, if the thugs see them and decide to not ply their trade there, and the militia does not have to fire a round, good. But if the thugs decide to loot anyway, the thugs have chosen poorly.
You asked for it, now you got it(not Toyota).
They are simple CITIZENS exercising their CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS to protect their family and property.
That’s right, I recognized that corner immediately.

do street view and look west.
It is a block away from Bellevue square mall, and with the prime location you probably don’t get into there for less than $2M I’m guessing.
Vigilante??? So protecting your own property from terrorists makes you a vigilante? Unbelievable.
Arsenols? Only if they come out of a spray can. Otherwise, it’s arsenals.
Concerned citizens protecting their homes and families.
Notice the mocking tone of the female.
Police are under no legal obligation to protect you..
In minutes on the third day.
Same thing happening in Coeur d’Alene and Sandpoint, Idaho right now. The local snowflakes are having a meltdown because armed militia accompanied their lily-white schoolkid “BLM” march to make sure there was no mischief from the two “teachers” who organized the “demonstration” (which included the requisite “F-CK TRUMP” signs). Its a beautiful thing!
nothing wrong at all with people defending themselves from having themselves killed, assaulted, and having their homes broken into, looted, and burned down.
especially with so many big city D-commie mayors encouraging the rioters and/or telling the police to stand down
“In minutes on the third day.”
And then they take cover behind their cars while waiting for backup.
