With police forces targeted by rioters and overwhelmed by 911 calls in response to fires and looting, legally armed citizen guards are taking matters into their own hands. Read more about it below!
Armed Citizen Guards Take the Lead
In a true return to our roots, armed militias are forming to protect businesses across America.
Rather than watch their neighborhoods be destroyed, they are arming themselves and strategically protecting their family-owned restaurants, supermarkets, and big-box stores.
In the wake of George Floyd’s May 25 murder while in police custody, which was caught on video, peaceful protests have been organized in hundreds of cities.
Americans of all races have joined together to mourn the loss, seek justice, and enact change.
But as night falls, opportunistic criminals are transforming protests into riots, burning entire streets to the ground and robbing stores of inventory.
Many Americans have had enough, and feel that they have their own solution.
Armed Citizens are Law-Abiding
The armed groups that are forming as security forces are taking every precaution to stay safe and within the law.
In the Powderhorn Park neighborhood in Minneapolis, groups are wearing brightly colored and clearly printed shirts to identify themselves as security.
In Eastern Washington State, the “Defend the Tri” group is in contact with local police; ready and willing to obey any orders sent their way.
All businesses partnering with citizen patrols are requiring that those carrying weapons be licensed to do so.
The groups are organized and orderly; their only mission is to protect their cities.
Destruction Halted in Cities with Citizen Patrols
Cities with organized citizen guards include Minneapolis, St. Paul, Tulsa, Spokane, WA, Coeur d’Alene, ID, and the Tri-Cities area of Washington State.
Since locals took matters into their own hands, they have not seen the destruction of property that they saw prior to their presence.
Many of those in attendance as security are supporters of the protests and their messages, encouraging groups to gather peacefully.
Some of the citizen patrols have pointed out that cops are less likely to tread on the rights of armed Americans in groups.
Armed citizens are protecting both their property and the protesters by being in attendance.
In cities and states with strong gun control laws, the National Guard has been activated in lieu of citizen patrols.
With a rallying cry of “police the police,” activists are in fact drawing more police presence to their regions, accompanied by States of Emergency that limit their Constitutional rights.
2A More Valuable Than Ever
The value of the second amendment has been proven more than ever in the last week.
Armed citizen guards are the ones enacting change in their cities. They are quelling unrest and providing security to peaceful protesters.
There is nothing scrappy or disorganized about these militias. They are acting within their legal rights and have yet to resort to violence.
They are proving that guns in the right hands can stop crimes from being committed, without firing a single shot.
Overrun police departments are grateful for their presence and communities can continue to operate businesses because of them.

This is needed in every community! Large cities, with large police forces and swat teams, led by numb nuts mayors, that negate the effectiveness, of the departments and reserves, are what we see in New York, L.A. Chicago, etc. Dedicated neighbors care and look out for each other.
I knew it was just a matter of time. The left has finally done the inevitable by pushing us to the point that we WILL take our country back by any means necessary. You traitors will suffer and die. True God loving, America loving patriots will see to it. YOU WERE WARNED!
This is why the second amendmentexists. This is why gun control freaks want to take our guns away. Good luck with that.
Absolutely Brother!
Amen!!!
This is courage. Unarmed and outnumbered, armed only with a sign, packin’ only courage. What stops a bad man with a gun? A good woman with character. She is braver than me, and she is braver than you.
I’m leaving in a 16 apts complex and is funny in someway i realize 2 days ago,that everybody own at least a gun or rifle.
DO NOT PUBLISH ANYTHING I SEND YOU.
Please send me more information about AGA.
When law enforcement is paralyzed by rioters and looters then it is up to Law-Abiding Citizens are to protect their homes, neighborhoods, businesses and communities against anarchy and mob rules! This is exactly what the Founding Fathers and Framers put the 2nd Amendment in the Bill of Rights and U.S. Constitution to do. A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
I understand but, what happens the first time you actually shoot and kill someone as a militia?
Probably be considered bad guys and get arrested.
Thank You for this! Let’s all spread this wonderful news and get more on board. I’m tired of
The lowlife looters and nothing be done about it. The governor of California is the worst at letting the marches continue and with that comes the dysfunctional groups.
This is, sadly, bullsht.
These patriots are in an area of trees and apparently rural.
The rioting is in the cities where the arseholes are.
THAT is where we need to be, locked and loaded and ready to unload.
Leftist, criminal-loving mayors and governors are pushing decent, law-abiding people to take matters in to our own hands. Police and law enforcement are first responders. Legal, law-abiding gun owners = First Defenders, and it’s up to us to make sure that the first responders don’t find our mauled or dead bodies when they arrive on the scene. I will safeguard my family, I will safeguard my home and community, but will not make the same protection available to anyone who breaks in to my home.
