A member from the Guardian Angels’ Los Angeles franchise was severely beaten last week, raising questions on what role the street vigilante group plays and whether they can are an effective “crime fighting” group.
During an August 8 street patrol, Guardian Angel member Alex “Gemini” Makarczyk and 9 other Angels tried to stop a female club goer from being sexually assaulted. A group of 25 men stepped in to help the alleged rapist, beating Makarczyk senseless.
Makarczyk and two other Angels were sent to Cedar Siani hospital. Makarczyk was sent to ICU and the other Angels have been treated and released.
Los Angeles GA franchise leader Adam Kratt disputed the number of Angels involved in the altercation. “The Guardian Angels were prepared,” Kratt said. “There? were seven (7) of us and as you stated twenty five (25) of them [....] We were out numbered. We went in to protect two (2) people who were being physically attacked. We were there to protect the community.”
At least one of the gang of 25 was arrested.

Not to worry, old chap. Curtis has provided you with top-notch health insurance.
Slammin’ and jammin’.
This is the REAL GA exposed ! Not that edited propaganda show played on the Biography channel! A & E should be ashamed that it broadcast such garbage. Looks like the police have to “assist the GA” instead of the other way around! Wise up GA stooges! When you leader barks orders to you over his cellphone from his comfy million dollar condo while your out in the cold rain getting your heads busted open maybe you will come to your senses about being used by this shyster! Losing your life so Curtis Sliwa can lead a comfortable life ain’t all that bad now boo hoo hoo!!!
Looks like being a Guardian Angel has the same benefit package as a gang banger. Which brings up the question , is there a difference ? They seem more like psychopathic pyromaniac volunteer fireman. Of which there are many , just look who the arsonist of coatesville, pa. The two groups have much in common.
Dey knowed what dey wuz gettin’ into befaw dey signed the contract. Hey,Frank,: Don’t mess up my schtick. I still wants tu git duh high speakin’ fees.
Hey GA stooges now you know what ’s like like to “suck concrete” as your glorious leader would say!!! LOL!!!!
These morons who have gotten the crap kicked out of them should sue this media shyster and degenerate liar! He won’t pay out of his millions for their hospital care, as I predicted! You can’t sign a release giving up your well being and life. He’s conned the losers and wanna be’s who’ve swallowed the line of bullshit that his bag of bullshit with a beret has been giving them. And what about how they’re “trained” in self defence? It’s all a conjob concocted by a media shyster and degenerate liar! Sue him for the millions and his million and a half dollar condo! Get wise assholes, he’s pimping off your lives!
contact A&E BROADCASTING AND TELL THEM THAT YOU DON’T WANT THIS BAG OF BULLSHIT WITH A BERET TO HAVE A SHOW! Quit insulting our intelligence! It’s all a scam!
I don’t know what you have against Sliwa, but seriously, you’re bagging on seven citizens who went to help a woman being sexually assaulted? Would you guys be man enough to try to save her? Angels don’t need to provide health insurance, it’s called VOLUNTEER! Most members work full time jobs and already have health insurance. Do you get health insurance when you volunteer? Do you guys even volunteer at all??? I don’t care if you bag on Sliwa for whatever personal reasons, but lay off the citizens. They don’t follow Sliwa, they follow the cause and the principles. Just because Obama is president, does that make you a supporter of Obama?
@draco:
You’re a damn fool to put your life at risk for the profit of some con man – and that’s exactly what you’re doing when you volunteer for Curtis Sliwa’s group.
Sliwa sits in his multi-million-dollar, Upper East Side condo and dines at luxury events with Mayor Bloomberg while you schmucks are busting your humps for nothing – you even have to pay for your own berets and t-shirts! And when you get sent to the hospital like these guys, the ICU no less, you are S.O.L. – the burden is on YOU to pay for your medical expenses and rehabilitation.
When you volunteer for the military, the US gvt. pays for your medical, room & board, etc. – and even pays YOU for volunteering!
The LEAST that dirtbag Sliwa can do is to pay for your hospital bills if you get injured in the line of duty – especially since he’s raking in the dough with TV shows, a radio show, etc, etc!
@ draco:
And you’re a damn fool if you think anyone here is an Obama supporter!
