Heavily armed civilians take to the streets of Kenosha to protect locals businesses as city braces for a third night of rioting, arson and looting in wake of cops shooting unarmed black father Jacob Blake in the back

Heavily armed civilians have been filmed protecting businesses in Kenosha after arsonists set buildings alight, torching much of the black business district Monday.

In footage taken by a local reporter, a small group of men can be seen carrying rifles and wearing combat gear as they protect local shops. They deny they are part of a militia.

Two other rioters got shot: they were chasing a guy with a rifle and tried to jump him when he went down.

One of the jumpers went down after staggering a few steps, I don't know what happened to him. The other got a chunk of his bicep vaporized, and you can see the elbow joint & bone in the wound.

Accounts differ as to who the rifle guy was; some are even claiming it was libertarians providing "protection" or "security" to Pantifa.

Way to self-own, guys!

Yep. When lawlessness lasts too long, vigilantes form. That’s exactly what happened after the civil war. S.W.Missouri Christian County and Taney County—they were called the Bald Knobbers.

A deacon in the church was the head of the bald knobbers in Christian County. He got hanged for murder and he wasn’t even at the house when the murder happened-he had just disbanded the group and young uns got into trouble on their way home. They said he was their leader and responsible.

Made the national news, and the press was about as smarmy about it as they are today. Vigilante stuff almost always ends badly.

These Soros DAs are just chomping at the bit to charge some red-blooded American Trump supporters and throw the book at them. Look what that DA did to that couple in St. Louis.

It’s what the Demshivicks want. That’s why they keep rioting and poking the bear.

This is exactly what the Democrats want. Trouble, trouble and more trouble.

May the Lord reward them swiftly for their evil plans.

All of them that are sowing insurrection and rebellion.

It usually takes a carbine to end resistance immediately.

A 12 gauge SHOTGUN at close range ( 15 to 30 feet ) using your basic #00 shot shells is damn effective at discouraging someone.

The advantage of a shotgun for home defense is that you don't have to AIM... just point it in the general direction and blast away.

I accidentally tuned into fox news today, and it was all about poor old victims shot by police. Gag a Maggot.

Switched channels real quick. First thing I thought was well I guess they were desperate to change the narrative from the successful RNC convention.

What about the guy shot in Arizona by a cop with an AR-15?

Oh yeah, he was white. Burn, Loot, Murder didn’t care about that one.

These are nothing but shock troops for the Democrats used as useful idiots to try and throw the election. A continuation of the Democrat Coup Attempt. /Captain Obvious

I agree with your shotgun statements but with an increase in distance. I was recently at the range and doing patterns with various buckshot loads at 25 yards and 50 yards (150 feet). #1 buckshot would print an average of three 30 cal hits out of 16 pellets on the vitals of a silhouette at 50 yards via an 18-inch cylinder bore 12 guage. 30 feet is just beginning to get to a good spread.

All shotguns are devastating weapons. The .410 3-inch loads of five 000 buckshot pellets (36 caliber) — pure T awesome.

Donald Trump should promise an AR15 for every non-felonious household in America that wants one in his second home.

The Houston Consulate was shut for fomenting BLM and Antifa riots.
