Join me every thursday on the simon show and ill be speaking to us from the world of politics sport im sure ill see you then. The u. S. Has a history complicated and heated president ial election whats different this time is that the biggest political events of the last 4 years is happening amid the coronavirus and precedents of the level of civil unrest sparked by the death of george floyd and the lies of the radical groups on both sides of the political spectrum. Right there is your. Say. These groups attract very angry members who have taken to the streets make intro tasks look like full scale what you see here were going to be ok whats about. This demonstrators are sometimes heavily armed and they are not afraid of violence or Law Enforcement. If you will of war let it begin with us. Or go into trouble across the u. S. Over the next week to meet those groups and their leaders to find out how far theyre ready to go to fight for what they believe the stupid for this country. We are in virginia members of a group called the Boogaloo Boys the big boys have been around for several years now but the recently came into the media spotlight during the summers and say lockdown and government protests in august several dozen heavily armed men and Tactical Gear carrying the big guns showed up for a rally in virginia capital richmond. Among the demonstrators were the blue borish who could be identified from their bright line shirts they were but if their bulletproof vests this became one of their symbol their style if you will has been reported in the american. Asked that many of the movements and here are preparing for a 2nd civil war. So now were about to meet one of the most prominent voice might a flamboyant 20 year old former marine from virginia who was at the forefront of an armed protest in this state. How many guns do you have personally yeah. But we probably have over 50 why do you need to have. To have somebody. Exactly what does that mean its just mean to tell us it means revolution revolution what kind of revolution whatever revolution needs to happen whether it be. A mind revolution or if you know the u. S. Keeps going the past its going. We will still the constitution into its rightful place as the supreme law of the land in one of the interviews you talk about the french revolution. Basically. Just to start everything from scratch. With the way government has gone things and they did a complete reset. And that is coming to the United States is a distant thing in your opinion or if it is something that is right around the corner i cant really nail point where. Everybody would just rise up and say were done but were in the early stages of the revolution as it is you look at the civil unrest across the u. S. Groups like gold and say were tarred with done with it were already in the early stages of a revolution. Mike was arrested for it openly carrying something that is prohibited in the city of newburgh new where we are legal in the state of virginia it was later released and today hes staging a rally in front of the Newport News Police have student demonstrate his disagreement with the law that as he sees it takes away his right to bear firearms. Wrong thing for them to do if you want to try if you. Are. The chief of police. This is the city thats become a flashpoint for civil unrest thats probably the most extreme this country has seen since the vietnam era. Severe riots and brutal street fights tear gas rubber bullets even public burnings the american flags have become regular sites important there are constant fights between the left and activists and. Why of. Course a lot of people talk about the divisions in america. Thats taking place. You can see completely. And at its most extreme. Portland has a long history of active protests and a long history of an activist culture many of these protests had their origin in the protests after the 2016 election and then later what we started to see after black ive a matter of b. L. M. Movement was more sustained commitment to being on the screen im. President wrong has repeatedly accused an organization called. The most extreme violence and destruction on oregon streets the violence and vandalism is being led by intifada and other radical left wing groups what is anti thought now the antifascists tend to be committed to a couple of basic ideas the idea that there antiracist many of them will all to refer to themselves as antirape protesters and if you went out in the interview people that dont describe themselves and they bash you have a hard time finding out with the leader because it doesnt seem as if there are leaders. Who are you guys more than teeth or you just regular protesters and seafood is a ideology its a belief a lot of people only but its not a group i myself my wife and most of us were just protesters why the needs the night with this is for several things one im a nice fanatic i love plates and its also for self Protection Self protection week from home a lot of people theres a lot of people that they see me with you know b. L. M. Sure or Something Like that and they dont like each im struck by. What is making the upcoming election is im heard a lot of things that are on the believe this is the most turbulent in the room right now coming up next and i still like to hear from you know this point. You seem to hear. About. It like it is still pretty much here. But when you see civil war how do you picture in this the citizens like him police have to take. Against the police against racism. Theres just to be able to. People talk about the civil war and how