Men and women stood with baseball bats, hand-guns, semi-automatic rifles, and shotguns in front of their businesses and homes.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>*************<\/p>\n<p>Many Kenoshans explained to me that law enforcement lacked the necessary numbers of officers to control the situation, forcing them to focus on defending public buildings, such as the courthouse, leaving citizens to fend for themselves.<\/p>\n<p>Chuck, who owns an uptown tire shop, said he has been spending every night on his roof guarding his shop \u201cwith guns.\u201d Chuck, who said he is \u201cfor Trump all the way,\u201d was exhausted from several sleepless nights and fed up with his livelihood and life being terrorized by Black Lives Matter rioters. Chuck glared into my iPhone camera and said to the rioters, \u201cCome to my shop and I\u2019ll blow your heads off.\u201d \u201cI\u2019ll even tell you where I\u2019m at,\u201d he said, adding, \u201cC\u2019mon, boys, I got something for your -sses.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Not everyone was as prepared as Chuck. People who did not take their defense into their own hands met a sad fate. Sam, an Indian immigrant who owns a family-run car dealership in downtown Kenosha, lost \u201cevery dime\u201d he has, and the 20 people Sam employed have all lost their jobs \u201cfor nothing.\u201d&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Overwhelmed law enforcement protected the courthouse, but Sam\u2019s business and many others were left at the mercy of the mob. \u201cI\u2019m a taxpayer,\u201d said Sam, clearly distraught that law enforcement did nothing to protect his business. \u201cThis is not the America I came into,\u201d the shattered man said. \u201cWhat did we do to deserve all this?\u201d he asked. \u201cI\u2019m a minority too. I\u2019m a brown person. I have nothing to do with this.\u201d Sam and his family set up a Go Fund Me page, which at this moment, has raised a little over $10,000, nowhere close to the over $2 million raised for Blake.<\/p>\n<p>After it was clear that law enforcement did not have the resources to protect people like Sam, Steil \u201cgot to work.\u201d On Tuesday morning he said he was able to get through to President Trump within \u201c8 minutes.\u201d Steil told the president that Kenosha was in desperate need of resources and reinforcements. President Trump then reached out to Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers, extending him an offer for aid, which Evers refused.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For three nights, Kenosha experienced dangerous rioting. It wasn\u2019t until three individuals were shot and two died that Evers accepted help from President Trump. \u201cIt\u2019s pretty darn clear who demonstrated leadership and who did not,\u201d said Steil. Since federal agents and national guardsmen were sent to Kenosha, there has been relative peace in the city.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>The overwhelming consensus among Kenoshans is that violent rioters did not come from their city. \u201cKenosha locals did not do this to their town, man!\u201d said Jason, who came to Kenosha to check on his family.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BLUF: For better or worse, Democrats have tied themselves politically to the Marxist Black Lives Matter organization.
