Toledo resident Devon Padua confronts Guardian Angels Aaron Brilbeck and Terry Wertz.
Some residents in the North End district of Toledo, Ohio, still shaken from October 2005 riots sparked by a neo-nazi rally, believe street patrols by the vigilante group Guardian Angels are actually those of Nazis, reports The Toldeo Blade.
“I thought they was Nazis too at first! I seen the red and the white,” said Toledo resident Devin Padua, upon seeing columns of the group marching through his neighborhood clad in their trademark militaristic red berets and Masonic-logo jacket. “I sees them and I ask and they’re like, ‘No, we’re not Nazis,’” Padua yelled into the cell phone he was carrying at the time. “I don’t know what they are or who they are.”
Toledo chapter leader Terry Wertz assured Padua that the Angels were “crime fighters” and not out to ethnically cleanse the neighborhood. The Toledo chapter of the Guardian Angels have seen a growth in new members since recent city budget cuts have forced a reduction in police officers.
The vigilante group has also been confused for the drug-dealing biker gang Hell’s Angels, and for an axillary fire department patrol.

The GA are based on Hitler’s SA. Same philosophy, follow their furher, Sliwa. Strut around in a clown oufit, brag about ridding the streets of criminals, get seen on tv. Furher Sliwa takes worthless nothings, pumps up their low egos and they are his mindless slaves. Yes, they can be mistaken for Nazis, or is it really a mistake?
