Hartford, CT, Democrat Mayor Denounces Residents Who Are Arming Themselves to Fight Violent Crime
Breitbart ^ | 06/08/2024 | Awr Hawkins

Hartford, Connecticut’s, Mayor Arunan Arulampalam (D) is denouncing residents of a predominately black community for arming themselves to fight violent crime.

The New York Post reported the residents, approximately 40 in all, are calling themselves the “Self-Defense Brigade.” The armed residents patrol the streets of their neighborhood at night and keep an eye on homes and businesses via drones.

The brigade was founded by Cornell Lewis, who told FOX News, “The Democrat machine in Hartford is either unwilling or unable, incapable, of doing it, and people are paying their tax dollars, and they’re not really getting any kind of service. So we want the people to understand, number one, self-defense is not a dirty word.”

(Why do all these foreigners want to be in our politics?)

Here to take down the USA?

Here to sow chaos in the USA?

How many more times do they have to show that they’re about destroying traditional Americans and America?

Just like Manchurian Candidate.....

We have a bunch of idiots voting them in.

Here you go:

His parents fled Sri Lanka in July 1983, at the start of the Sri Lankan Civil War.[1][2] They moved to England, where they married, and settled in Zimbabwe. Arunan was born in Bulawayo in 1985.

Other reports say he was born in America.

“why do all these foreigners want to be in our politics? ”

To make the USA as “wonderful” as the countries they ran away from.

Looks like another African American Affirmative Action pick.

Parents were from Sri Lanka - not African. He's likely a Hindu or Muslim.

Mayor:
As I said to my armed driver as I was getting out of the bullet proof glass limo as we got through the gate past the guard booth and nodded to the guy, my two mansion bodyguards give me a feeling of safety in these uncertain times.

They have it easy compared to their heavyweight boxing days. Mostly just standing around and watching.

I told them I’m going to be up late working on my speech against vigilantes.

What next? A right to bear arms for American citizens guaranteed under the US Constitution? Sounds like science fiction.📑

Until the 1960s, communist scum like him would have been tarred & feathered by the fed-up towns people...

I was wondering, that confirms my suspicions. He’s probably part of the problem.
