There are 2 types of white people: White people who form the frontline to prevent police brutality… and white people who stand on the sideline watching black people get killed

Eliot has been a leftist activist in the Pacific Northwest and proponent of armed self-defense since the 1990s.
He said his philosophy is informed by his early experience as an activist in Seattle.
“It was just sort of the standard procedure that you should know about labor history, you should know about working-class issues,” he said. “And it would be expected that you would also know how to use a rifle.”
Eliot said spontaneous violence is a serious concern at demonstrations like the Women’s March. He pointed to the white supremacist who stabbed two men on a Portland train in 2017 and the neo-Nazi who killed someone when he drove his car into a crowd of protesters in Charlottesville.
