1/ We have been seeing this in #SanDiego in recent years: "Proud Boys" "Bordertown Patriots" clashed with protesters as @SDSheriff deputies watch- but failed to intervene

2/ A screen image of the "Border Patriots" group, showing a variation of the #SDsheriff address as their own.

In June, a group claimed to have "permission" from the Sheriff's office to be out after curfew to help with "protecting personal property." kpbs.org/news/2020/jun/…
3/ The original #KPBS article referred to these armed civilians as "would-be vigilantes."

When it was pointed out that their actions in #Santee made them "actual" vigilantes- they updated their report.
