Unarmed “Guards”!?
During the murderous “ISIS attack” at a Moscow (Russia) concert last Friday, uniformed (but unarmed) guards were generously posted at strategic points throughout the venue, as one might expect.
As one might also expect, all those unarmed guards fled in panic (along with everyone else, sometimes ahead of everyone else) when the first shots were fired!
“Official” toll stands at 133 innocent dead (the real number we’ll probably never know), and the presence of unarmed guards, in all likelihood, had no influence on that number.
Unarmed guards were, as they always are, impotent “security theater” and nothing more.
So far as has been reported, at the entire venue, the only ones who were armed, the only ones who did any shooting, were terrorists!
Thus it appears in this regard Russians as stupid as we are, and ISIS [or CIA] obviously knows that only too well!
For the foreseeable future, my advice is:
- ) Stay away from crowded events like this one, no matter where you live.
- ) Don’t naively “out-source” your own safety.
When there is a terrorist attack, the presence of unarmed “guards” will have zero effect on the outcome, as we see.
As we also see, chest-beating politicians in the aftermath will not bring any of the dead back to life, nor will all their pious, self-justifying drivel do anything to prevent the next attack.
In fact, the only time you’ll see genuine armed guards is when they’re protecting politicians and their rich friends.
That should give you a hint of how much regard they have for the rest of us!

Arm up, and never disarm, even if the politicians agree to be held to their own rules and they are denied armed security. That is the only way they can even preach their bs without being hypocrites. They’ll still be corrupt and dumb, though, and have no power over us.
AZ, I certainly agree with you….but… I keep throwing it in THEIR face: “I will disarm the day AFTER ALL security on Capitol Hill is disarmed. Capitol Police, DC police, secret Service, and ALL personal protective details.” And I’m not concerned at all about MY promise…as I’m damn sure THEY won’t do that deal, no matter what!
BBT – yep – you can bet the family farm ( if it hasn’t been taken over by the CCP or bill gates) that they will NEVER lead by example, especially when it might put them in jeopardy.
Unarmed “security” is a liberal concept that imagines nice guys never getting shot.
“unarmed security” is an oxymoron.
Politicians aren’t the only people behind armed guards. I haven’t been in a hospital for awhile and had to go through very high tech metal detectors being operated by armed guards at a Phoenix Hospital yesterday. I got a look at the surveillance screen and WOW, it picks up everything in your pockets and on your person, except the titanium in my back. It’s the future of class division. YOU don’t rate protection but doctors and politicians do.The list of protected classes will grow from this point. Every doctor office I’ve been to in the last few years has a… Read more »
When I fist heard ISIS was taking responsibility, I had some thoughts in no particular order:
Bullshit, this has CIA written all over it.
Since when has ISIS taken responsibility for an attack? They have no central command and control structure.
Since when has ISIS planned an escape route? ISIS members are proud to die for Allah so they can go fornicate their 72 virgins. Most fight until killed.
How is that John Kirby so accurately predicted the attack, right down to the venue, weeks ahead of time?
The puppet masters of Traitor Joe want WW III, prove me wrong.
Lets change it up a bit. Let’s make the word concert with unarmed guards, which is a strong word for usher, gun free school zone. There is no difference.
I am a bit confused though. Why would ISIS attack Russia? I thought they were buds?
Mabey it’s times to start playing cowboys and ISIS again.
Update after watching video. Ukraine makes more sense. Thanks Editor Riehl.
I was suckered in by the lying media in the US but I did wonder why it did not make any sense. I see now my suspicion’s were not without reason.

ISIS had nothing to do with this. They’re stupid, but not that stupid. I do feel sorry for anyone involved with this as Russia doesn’t play half measures like the US when it comes to things like this. Had 9/11 happened in Russia, they’d have erased Saudi Arabia. Let us hope that the CIA wasn’t involved in any way….
I kind of doubt that the CIA was but hey, they have killed more world leaders than I ever thought that we would ever stick our noses in.
That is the one complaint I hear most. America gets involved with other countries business and it pisses them off. It’s starting to piss me off too. IMO O’biden has no business telling Israel what it needs to do. To me the answer to the GAZA situation is your Russian resolve for 911.
Kennedy just chose Nicole Shanahan a leftist once married to Sergey Brinn one of the most evil companies in the world. She is a silicon valley lawyer and a google co-founder. She supported Butt igidge and Gascon and Soros. Supports no jail, no bail and defund the police. Member of the board of carbon royalty corp. that counts carbon credits. So for those of you thinking about voting for him, he showed his true democrap colors in who he selected for VP. A vote for this dick would be like voting for O’biden. If he becomes president his saying that… Read more »
