The Obama White House won’t do it, so they say they’ll do it themselves.

John Harrington, founder of Shield Tactical, is leading the charge to release Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi from a Mexican prison.

Sgt. Tahmooressi is currently imprisoned south of the border, charged with weapons trafficking by Mexican officials for accidentally entering that country with three of his registered firearms.

Harrington, who is not an American military veteran, says that “he still cares” how our vets are treated.

“I started last Thursday, to organize the ride on the border to demand the release of Sgt. Tahmooressi. Somebody has to stand up for these guys,” Harrighton said. “It’s time we start fighting liars with fires. And that’s what we’re doing.”

It has now been nearly three months since the US Marine was arrested. The Obama administration has been relatively silent. A White House petition designed to force Team Obam to respond to Sgt. Tahmooressi’s situation has garnered over 100,000 signature and has been largely ignored.

“Obama said he doesn’t leave anyone behind,” Harringhton continued. “He doesn’t leave traitors behind.” But the President “left four behind in Benghazi and he’s leaving our man behind here.”
