Heavily-armed members of a controversial patriot group added an extra dose of unease to protests in Ferguson, Missouri, early Tuesday.

The Oath Keepers organization says its members — all former military, police and first responders — pledge to “defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic.”

We got more... Just takes a bit more kurfluffle to make it worth the time.

One riot, one fireteam.

“OMG, they were ‘heavily-armed”......with “Assault Rifles’.”

I’m not sure, but I don’t recall the last time MSNBC called the New Black Panthers “controversial”, “unnecessary and inflammatory”, or that they added an extra dose of unease.

Anyone with a goofy name like King Samir Sh***azz would make me uneasy.

The Oathkeepers will be labeled a white supremacist militia and anti-government terrorist organization before this is done, no matter how positive an affect their presence makes.

Propaganda release in 3, 2, 1....

They’ve already tried that. Considering there are plenty of “Minorities” in Oathkeepers, the charge is exceedingly hollow.

As for anti-government... These days, anyone who has read and agrees with the Constitution doesn’t much care for our current state of affairs.

I'm certain the Oath Keepers are a calming effect.

Wherever they are, folks tread lightly.

THey aren't interested in reality, only perception. That perception is what they want the low-information voter to be fed.

God bless all who love freedom and are willing to stand up for it...!

I’d like to include this in my upcoming anthology of urban poetry. It’s titled “Horton Hears a ‘Ho”...

I thought that was 'Horton HIRES a ho'!...it comes right after 'Oh the Things You'll Scratch and Sniff' in the Dr. Seuss book of adult nursery rhymes.
