Are you saying that the Oath Keepers are comprised of just 10 'unarmed' people. LOL! That's a pretty stupid notion. The Oath Keepers are a large right-wing anti-government extremist group. And they're typically heavily armed.
Joshua James Statement of Offense
"3. After the Presidential Election, Joshua James, Elmer Stewart Rhodes III, and others conspired to oppose by force the lawful transfer of presidential power. Rhodes, a 55-year-old resident of Granbury, Texas, is the founder and leader of the Oath Keepers, a large but loosely organized collection of individuals, some of whom are associated with militias. James, a 33-yearold military veteran and resident of Arab, Alabama, was the regional leader in charge of the Alabama chapter of the Oath Keepers. Some members of the Oath Keepers believe that the federal government has been coopted by a cabal of elites actively trying to strip American citizens of their rights. Though the Oath Keepers will accept anyone as members, they explicitly focus on recruiting current and former military, law enforcement, and first-responder personnel. The organization’s name alludes to the oath sworn by members of the military and police to defend the Constitution “from all enemies, foreign and domestic.” On their website, the “Oath Keepers declare they will not obey unconstitutional orders.”
4. James agreed to take part in a plan developed by Rhodes
to stop the lawful transfer of presidential power by January 20, 2021, by deploying force to prevent, hinder, and delay the execution of the laws of the United States governing the transfer of presidential power. They used encrypted and private communications, equipped themselves with a variety of weapons, donnedcombat and tactical gear, and were prepared to answer Rhodes’s call to take up arms.
James and others amassed firearms on the outskirts of Washington, D.C.—some distributed across hotels and “quick reaction force” (“QRF”) teams—and planned, if called upon, to use them in support of the plan to halt the lawful transfer of presidential power. ...
10. On December 21, 2020, James messaged the “Leadership intel sharing secured” Signal group chat, “SE Region is creating a
NATIONAL CALL TO ACTION FOR DC JAN 6TH.... 4 states are mobilizing[.]” When he did not receive an immediate response, James posted, “DID NO ONE HEAR ME!!!! 3 STATES ARE MOBILIZING TO DC!!! Everyone in this channel should understand the magnitude i just sent!!” 11. On December 23, 2020, Rhodes published another open letter on the Oath Keepers website. Referencing the Certification of the Electoral College Vote scheduled to occur on January 6, 2021,
Rhodes explained that “tens of thousands of patriot Americans, both veterans and nonveterans, will already be in Washington D.C., and many of us will have our mission-critical gear stowed nearby just outside D.C.” Rhodes warned that he and others may have to “take to arms in defense of our God given liberty.” ...
16. On December 31, 2020, one individual sent a message to James:
“i have friends not far from DC with a lot of weapons and ammo if you get un trouble i ca. Coordinate help.” James responded, “That might be helpful, but we have a shitload of QRF on standby with an arsenal.”
17. On January 1, 2021, Brian Ulrich messaged James: “Hey we told to bring guns and maybe stage them in VA?? But you are showing hotels in DC for Alabama. Are we bring guns or no if so how will that work?” James responded:
“Were working on a Farm location Some are bringing long rifles some sidearms… I’m bringing sidearm.”
18. On January 4, 2021, James traveled with Ulrich, Grods, and others to the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area. James brought a semi-automatic handgun, and Ulrich, Grods, and others brought firearms, including a rifle, a shotgun, a semi-automatic handgun, and ammunition. James stored their firearms at the Virginia hotel where he, Rhodes, Minuta, and others had rooms.
19. In advance of and on January 6, 2021, James and others agreed to take part in the plan developed by Rhodes to use any means necessary, up to and including the use of force, to stop the lawful transfer of presidential power.
20. In the weeks leading up to January 6, 2021, Rhodes instructed James and other coconspirators to be prepared, if called upon, to report to the White House grounds to secure the perimeter and use lethal force if necessary against anyone who tried to remove President Trump from the White House, including the National Guard or other government actors who might be sent to remove President Trump as a result of the Presidential Election.
