About that so-called ‘security guard’ who gunned down a Trump supporter in Denver
By Monica Showalter
Was a local Denver television station hiring violent Antifa supporters to act as their personal security guards?
That’s what it’s starting to look like, given that Saturday, an apparent radical leftist was hired as a ‘security guard’ by local news station, who then got into a shouting altercation with an anti-communist group member, pulled out a gun, and opened fire on Lee Keltner, shooting him dead. It happened at dueling rallies in Denver’s civic center between Black Lives Matter/Antifa/Communist Party USA supporters, and . . . “Patriot Muster.”
Much of the focus now is on who was to blame, or whether the ‘security guard’ was somehow provoked.
But how the heck did this guy have a role as a security guard for newsmen covering protestors? . . . he acted as the ‘security guard’ for newsmen covering the yelling and screaming rallies. However, he had no security certification, as required by law. He was just a scruffy character with an Occupy! Denver past with a gun.
Was he really a security guard, or was he a leftist protestor . . .
. . . Red State has the real scoop on all the unanswered questions as to how this guy found himself in the pay of the local news station and
maybe others.
First, Dolloff was not a licensed security guard. The City of Denver has a municipal ordinance requiring anyone employed as a “security guard” to possess a city license authorizing the person to work in that capacity inside Denver city limits. To get the license the applicant must complete the specified training. If the applicant is to be armed as a security guard, he must undergo some additional training, and pass a firearms proficiency course. If the security guard is going to work in a “plain clothes” capacity — as Dolloff was — he must undergo even more training before getting the license. An official for the City of Denver licensing department . . . they have no application or file for anyone named Matthew Dolloff as holding the necessary license issued by the City of Denver.
Second, Dolloff didn’t work for Pinkerton as claimed by “9News”, the NBC affiliate station in Denver who said they hired him to be security for their news crew at the protest. … Pinkerton on Sunday said they did not employ Dolloff, but that he worked for a contractor. . . 9News now says they have no idea who he worked for . . .
