Cornell Lewis, a local activist, spearheaded the effort and launched 'Minister Cornell Lewis' Self-Defense Brigade. '

Hartford is a hole
it deteriorated horribly
And it was a hole 30 years ago.
the same applies to Houston but for opposite reasons. It is spread out and parts are really dangerous and parts safe. You have to look by neighborhood.
Connecticut pastor launches militia “to keep the streets clean”
There fixed it
If you are referring to Jacksonville in Florida, that is about 800+ square miles in area, per wikipedia. There are two other “Jacksonvilles” in New England and they are small.
FYI
In the olden days church goers were required to bring their “firelocks” to church and drill after services.
Yes it was.
My remarks are only intended for those who fit the description and not a universal condemnation! I have an Indian gastroenterologist, Indian retina specialist, Egyptian dentist, Japanese ENT, Pakistani primary, Croatian cardiologist, and Croatian pulmonologist. The best..love them all..superb Americans!😀
Defiantly a candidate for the New Black Robe Regiments!
“I have an Indian gastroenterologist, Indian retina specialist, Egyptian dentist....”
I don’t think the armed patrols are for gastroenterologists, dentists, cardiologists, etc who are almost certainly legal aliens or citizens.
The problem (restated) is that there is little to no political distinction made anymore between legal and illegal aliens. Current policies effectively attract and subsidize lawbreakers and interlopers which people must now defend themselves against.
