Red River Resistance

History
The Red River Resistance was more than a mob - it was a movement which influenced hundreds and men and women to fight for a common cause. It all began in 1867 when the land surrounding the Hudson Bay in Canada was transferred from the British Hudson Bay Company to the Canadian government. Caught in the middle were the people of the Red River settlement, who consisted of native Americans, European settlers and the mixed descent Métis. Their fears of losing their land and cultural identity to Canadian infiltration fell on deaf ears. Realising that neither the Canadians nor the British were truly interested in their well-being, the people of the Red River took up arms, defied the Canadian authority and demanded their rights. Louis Riel is credited as being the founder and driving force behind the movement. Elected thrice into the House of Commons, he remained a fugitive and never assumed his seat. He decided that he would rather fight beside his brethren rather than drink tea at parliament. Although the rebellion didn't last long, it is celebrated as a turning point in the history of aboriginal peoples of Canada.

Forty years later, in Western America the triple-R was reborn. This time the name was used for a less noble cause - it was adopted by a band of outlaws. They were of various ethnicities and could trace their roots to the Red River people. With the cost of living and taxation rate ridiculously high, these men and women decided that they could no way live a dignified life without stealing. Their crimes ranged from stealing candy from babies to bank robberies. While not committing any felony, they play table tennis.

The Red River Rebellion in the old west was founded by Emci McEmcee, a strong believer of Louis Riel's ideologies. Although known to many as a deranged maniac, he was a noble outlaw. He was fondly called 320 by his associates - which was the amount of criminals, bandits and corrupt lawmen combined that he had taken down in table tennis. He had also ruthlessly eliminated scores of men, yet sparing women and children. It is unclear as to when it all began, but McEmcee took many townsfolk by his side, training them to be outlaws, bandits, survivalists, hunters, thieves, sharpshooters and all other kind of scum unknown to mankind. With its strength rapidly increasing, the RRR was soon a force to be reckoned with. It is rumoured that the twenty-first century corporate giant SRS Incorporated is run by descendants of these bandits, but that's a story for another day.