theyre going to take a firearm so easily this time its quite disturbing and the way this man with a knife he agreed to take us to one of the portland street protests tonight and well see how it goes hopefully no one gets hurt. Were in the land sea the capital of state of michigan and we came here for 2 reasons 1st there is going to be a huge unity rally in front of the city which is about to start and 2nd made the National News recently when several local militia members were arrested for plotting to kidnap the states governor according to the f. B. I. And were ready to storm the States Capital right here and if need be to start a civil war days before the november election so lets find out whats going on here. And whats her name. Sure so and why do you need to you know cover your face is that a thing or you just dont want to be disclosed the little bit of oh were here to have a conversation with. Militia groups then why do you have to carry a gun. It was because its like constitutional right to do so although where many men whatever they identify as up here have the right to bomb themselves the point. The government. In American Media groups like they usually mean portrayed in pretty much nationalist or races while its not exactly true because as you just saw they had an africanamerican guy on the steps on the makeshift stage who was giving a speech and we seen a really good welcome. What do you think about this story that a legend. Of the local government i dont think it was smart i dont think it was good to do so at all but i get one reason why the. Well one guy. Lost his job and no funding to go live in the guys face but what would you how would you feel i could answer that definitely not attempting to kidnap. A local official but theres nothing done. And that is why you. Are a. Nation of 360000000 people. Under one central government. By some of ours. You. Just deployed on what just happened to this guy mike duffy you came up to the Police Department. Arm to win. An Assault Rifle as well as dozens of the boys and guess what Nothing Happened not only they werent arrested the Police Department actually provided them with the sound system so they can have this makeshift stage and you know the demonstration. Right male great you can get your tickets. Its a casket. Well they didnt like willow thing. Why do you want to know unclear why its friday the rest its a day because were all here and were all heavily armed where you know side and they know they messed with one of us theyre going to mess with all of us the sound what kind of masses does it sound to you these people well the message would be if youre alone you wont get your way but if you show up as a group theres organized and have an army thats way you get out of people the police and government to listen to you. 3 fold. In. 6 the black community is the biggest gun purchase in communities in america right now and has been for the last 4 years the word change than 4 years ago. But whats also interesting about that particular rally is that white men with guns have come out together here with the members of the local black life Member Community with africanamericans and you would think those groups or kind of natural animus but as it turns out its not when they have a common foe. Police or the government might step you want to civil war a lot of us to fully prepare for that. So what weve got to do is identify the threats that we have its crazy. Let it be an arms race in spearing Dramatic Development the only posts really im going to resist i dont see how that strategy will be successful its very critical. To sit down and talk. Baseball helmet thats really good for stop and anything for a. Gas mask if we went to home depot the other day to get some for us but they were in our trains out they are not selling but since the start of. This rioting and protesting. Something they say that the protestors use them as a way to avoid the nonlethal that they use at the road. So he literally did it to stop us from having a way to protect our souls from the gas. Just to let you know about the environment in the city with come to the Portland Police associations office to interview members of a local Law Enforcement community about the on go when protests and riots. As it turns out the office was attacked by demonstrators just a few days ago. Blocked off the street cars ah and then set fire to the building after an am running windows and the front door and these captions on adjacent buildings cops are killers and kill the process. Arent you guys concerned just about the level of the division and. The anger were getting so much fun all were trying to do is spread love were trying to get. We dont want to be better than you we just one of the equal to you. Its been 5 and a half months and nothing worse has happened we havent gone to any building. We have stored in the past wires old holes when or when around it started taking hostage what are you afraid of. Explaining about the long what is it its covering everything from did so. That leaves nothing showing but the eyes thats the exact same part of the look good the police force thats down there where they were there when black from head to toe with body. Were not afraid of. Were not afraid of the people were supposed to be eager to serve us and us the ones that are. If you put little boys out of the railway lensing and some of them about as you one of their shooting practice. Although them are big got a through z. And it would be really interesting to see them in a more relaxed informal setting. What do you guys do for a living. I work. But