Saying you “volunteer” for the military is like saying you volunteer to go to work every day. Give me a break, the military pays you. Who cares is Sliwa is a millionaire, so are a few Angels who made their money through their own work. Nobody puts their life at risk for Sliwa. They put their lives at risk for people on the streets like that sexual assault victim. Once again, WHAT THE F WOULD YOU DO RUN LIKE A COWARD???? You guys sound like Obama insinuating that volunteer organizations be required to provide health care you liberal schmucks. Volunteering is the cornerstone of conservative principles and getting government out of our lives. If you’re the type of conservative to sit at home doing nothing to help your community and just typing cr** on the Internet, then you’re no better than a liberal f***.
@Draco the Asshole
Conservatives say that private organizations should provide health coverage to their employees. Sliwa is your employer and must provide you health care! Meanwhile, this asshole Sliwa is raking in the bucks with TV and radio shows, and donations made for the work that YOU do! Perhaps you get a cut of those donations, and that’s why you defend him so much!
Of course Draco is getting a cut of the action. Part of it is skimmed off and kicked upstairs to Sliwa. How else do you think he supports his expensive lifestyle? Notice that this moron uses the talking point that Sliwa sends out to them when confronted with the truth: “your hatred of Sliwa”. It is done to divert the arguments. Fact is, they are begging for money for this asshole who got the crap kicked out of himself because he’s a stooge of Sliwa. Notice that they never tell you who the number two man is in the cult. As for the ignoramus Draco who said, volunteers don’t get paid. Well, name me a “volunteer” like Sliwa who’s made millions off of volunteer work? Ans: NONE! If he was, he’d be paying for this jerkoff in the hospital who thought that Sliwa was telling him the truth, instead of what we know are bullshit stories. They needed the cops to HELP THEM, not the other way around! They are bunch of stupid clods who are playing “cops and robbers” instead of growing up. And this is what they get for shilling for Sliwa. And moron, don’t question others what they would have done, or have done in this situation. They don’t need to strut around like a bunch of beret wearing morons who desperately need attention to fill their empty lives. How much does your furher get for his speaking tours? How come the money isn’t sent into a GA fund? How come he charges 5grand for a phony staged “underbelly tour” of the subway? I believe that this may be Sliwa himself responding under an assumed name. Hey, Sliwa stooge, “Draco”, come on TRP, phone in, if you’ve got the guts!
Hey, Draco, will you run like a coward, or come on TRP to face the facts that the GA is nothing more than a scam run by a media shyster and degenerate liar! Your “citizen’s arrest” bullshit is just that, bullshit! Put your hands on the wrong person and you’ll get sued for assault and battery. You are so dumb that you signed away your life, which is illegal, moron! And don’t run the phony, “conservative principles” bullshit. Your furher has changed sides more times than France! He’s a media shyster and con artist, who is using assholes like you to make him millions! You, admit that the GA is a paramilitary org. which is like any cult. You’d have made Jim Jones proud! Hurry up,, the Kool Aid is getting warm!
Draco is such a moron he won’t commment on the fact that when Sliwa’s “poll” to see who liked his bullshit pilot on A&E was more didn’t like it than did, he pulled the poll! Hey, moron, you don’t get it, do you? He is a media shyster and degenerate liar who manipulates the media so jerks like you who aren’t too bright fall for his bullshit! He ran when he saw people saw through this fraud!
The lady doth protest too much. Are you guys secretly in love with Sliwa? You guys spread more news about him (albeit negative) than any other news media source. If bad publicity is good publicity, you guys are doing him a favor. Perhaps you guys should let it be known that you are in radio competition with Sliwa and polarizing youself with Sliwa is some weird way to promote your show? Anyhow, enjoy sparring with you guys, insults and all. We all need to get a life.
Our job is to report the truth. I see Sliwa constantly on tv, hear him on radio, or read about him in the newspaper. So I can’t get away from him, and am tired of this degenerate liar and media shyster using the ignorant to make millions, while cops risk their lives for a lousy paycheck, and don’t live in million dollar condos! If you truly believe in justice, then how can you follow someone who’s made millions off of lying, and faking crime reports which is a felony? He uses fools like you, who want to do something positive, and will leave you s.o.l. like this kid in the hospital. Now, how much are you kicking back to him on the donations collected? How come he hasn’t given a nickel of his millions to this victim of his bullshit for his hospital stay? Is that dedication, or just, “I used you moron, now fend for yourself as I’ll find another one to use”! My advice to you: go to school and take up an area of law enforcement if that is what you really want to be in, instead of being a clown for media shyster and degenerate liar Sliwa. Believe me, one day you’ll thank me when you realize that he has whored you out so he can make a buck off of your ass!
the street level Ga’s really are trying to help, are they not? It’s Sliwa you have problem with, correct? Takes some nads to wade into a crowd of 25 thugs.
