Petition Calls For The National Guard To Disarm Militia Holding One Pennsylvania Town Hostage

[AgingAmerican]

The psycho Police Chief is at it again.

Following a public meeting in the Borough of Gilberton, Pennsylvania, in which armed supporters of the infamous Police Chief Mark Kessler blocked members of the community from entering the building, citizens have created a We The People Petition at Whitehouse.gov calling for federal intervention in the town. The petition asks for the National Guard to disarm the suspended police chief and his followers, who call themselves the “Constitution Security Force.”




Police Chief Kessler has created such an environment of threat and intimidation, local citizens have started a petition to request federal intervention.

1. Hey, guys, those terrorists you're looking for?

2. Oh, he's one of those "Constitutional Law Enforcement Officers"?

I'm sure this will end well.

16. An Anarchist To Be Sure

There can never be a good outcome when somebody thinks they are above the law. And the Bible is not the law according to the 1st Amendment's establishment clause.

3. Just what we need, more fascist gun nuts

[sabrina 1]

4. This isn't a terrorist?

Tensions began in the Borough of Gilberton after the local Chief of Police posted online videos of himself firing automatic weapons while calling for violence against Democrats and making veiled threats toward Secretary of State John Kerry

He's threatening to kill Democrats, half the country, and poses with his nutcase loony friends hodling weapons to show they mean business, and he gets 'suspended'?

Imagine of he was a Muslim how this would be reported.

They are TERRORISTS. All these laws we are told are there to protect us, all the spying. Now they have a name, how about they get an old-fashioned warrant, showing probable cause, to take a look at his data being that he has threatened the Sec of State and half the country?

8. We save our drones for the brown people "over there"

Oh yeah, I know, sometimes we miss our target and kill some innocent women, men and children and incinerate villages, but at least we protect our armed terrorists right here at home.

USA! USA! USA!

5. They've become an organized crime gang

It's probably more appropriate for the FBI to step in at this point.

But yes, those yahoos need to have their toys taken away and some time in the jug to convince them maybe they're not wearing the white hats, after all.

Rear ends full of antipsychotics might also help them reconnect with reality.

[theHandpuppet]

9. With the arsenal at these nutbags' disposal...

How would you like to be the one to make the arrest? Hell, their own neighbors are terrified of them.

[Warpy]

25. The FBI can call in a hell of a lot of firepower for shitbags like these

They're the Branch Davidians without a a god to blame for it.

[HiPointDem]

6. wow. now that is creepy.

[AgingAmerican]

12. His 'militia' showed up at a disciplinary hearing brandishing weapons

Over a hundred of them. The guy obviously has a David Koresh complex.

10. Gilberton officials demand inventory of suspended police chief's guns

In letter, Schuylkill County borough also advises Mark Kessler to remove references to his job from the Internet
By Peter Hall, Of The Morning Call

Gilberton officials want an inventory of embattled police Chief Mark Kessler's firearms registered in the borough's name.

And they want Kessler, who was suspended last week over his profane, pro-gun YouTube videos, to scrub the Internet of any reference to his employment as Gilberton's police chief.

In a letter to Kessler through his lawyer last week, Gilberton Solicitor Karen L. Domalakes said officials have been made aware that Kessler purchased many guns in the name of the borough police department.

"At this time we are requesting an inventory of the weapons currently registered in the name of the Borough of Gilberton Police Department. We also need to know the location of these guns," Domalakes said in the letter dated Thursday ...

11. Fortunately there's a state prison in Frackville where the Chief can spend the next twenty years.

13. Is there anything or anyone who could persuade people like Nugent, Savage, Beck and others

to put a lid on it? If this escalates, are they going to cheer or blame others? Seems like this is what they've been asking for.

I know. Silly question.

[blackspade]

14. If you are blocking the community from a public meeting

you are not part of a 'Constitution Security Force'.
You are a pack of armed thugs that should be arrested.

[Volaris]

15. Peaceful Protest is one thing, but this...

THIS is the attempted shutting down of the duly elected, functioning Local Government by people with ARMS. And these people call themselves "Citizens of a Democratically elected Republic". Not so much, and Not Any More.
The FBI should be checking this out, and if they don't think it's within their jurisdiction, than DAMN RIGHT its a job for the National Guard. It will be funny to see how (not) really willing the loons are with their little pea shooters when the men with the 50-cal's show up to disarm them. If I didn't understand, IN ADVANCE, the tradegy that would unfold, I would find this fall-down funny.

These people don't understand how government works if they think the only government that should be allowed to function is the one THEY voted for. Honestly, how hard is it to fail this badly at Democracy (and that's about the least vulgar thing I can say about these people)?

17. They Are In Insurrection Against the State of Pennsylvania

and the United States. Let them be hanged.

18. does this mean if other 'freedom fighters' wanted to 'liberate' his small town

they could do so without any fear of him calling for federal aid ?

lol

btw, love how hes the classic freedom loving right winger with the comments disabled in all his videos.. lmao

[ladyVet]

19. So, a bunch of white Murkins show up...

I bet if these were black people, we would be seeing mass arrests and charges of terrorism, shortly followed by disappearances into rendition camps.

[JHB]

21. If they were black, it'd be the only thing on FOX for weeks.

They had people all over the country crapping in their pants over the New Black Panther Party, and it has yet to be established that the NBPP has enough members to fill a school bus.

So over a black hundred people brandishing weapons and blocking access to a public hearing? It's be this, DO IT LIVE (as Billo would say):

[randome]

20. But...I thought when someone says 'Protect the Constitution', all debate is supposed to end!

22. Isn't this against the law? Or is there no law? Not in Gilberton PA, I guess. (nt)

[AgingAmerican]

24. It has to be

I read elsewhere that the police chief is strip searching any council members that disagree with him politically. Also, the major media outlets are refusing to cover the story.

It's nuts.

[Orrex]

23. Wouldn't Corbett have to authorize a National Guard mobilization?

Good luck with that.
