contributing it's your own way but we also know that this crisis will not go on forever the challenges create the response has been so many good people are helping us. it makes us feel very proud that we're in it together. the u.s. has a history of complicated and heated presidential what's different this time is that the biggest political events of the last 4 years is happening amid the coronavirus and the rest 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

this is your. say. these groups attract very young members who have taken to the streets making protests look like full scale. here we're going to be ok what's about to. visit demonstrators are sometimes heavily armed and they are not afraid of violence or law enforcement. if you will a 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 they're ready to go to fight for what they believe just did for this country. we are in virginia members of a group called the. 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 in tactical gear carrying big guns showed up for a rally in virginia's capital richmond. among the demonstrators were the boogie boards who could be identified from their bright line shirts they were but if their bulletproof vests this became one of their symbols their style if you will has been reported in the american. that many of the movements and here are preparing for a 2nd civil war. so now we're 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 it's just mean to 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 on the past at school and. he will still the constitution into its rightful place as the supreme law of the land in one of the interviews you talked 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 can't really nail point where. everybody would just rise up and say we're done but we're in the early stages of the revolution as it is you look at civil unrest across the u.s. you look at groups like mine that are standing tall and say we're tarred with done with it we're already in the early stages of the revolution. mike was arrested for it openly carrying something that is prohibited in the city of newburgh new where we are but legal in the state of virginia it was later released and today he's staging a rally in front of the newport news police have water students 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 if you let me deal with. the chief of police. this is the city that is becoming a flashpoint for civil unrest that's 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. why of. course a lot of people talk about the divisions in america. and that's taking place while . you can see completely out in the open 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 i've a matter of b.l.m. movement was more sustained commitment to being on the street i'm.

president truong 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 anti-fascists tend to be committed to a couple of basic ideas the idea that their anti-racist many of them will also refer to themselves as and i raised the protesters if you went out in the interview people that don't describe themselves and they bash you have a hard time finding out with the leader because it doesn't seem as if there are leaders. who are you guys more than teeth or you just regular protesters and seafood is a ideology it's a belief a lot of people only but it's 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 i'm a nice fanatic i love plates and it's also for self protection self protection week from home a lot of people there's a lot of people that they see me with you know b.l.m. sure or something like that and they don't like each other stuff like. what is making the upcoming election is i'm heard a lot of things that are on the lead just the most turbulent in the room right now coming up next and i still like to hear from you know this. you seem to hear. about. it like it is simple as you say pretty much here. but when you see civil war how do you picture in this the citizens. police have to take. against the police against racism. or so just to be able to live.

people talk about the civil war and how they're going to take a firearm so easily this time this is quite disturbing and the way this man with a knife he agreed to take us to one of the portland street protests tonight and we'll see how it goes hopefully no one gets hurt. we're in the lensing 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 state's governor according to the f.b.i. the men and were ready to storm the state's capital right here and if need be to start a civil war days before the november election so let's find out what's going on here.

and what's her name. sure so and why do you need to you know cover your face is that a thing or you just don't want to be disclosed will bit of oh we're here to have a conversation with. militia groups then why do you have to carry a gun. with the. constitutional right to do so all of these women men whatever they identify as up here have the right to bomb themselves. point. the government. in the american media groups like they usually mean portrayed it is to prevent nationalist or races while it's

not exactly true because as you just saw they had an african-american guy on the steps on the makeshift stage who was giving a speech and you seem to really good well. what do you think about this story that a legend. of the local government i don't think it was smart i don't think it was good to do so at all but i get one reason why. the one guy. lost his job and no funding to go live in the guy's face but what would you how would you feel i could answer that definitely not attempting to kidnap. a local official but there's nothing. and that is why you have to build a little face. the nation on 360000000 people. central government. by some old powers.

from. just a week side they just happen to this guy. came up to the police department. armed with. an assault rifle as well as dozens of the boys and just one nothing and not only that they weren't 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 breaking into your.

casket. well they do this like willow thing. why do you know unclear why it's friday the rest it's a day because we're all here and we're all heavily armed where you know side and they know they messed with one of us they're going to mess with all of us the sound what kind of message does it sound to you these people well the message would be if you're alone you won't get your way but if you show up as a group that is organized and have an arm that's way you get other people the police the 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 and the word change that 4 years ago. what's also interesting about that

particular rally is that white men with guns have come out together with the members of the local black lives matter community with african-americans and you would think those groups or kind of natural animus but as it turns out it's not when they have a common foe. police or the government might step you want to civil war a lot of 1st of all be prepared for that. the bill arrives with a big table of the reset and. global powers decide who pays what and according to what you're saying there looks like. the u.s. to pay the most because that economy is the worst in terms of how abusive it's been

in using the world reserve currency the u.s. dollar to expand its empire. to the far reaches of the globe. hedgerow minium this now no longer works.

