Civil Unrest


Attended a recruitment/information meeting last night put on by this organization. Intriguing, to say the least.

Their first point, they are not a militia. They are in opposition to the anarchists plaguing our country. They are building a military styled structure, squad, platoon, and state specific company with military style leadership and comms.

No one joins without a background check. A criminal record per se is not a disqualifier. Pedophilia, sex crimes in general and violent domestic violence is!  A one source uniform is required. No one carries a weapon, especially a long firearm, without first going through a training course including range time. Training is required before getting involved in public opposition to anarchists.

A photo I.D. was required to enter the meeting. The men and woman covering the entry were extremely fit and appeared to be ex spec warriors. The individual speaking was former Blackhawk.

My impression is these are serious people building a long term organization. They bring a background in asymmetrical war to counter the rogue Special Forces trained Antifa advisors.

Will I get involved? That requires some serious thinking on my part. At my age and level of physical fitness, what can I contribute? Money, yes, but they don’t seem intent on fund raising alone. As LL pointed out in a comment, we need to get involved in defending our country and way of life.

You can check them out.


On the lighter side, this seems to be a strange pairing.

My neighbors are in disagreement, in violation of their lease. My crappy picture doesn’t post well (thanks Blogger) but third floor apartment has a “Biden” sign in the window and the ground floor, a “Trump/Pence2000” sign in the window.

When the manager said the  USA flag, or any flags, weren’t to be flown, we veterans explained to him the error of that policy and the consequences to him, personally, if it were enforced.

"A Rose by any other name would smell as sweet".
Militia/Smilitia.
It used to mean EVERY able-bodied citizen that could carry a firearm.
Me?
I'm talking with neighbors about our "SUPER NEIGHBORHOOD WATCH".
That too is NOT a militia.

Excellent idea.

LOL, interesting organization and I'm glad you 'educated' the management about flags. We have our own 'organization' here locally... We'll augment local LEOs as needed.
