Leftist Narrative Crumbles After Key Fact About Armed Men Involved in Standoff Revealed
The Western Journal ^ | July 4, 2021 at 8:22am | C. Douglas Golden

Posted on 07/04/2021 10:01:51 AM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

In Wakefield, Massachusetts, an armed group that apparently believes it is not subject to the laws of the United States engaged in an hours-long standoff with police in the early hours of Saturday morning.

On its Twitter account, The Associated Press reported that nine suspects were taken into custody after the incident, which closed down Interstate 95 — the major north-south artery for the entire East Coast — in both directions on the Fourth of July holiday weekend.

No member of the group — carrying long guns and clad in military fatigues — was wounded in the standoff.

Naturally, too many Twitterers jumped to quick conclusions.

No the NH Staties are not not stupid. My point was more that they would have broken no laws in NH. I find it ironic that in the woke Republic of Massachusetts a car full of seemingly peaceful black gun owners are carted off to jail, whereas in lily white NH or ME they would have been told not to hurt anyone while playing soldier out in the woods.

Sooner or later blacks are going to figure out their oppressors are white liberals. They always have been, and always will be.

I think their “running out of gas” was the Hand of God in action. I love it.

If not for that little motoring oversight, we would have never known about this Moorish Militia team cutting through Massachusetts, heavily armed,
on their way to Maine. On the Fourth of July.

"HOW MUCH OF A MORTAL THREAT ARE A PACK OF SUPREMACIST, BLACK, WHITE, OR INUIT, DUMB ENOUGH TO RUN OUT OF GAS ON THEIR WAY TO THEIR “MILITIA” TRAINING?"

You guys were going to capture the capitol but you what!? "Ran out of gas?"

Ha, Ha, Ha.

What law exactly did they break? Being in public with a gun? A MA state law that apparently negates the second amendment.
