mountaineer:
This is what happens when local government fails. Law-abiding citizens attempt to do the job of protecting their neighbors.

HARTFORD, CT (WFSB) - In Hartford, different measures are being discussed to combat crime in the capital city.
One of those methods includes an armed neighborhood watch that is set to begin Saturday.
That armed self-defense brigade starts in the north end Saturday morning at 10 a.m.
The bishop behind it said something different needs to be done. ...
Burke talked about why he’s helping organize these armed patrols and how it’ll work.
“They are licensed. And I’ve said this before, they’re licensed by the state of Connecticut. It’s not just some people running around with guns. These are individuals who are competent and who’ve done this before, they are professionals, they are educated. They’re law-abiding citizens and they’re saying we’re willing to help the police,” said Burke. ...

That most of those patrolling with their legally-owned firearms are black men makes it even nicer.

Citizens stepping up because the shitty government won't do its job. An armed society is a polite one. #FAFO

Weird Tolkienish Figure:
Hartford has been a shithole ever since i have lived in Connecticut. It's in the running with B-port as the worst shithole in CT.
Smokin Joe:
An interesting experiment.
Results will tell the tale.
Wingnut:
Hartford's Mayor Arunan Arulampalam (sounds like a venereal disease) is against citizens defending their community.
Par for the course for someone who was born in a shithole country.
