Left-Wing Militias — A Growing Threat

We need to be prepared to deal with home invaders, street criminals, rioters and — after a crisis hits — looters and scavengers. Now there’s a new threat that needs to be considered; heavily armed far-left militias seeking an “armed struggle” against society.

Far Left Watch recently reported that “the recent spike in political violence has come overwhelmingly from the Left. Even more concerning is the growth of far-left organizations openly advocating ‘armed struggle,’ especially considering the targeted shooting of Republican Majority Whip Steve Scalise and three others by a deranged left-wing activist.”
A leading far-left militia is Redneck Revolt, which claims to have 30 branches already and is growing fast. It describes itself as a “pro-worker, anti-racist organization” — but it’s calling for an armed struggle against “the oppressive systems which dominate our lives.”
It’s easy to see what groups like this mean by “oppressive systems.” Redneck Revolt sent a group of openly-armed members to a MAGA rally in Phoenix last March, in a blatant attempt to intimidate supporters of our elected president.
Groups like this are likely to seize any opportunity to use violence as a political tool. They’re armed, they’re informing themselves about guerilla warfare tactics and they’re spoiling for a fight. You can’t assume you’ll be facing untrained criminals; with far-left militias in the picture you need to be ready for a serious fight.