baseball helmet that's really good for stopping anything from a. gas mask we went to home depot the other day to get some for us but they were now it turns out they are not selling them since the start of. this rioting and protesting and. they say that the protesters use them as a way to avoid the non-lethal that they use at the road. so he literally did it to stop us from having a way to protect ourselves from the gas. just to let you know about the environment in this 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 days ago. blocked off the street with cars ah and then said wire to the building after i am running windows and the front door and these captions on adjacent buildings cops are killers and kill the process. aren't you guys concerned just about the level of the division and. the anger getting so much fun all we're trying to do is spread love we're trying to get. we don't want to be better than you we just one of the equal to you. it's been 5 and a half months and nothing worse has happened we haven't gone to any building. we

have stored in the past wires on calls when or when around and started taking hostages what are you afraid of. explaining about the long what is it it's covering everything from head to toe in black that leaves nothing showing but the eyes that's the exact same part of the look good the police force that's down there what are they wearing. black from head to toe with body. we're not afraid of. we're not afraid of the people we're supposed to be here to serve us and us the ones that are.

if you pull the boys out of the railway lensing and some of them about us you one of their shooting practice. all of them are big i think. 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 you'll have regular jobs you know.

we're 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 u.s. is that. whether they're. right to do so. you know to defend themselves if they if need be. afraid that the country may be. leads to greater civil conflict. around the loucheux civil war i do worry. that we are headed down that. i think it is you know it's inevitable. it's have 3 ways. it's. the voice box. you have the ballot

box. and unfortunately. i worry what becomes of our election and. it's 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 stuff.

portland is like a training ground for everything that might go wrong after the presidential election it already has and i'm going turf war between rival political movements you know and and feel i am on one side and then you have all sorts of far right the right wing organizations such as proud boys or patriot prayer on the other american mainstream media usually per trey's them as racists or white supremacists so let's 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 it's cold but we love it lord we're just so thankful that you've 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. constantly being on alert. we came for the rally for you with the security so to speak a little bit of all. a little bit of both make it go right on those in the mainstream media they usually call you racist or white supremacist what you have to say about that so that's what people say when they don't have any other argument so

they can attack what i say they can type what i do and so they just go to racist yeah absolutely no issues with african-americans 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 of the usual i would say i'm not really there's a lot of black people that support. african-americans treat you when you they found out that you are on the right side of the political spectrum is normal you get some of the hardcore laid below him guys that when he was a house negro call you uncle tom what do you think about the movements like to be a lamb. i think it is a domestic terrorist organization again i was stabbed in downtown portland. approached him as he would somebody why do you keep going on as we pulled a knife. that's kind of one of the local stores here at the rally and this guy's name is philip was

controversial in the face and lost his teeth. they were don't know him i never met him before he little industry up behind me and 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 when's he going to burn down a lot of things in murder in killing to beat up a lot of people that's what i expect that you know what it's really going to that's just tolerance for you to tolerate less that's what they do.

at this point are willing to settle for biden because we don't have any other alternative but it's going to be the last one he's going to be the last time. a president rather than someone like the goal of not just the b.l.m. but the goal of the whole country is to change the system. and if the next president doesn't give you your way then one day we bring him down so. upset. and. what's going on here this is one of the many chapters for the b.l.m. movement this was a kind of a get together. spirit. we don't shout it was not somebody

really dropped it it was the i'm such a pleasure to get it was pretty well was there a closing line there was something about the revolution. that. it's revolution. is it. we are going to make this country great for the 1st time says well disciplined. november 3rd come at all. no matter who wins things are going to be. so tense because it's wrong for your leg it's going to be a bar more for worse level where you're going to have a lot more people. it's going to be out here. and at that point i don't believe it's going to be civil. so

it's a wrap for tonight so. there wasn't much of a protest going on in foreign funds this weekend which is weird. but as many people who we talked to the thing. might be calm before the storm before the election. you should have a revolution every 20 years the tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and of tartus. and you know it's time for all good men the stand up the tree needs watering.

join me every thursday on the song i'm sure i'll be speaking to get a feel of the world but. i'm sure i'll see about.

a. terrorist situation in copperas hold with shootings at several locations including near a synagogue at least 3 people have been killed companies are searching for at least one perpetrator witnesses describe the situation. i saw the. running through various bars and restaurants am my friend really weren't even born in gone astray in the city center and then we heard some shootings. at least one quote is a terrorist was behind this terrorist attack in vienna according to authorities that there has been international condemnation of the.
