Great... we as a country are now accepting the actions of small groups of goons and/or militias? I thought the middle east was bad.

An Infowars representative acknowledged by telephone that the Oath Keeper's had a presence in Ferguson but said it had not asked them for security.
"We happen to be in some of the same circumstances as they are on occasion and ideologically we may share the same views," said the representative, who asked not to be named citing security concerns.
I find it entertaining that the guys with the big guns (and tiny something else) are so threatening and intimidating that not even the spokesperson from inforwars is willing to vouch for their presence there.
I would love to see one of these inbred hillbillies have their gun taken from them and be beaten to a pulp by the people they were trying to frighten. I hate these open carry losers, they make all gun owners look like idiots.
From another source I'd read they were acting like private security and I believe that during the Ferguson riots that CNN and others hired private security so they could cover the story.
Or they could wind up beaten with a concussion like the st. Louis reporter covering the story.

They said they were providing security for infowars.com but infowars said it had not asked for private security.
Now if the right demographic in Ferguson were even partly cohesive and calculating they could pattern a raid on these guys motel digs and scoop up everything but their underwear leaving their transport up on cement blocks.
Now there would be sight to behold; a group of red-necks wearing nothing but tightie whities hoofing it down mainstreet on their way out of Dodge. LOL.
In a part this is instigation and intimidation.. But.. The more I think about it.. I was going to say I have no problem with someone carrying a concealed weapon, which I still don't.. I have concerns about some nutjob on either side though..
How are the folks openly carrying going to react when some idiot starts throwing rocks at them?
But, of course, you could say how will some yahoo who is carrying a concealed weapon going to react in different situations?
Then you have what are the residents who are just itching to start problems going to do?
Most likely, your responsible gun owners, and hence, responsible people.. Are avoiding the area like the plague.
Both sides need to learn one thing.. Don't poke the bear.
Seems just about everyone involved should take a step back and think "Is what i'm doing REALLY a good idea?"
