Our Humble Story
During the spring and summer of the Year 2020, protests were staged in response
to the death of a black man while in Police custody. Initially, the protests were peaceful
demonstrations. However, as the days progressed, leaders of the protest movement became more radical and
were influenced by outside Marxist and Anarchist Groups. Eventually, the peaceful protests became
full fledged anarchy with rioting and looting in dozens of American cities. In some
of the major cities, police were overwhelmed or made to “stand down” by local politicians.
The net result was that sections of many cities were looted and burned with many local
small businesses destroyed ... never to rebuild.
As rioting became more prevalent, with a corresponding absence of
Police presence, the rioters became more aggresive. They turned their attention to
defacing/destroying historical landmarks. These included statues and monuments of
George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln and many others. Some politicians silently
stood by and allowed this to happen, not wanting to antagonize the rioters further.

This demonstrated weakness by the political elite further emboldened the rioters
causing a breakdown of civil society in some areas. Individual homeowners,
small businesses and neighborhood community groups were forced to arm themselves to defend
their own property when 911 calls to the Police would go unfilled.
There were many instances
of heroism where individuals defended their businesses and homes from the rioters and
looters. Many law abiding citizens wanted “something to be done” but did not have the
resources to pull large groups of “like minded” people together. The big Social Media
Platforms seemed to exercise “bias” in support of the protesters and would apply censorship
to dissenting views. An alternative was needed.
Out of this chaos, “BroomsMen” was born.
The Founder recognized that Patriots needed a better way to organize
people and resources, to support Law Enforcement, protect our homes and businesses, protect
our historical heritage and put pressure on politicians and companies that “are part of the problem”.
BroomsMen Name & Logo
The role of a BroomsMen is to help “clean up” some of the
issues facing American society. Therefore, we use the “Broom” as our symbol.
Through a campaign of education,
political pressure and direct “in your face” public demonstrations
we can create a nationwide movement that will attract media exposure to the
issues and help foster a dialog to arrive at solutions that benefit
the American People.
In addition to using the “Broom” as our symbol, as a practical matter,
it is also a multi-purpose tool that can be used during EVENTS. It can be used as a
broom to help local residents “sweep and clean up” after riots and looting. It can
also be used to hold Signs, Banners or arranged in a Phalanx Formation to
protect statues and monuments. Can you picture 5,000 BroomsMen all showing up
with their “brooms” to protect a statue of George Washington? That is a lot of
potential for cleaning things up.
