Since 1979 the “Guardian Angels,” founded by Curtis Silwa, has protected the dark and hard to reach for police areas of New York. Recently, they have been roaming the Chinatown area to protect those who may be discriminated against because of Coronavirus.
Last night, the group was nearby a Footlocker when they heard that it was going to be robbed by rioters following a peaceful protest. The group of 5-6 men headed to the Footlocker, intending on not allowing individuals break into it. That was approximately 8pm. The Guardian Angels were able to force the young men back.
Around 10 pm, about a hundred people came back. The group of protectors was still able to hold the looters back until around 10:45 when police showed up.
“They tried to get in, but we were going to let them. I got hit,” Sliwa recalled. “But we don’t back down, and we don’t surrender or retreat. We don’t have guns or weapons, but we all have martial arts training, and we do get physical if we have too.”
Here’s a short video of the aftermath:

Sliwa and Company Show THE SANE WAY TO HANDLE CRIMINALS & THE IGNORANT !!!!…R.
Kudos to guardian angels
Kudos to guardian angels!
The so-called protestors are just rioters, set on doing damage and stealing whatever they can, Kudos to the angels; if there were nore people who would be willing to stand up to the criminals.
Lad to hear GAs are up, Hope Hells Angels will do the sane
Glad to see GAs stepping/ Always admired them. Wish the Hell;s angels would wake up
I think this is great and wish all veterans and Patriots would pull together to do the same thing.
I have never lived anywhere close to NY, but from all I hear about the GA’s, I have deep respect for them. They are a successful organization for good in NYC. I also have deep respect for the Proud Boys. They are fighting an even higher angle to success. For every PB that shows up to quell rioting by Antifa, there are 10-100’s of antifa on the scene. Any way: Bravo Zulu, Guardian Angles!
Only MENTALLY RETARDED and CORRUPT people will vote for the MENTALLY RETARDED and CORRUPT DEMO-RATS. How sad!
Thanks for caring keep up the great work you are doing 👍
These guys do great work, my hat go’s out to them.
I think it’s wonderful with the guardian angels are doing but also feel so bad for the person trying to protect the footlocker and getting hit with a hammer in the face, terrible
if the police can’t protect us, then where are the vigilantes?
if people cannot protect their property and homes, and the police hands are tied, where are the vigilante? if the police can’t protect us, then we need to go back to protecting ourselves.
It’s obvious that the public finds plenty of reason to respond…The majority of all people in the U.S are pissed at the death of George Floyd….That should not have happened ….Are there truly racist cops??? Yes ..They need to go…Having said that the majority of police really want only to protect and serve…With out police what your seeing would be a common occurrence…There is security in numbers…Bring in the guard to do what they did…Secure areas which they did…They did not have to use force anywhere and that is the out come that we want…Antifa are terrorists and anarchist…If the… Read more »
Thank goodness there are still people that are still willing to place themselves in harms way to protect those that cannot protect themselves…. The Guardian Angels have been and still are one of these groups. Kudos to them….
It is just a shame that they don’t have guns and cannot shoot the Antifa bastards…. This is why there are no Antifa raids in Mississippi. They would try once and they would be dead after that. Bingo no more Antifa riots…..
Thank GOD and Governor Tate for the Castel Doctornen….
Thank God For These Guardian Angels – JOB WELL DONE
Good to see the Guardian angels out there and now to get those conservative Hells Angels who protected Trump to stand up to those thugs – they might send a tougher message!
The people policing their neighborhoods are the epitome of civil defense. More power to them.
WONDERFUL
Thank you Guardian Angel’s, it’s going to take the citizens to stand up against looters and violent groups like Antifia. I support peaceful protests. As long as they do not hinder the rights of others. When that happens I’m willing to listen and interact. When looting and violence start and is not shut down by the peaceful protesters, it’s hard for me to be willing to listen. Again thank you Guardian Angel and all other groups protecting their neighbors and hoods.
