Residents armed with AR-15s and wearing bullet proof vests are taking matters into their own hands across America, coming out in force to defend businesses and stop widespread vandalism by looters.
Heavily armed vigilantes wielding everything from bats to rifles have started appearing at protests in places including Philadelphia, Idaho, California and Chicago, threatening to take action if things turn violent in the absence of law enforcement.
In Minneapolis, neighborhood watch groups are springing up - in support of protests over George Floyd's death but in defense of businesses and homes being destroyed by looters as night falls.
In many cases, the vigilantes want peace and are focused on protecting local residents and businesses from looters.

Today I’ve been called a racist, ignorant, anti choice bigot. I need to get more ammo.
Today is not the time. AND there is no way to see the criminals, murderers and thugs being lead anywhere toward peace. The democrat mayors and governors and digging their own graves by hobbling the police. Their cities have been destroyed and they will want us taxpayer to bail em out... go fish.

You’re right, of course. It’s just all so depressing to see this going on and the people who are supposed to be maintaining order are more interested in kow-towing to thugs than protecting innocent people and their businesses.
I only disagree about the funding... when the time comes to rebuild, those Republican worms in Congress will give them everything they want and then ask if they want more. They don’t want to be called racists, after all. Then we can all sit back and watch our taxpayer funded “restore America” funds channeled to corrupt Democrats and anarchists who want to further destroy our country.
Bulletproofme.com has excellent products and service at fair prices. It’s where we got ours.

They are NOT vigilantes! They are the militia. Is that what Britain called us in 1775? Vigilantes?
“We” don’t need more leadership. Grow up and put on your big boy pants. That’s all the leadership you need.
It is funny how the Daily Mail thinks that a guy with a .223 caliber AR-15 is “heavily armed”. They do that all of the time. What a bunch of snowflakes.
Watch Mattis come out and demand the military be called out to take out the vigilantes
Those of us in flyover country don’t need leadership. We have and always will handle things on our own. My President needen not worry, we got his back in our territory.
“If you don’t already have a rifle, sidearm, and body armor it’s too late.”
It is not too late. Stores are still open.
“Heavily armed vigilantes wielding everything from bats to rifles”
Heavily armed with....BATS?
“I think a lot of people would prefer an editable Bible, with removable pages and a means to erase or add text to their liking, as often as they like.”
King James had his.
The same fascist scumbag who organized the Antifa rioters that looted and burned La Mesa, CA, sent “protesters” to the more conservative Santee yesterday. They were outnumbered, and in the few scuffles that happened, they were overpowered. They have posted a call to arms for a larger protest tomorrow. Of course, our Sheriff is anti-gun, so we don’t have the freedom to defend our community like those folks pictured above.
Putting an AR rifle in untrained hands right now isn’t exactly wise.

My grandmother had a break-open shotgun and S&W .38.
She was ‘untrained’.
Time to fish them out of the river.
Can someone find out if there’s any “MAYHEM” in Arizona. My buddy says it’s very quiet out there!! There’re ALL packin’!
Guy in the first picture has some great ink! Are they accusing him of being Boogaloo yet? Is that even real or some mumbo-jumbo dreamed up by a Commie journalist who smoked too much weed?
Flyover country hardly has any blacks.
You don’t want to be hit with a bat. Esp. In the head.
It’s never too late.
