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.

Can you imagine what it going to be like after the Rapture of the church when the restraining power is taken out of the way?

These shooting are just excuses for wanton destruction and in no way justify the carnage.

There are other ways of dealing with injustice that are at least relevant to the cause.

Looting and arson and widespread destruction have nothing to do with it and will NOT win people over to your cause.

As long as there are occupants the buildings, they should have a right to defend their lives with lethal Force if rioters are attempting to set buildings on fire.

#43. Looking at these satanic symbols and the Democrat Party’s symbol, all I can say is “What the Hell”?

Just remember, there are no co-incidences.

So, it is not the size of the gun but the body armor.

Wilmington insurrection of 1898

Waddell’s speech so inspired the crowd that the Red Shirts left the convention and started terrorizing black citizens and their white allies, in the eastern part of the state, right away. They destroyed property, ambushed citizens with weapon fire, and kidnapped people from their homes and whipped them at night, with the goal of terrorizing them to the point where Republican sympathizers would be too afraid to vote, or even register to do so.[23]

None in Kenosha, apparently.

The city has been burning for two consecutive nights.

Where is the response by the citizenry?

Re your reply that “Just remember, there are no coincidences”.

Yes, so that means that the Devil and the Democrats are working together on purpose. Makes good sense to me.

Pelosi, Hillary, Obama, Schumer, Waters, etc. sound like the “Hounds of Hell” to me. Even look like them. Could have fooled me. NOT!

But did fool a lot of supposedly intelligent Americans who voted for them. Seems that’s the way Hitler rose to power in Germany.

“Just one of those coincidences” you talked about, Disambiguator. Just one of those coincidences, MY ASS!!!!

Just heard on scanner that the city is out of road barricades and now using piles of gravel to block vehicle traffic. Also mention that rioters are gathering at either a police station or some sort of govt building. Here is a link. /url https://m.broadcastify.com/listen/feed/30891/url. Please fix link as I am rusty, thanks.

They can only do what radical leftist, terrorist sympathizer Gov. Evers says they can do - no more.

“Not long until rioters start getting shot.”

And all hell will break loose when it does.
The anarchists don’t care one way or another.

"Black Father"????

How about "Black Criminal"? Talk about bias before the story is even read (which I didn't).

Was he married? Was he living with the mother? Was he supporting his children with legitimate work?

More and more armed civilians are stepping in to stop this crap. Not long until rioters start getting shot.

I am 100% supportive of Statewide civilian militias, and the sooner such militias are organized and locked and loaded the sooner these Marxists criminals will either slither back in their hidey holes or be placed permanently in the dirt.

Not all places are wimpy leftist strongholds run by leftist politician betrayers.

Actually the majority of America will face-down these marxist blackshirts - IF the blackshirts EVER DARE to go to most of America.

His time is short, he knows he’s only got a few years left before he’s tossed into that terrible abyss.

Watching humanity become zombies shows how close we are.
