Deacons for Defense (2005)

Deacons for Defense is a 2005 Showtime movie that was inspired by a true story of a group of African American citizens of Bogalusa, Louisiana, who took up arms to protect themselves from the KKK and the local law. The film stars Forest Whitaker, Jonathan Silverman and Ossie Davis and was directed by Bill Duke.

Notice the trigger discipline. Seems appropriate since they are almost all veterans.

M60

Another weapon they pick up from the longshoremen, but never use, is a M60 machine gun.