i mean youll have regular jobs you know. Were just normal people i mean we really we go about our day we go work. For families. So i know that the gun sales soared in the. Right to do so. You know to defend themselves if they if need be. Arent you afraid that the country maybe. Leads to greater civil conflict. Revolutions civil war i do worry. That we are headed down and. I think it is you know its inevitable. Its have 3 ways. Its. The voice box. You have the ballot box. And unfortunately. I worry because of our election and. Its a wait and see approach right now. Or if. There is going to be more right. Now because. Either side conceding no matter which candidate wins will you commit to making sure that there is a peaceful transfer of power. To see what happens. There is no more conversations if the boat will move it you know we do feel concerned for what happens when the talking. Portland is like a Training Ground for everything that might go wrong after the president ial election it already has and im going turf war between rival political movements and then be a lamb on one side and then you have all sorts of false far right the right wing organizations such as proud boys or Patriot Prayer on the other american Mainstream Media usually percs raise them as racists or White Supremacists so lets find this out. Why do you call yourself a Patriot Prayer what does that mean i believe that in order to truly fight for freedom that you have to be able to have a connection with god or at least it helps you and that great fire heavenly father we just thank you so much for this Beautiful Day its cold but we love it lord were just so thankful that youve given us this country. And all it really looks like in regular demonstrations and rallies but the only thing is they have armed guards across the area patrolling in constantly being on alert. We came for the rally for you with the security so to speak a little google. A little bit of both make sure anyone does well in the Mainstream Media they usually call you racist or white supremacist but i have to say about that yes thats what people say when they dont have any other argument so they cant attack what i say they cant attack what i do and so they just go to racist yeah absolutely no the issues with africanamericans or any other people of color of course not we have tons of them that come to the rallies with us you are an African American and use it for donald trump obviously and this is kind and usual i would say im not really theres a lot of black people who support. Africanamericans treat you when they found out that you are on the right side of the political spectrum its normal to get some of the hardcore like you know him guys that when he has a house negro call you on what you think about the movements like be a lamb and all that kind of thing but it is a Domestic Terrorist Organization and again i was standing in downtown portland. Approached him as he would somebody what he was we pulled and. Thats kind of one of the local stars here at the rally and this guy named philip was controversial in the face and lost his teeth. You know until now and i never met him before he literally just remember i mean sucker punched me just because he saw that i was going into an event. I think that donald trump will win and i think i do you know whens he going to burn down a lot of things in murder in killing to beat up a lot of people thats what i expect them to know what is really going to thats just tolerance for the cauldron thats what they do. At this point are willing to settle for biden because we dont have any other alternative but its going to be the last one hes going to be the last time. A president rather than someone like the goal of not just the b. L. M. The goal of the whole country is to change the system. And if the next president doesnt go away then what we bring him down so. Upset. And. Whats going on here this is one of. Maybe shouters for the b. L. M. Movement. This was a kind of a get together. Spirit. We dont swallow it was not somebody really dropped it was that i said its my pleasure to get it was pretty well was their closing line it was something about the revolution. As its revolution. Is it. We are going to make this country great for the 1st time says. This stuff but on. November 3rd come it all. No matter who wins things are going to be. So tense because its wrong for your leg its going to be a bar more for worse level where youre going to have a lot more people. Its going to be out here. And at that point i dont believe its going to be civil. So its a wrap for tonight so. There wasnt much of a protest going on in foreign funds this weekend which is weird. But as many people who we talked to think this might be calm before the storm before the election. We should have a revolution every 20 years the tree of liberty must be refreshing from time to time with the blood of patriots and of tartus. And you know its time for all good men to stand up the tree needs water and. Join me everything on the alex salmond chill and ill be speaking to us of the world of politics sport this list im show business ill see you then. This is the time to be here on america. I will be a president of the all americans joe biden declares victory in the u. S. President ial election the Media Projections give the Democratic Victory in the key states like pennsylvania taking him over the National Threshold needed to win. Donald trump runs the election fraudulent and insists he won a twist might be possible as republicans launch no 6 over a late surge in useful ballots but biden. Was
