That's a great point. You do what you're able to do.At my age I highly doubt the guy here would ask me to help kicking in doors or such but, if he wanted help? Hell yes I would help. He could easily use me in places where the younger LEO's could be better used in more "front line" kind of stuff.
the answer is yes, done it before and would in a heart beat.The sheriff of your county is the senior law enforcement officer. He has the authority to deputize as many citizens as he believes that he needs, under the Posse Comitatus act. Many of the Sheriff's Posse and reserve deputies are commissioned under this act.
If things got to the point where the sheriff needed the help and put out the call, would you have the equipment to respond and would you be willing to follow the orders that you were given? As an interesting aside, the only person that can arrest the sheriff is the county coroner!
I would show up with my rifle that I hit very small objects at very long distances. I old ,but not deadMe? Personally similar to this if not identically; my personal body armor rig with ammo pouches and hydro pack for 5.56 and 9mm. Probably would add utility pockets if required and IFAK on belt with pistol. Can't speak for @sobo Though View attachment 733305

Some of the Antifa fools tried going out of the libral controlled city.I think those choices would be excellent. I've read (in different places) that the thugs in downtown Portland figure that if they armed themselves they could overwhelm local law enforcement and then go on to inflict some real damage. There are a lot of tough talkers on the inter web, but when the going gets tough only the tough get going. I figured that even at my advanced age, I'd be able to equip myself and help local law enforcement, if called upon to do so. I have absolutely no desire to harm anyone, but I also won't stand around and wish someone would help me either.
You think our stuff will be safe in your rig?@sobo and @CamoDeafie, you can lock all your guns and stuff that you brought in the back of my truck while we work, if you want... that stuff is gonna get heavy
You guys were ready to go straight to war... that's the spirit! Americans love to fight.
