You
might have seen them on the news. The people protecting Ferguson
businesses from the arsonists and looters ransacking Ferguson, Mo. But
here is the real story about the organization protecting those
businesses. They're called Oath Keepers, and they have ex-police and
ex-military keeping guard of four Ferguson businesses since late Monday
night, Nov. 24, at the permission of the business owners.
They've
been shown in the media before, but the report was incorrect, according
to Stewart Rhodes, national founder of president of the Oath Keepers,
who stressed that the group is not just business owners.
"We
are not. We are military and police veterans who are volunteer security
for local businesses. We have Iraq and Afghanistan combat vets in the
rooftops, along with retired cops, guarding the shops," he said.
The
four businesses include Natalie's Cakes and More, a bakery that was
featured on Fox News, a beauty supply store, a dentist's office and a
Chinese restaurant.
In addition to their
work keeping businesses safe, and the people living there, the group
has also seen some totally bizarre interactions by the federal
government and the state highway patrol.
According
to Rhodes, "We had an alarming incident that happened last night with
our team spotting what looked like a fed three-man sniper team moving
into a nearby house on higher ground, and then pointing their rifles at
our team of American combat veterans, while our team was guarding the
buildings against looters."
Rhodes said
the team even observed the state highway patrol snipers deploy onto the
roof of a nearby fire hall and point rifles at them.
"Our team leader called Unified Command to find out what was going on and then local police responded," he explained.
He
said that the local police were unaware of what the federal government
were doing and that there was no coordination. "The local police are on
our side and expressed gratitude for us being there, but the Feds are
trying to run us out."
