The fakes were that bad.
It is a form of real vigilantism, not the propaganda version of the term.
Real vigilantism is almost entirely legal, caused when government refuses to protect the public from criminals, or worse, takes the side of the criminals against the public.
The vigilante organization first tries petitioning, which is ignored. Then it tries to vote out the bad government, which is thwarted by corrupt elections. Then it sets up things like unarmed block watches, then armed block watches, which usually gets the attention of the government *against* the vigilante movement.
The government then either directly tells the police to crack down on the vigilantes, or arranges with the criminals to ambush them. About this time, suspected leaders of the vigilantes are harassed and/or arrested and abused.
Even when the vigilantes are backed against the wall do they respond *sort of* violently, but still their emphasis is on driving away the criminals. But only when the criminals attack the vigilantes as a group will they usually only respond with violent force.
At this point, not only the criminals, but also the police and the corrupt government leaders are driven out as well.
By the time the greater government arrives in force, the situation has again returned to peace, and the vigilante movement has already been dissolved. After that it is just an anti-vigilante propaganda effort, depicting them as a bloodthirsty and disorganized lynch mob who attacked innocent people.
Ok, I see what you’re saying. I noticed that he tells people to hit the cash link.
Maybe they should do like Kennesaw GA and make it a law that the head of every household is to own a firearm if legal for them to do so.
Thank’s so much...yes he is a legend
Yep, I recall it now...Buckhead saved the world from a John Kerry presidency.
Did you know that Kerry was in Viet Nam??
I think I read that somewhere.
