Vigilante Oregon homeowners are threatening to shoot and kill looters who try to take advantage of wildfire evacuations, according to a series of street signs.
“You loot, we shoot,” read several of a series of large hand-painted signs caught by KPTV journalist Devin Eskew as he covers the devastation.
“We won’t call your family. Your body will never be found!! Bang bang!” reads another sign, with many warning that the homeowners have stayed behind in areas that have seen mass evacuations.

For your interest.
watch your posts
you’ll be warned for talking like this
Why warn them?
Are peaceful protests OK?
When did shooting looters stop being a thing? A couple of months ago because some felonious black guy got shot by cops somewhere in the US?
As far as I know, hasn’t there always been approval of deadly force used against looters?
A couple of them heading to the ER just might stop all that.
I love it! The people of New Orleans did the same thing after Katrina hit.
Mostly non-thieving looting?
Taking of property=reparations so it’s approved activity now.
Yes, there has. Shooting looters has been an accepted precedent. Even SF shot looters in the 1906 earthquake.
“Vigilante Oregon homeowners are threatening to shoot and kill looters...”
How is defending your property “vigilante”?
Thanks, I thought so. But of course Democrat cities don’t respect the lives of those poor people being looted.
You Loot! We Shoot!
There is nothing vigilante about this. Home owners have a right to protect their property.
Excellent question!
Even SF shot looters in the 1906 earthquake.
There is a very interesting film shot just a few days before the earthquake/fire. It was shot on a cable car going down Market Street to the Embarcadero. At the very end, as the car is being turned on a turntable to go back up Market Street, the camera pans across the face of an old man with a beard. He could have been a part of the Gold Rush. S.F. wasn’t all that old in 1906.
Somehow this story has inspired me to listen to “Country Boy Can Survive” by Hank Williams Jr and “An American Trilogy” by Elvis Presley.
Americans will not stay silent much longer.
