[QUOTE="Old Man Jingles, post: 4525903, member: 18222"] [B][SIZE=7]This is the solution Serf![/SIZE][/B] [URL='https://www.npr.org/sections/live-updates-protests-for-racial-justice/2020/06/10/873751544/the-concerned-citizen-who-happens-to-be-armed-is-showing-up-at-protests'][SIZE=6][B]The 'Concerned Citizen Who Happens To Be Armed' Is Showing Up At Protests[/B][/SIZE][/URL] They say they're there to keep things peaceful. Missoula hasn't seen any rioting or looting associated with a week's worth of protests, but if some people incite violence, the men plan to enter the crowd and grab them. They carry handguns and other weapons in case someone starts shooting, they say. "I'm not going to bring fists to a gunfight, man," Justin says. They say they want to protect demonstrators, but there are also rumors that busloads of antifa activists are coming to incite riots in small towns and cities across the country. "I'm not racist, I have zero problems with people protesting, and I support it 100%," he says. "But I don't support my town getting burned down." Wyoming, Minnesota, Pennsylvania and other states have seen armed people responding to antifa rumors. "We do see people sharing these messages out of fear," says Joan Donovan, "The idea of an outside force coming in and invading your small town in particular does feel threatening." However, antifa, a loose network of left-wing activists who sometimes violently confront fascists and white supremacists, is [URL='https://www.hcn.org/articles/north-social-justice-what-really-is-antifa']more of a movement than a well-oiled organization[/URL].
