A "wall of moms" gathers to confront federal officers on Sunday, July 19, 2020 in downtown Portland:
-------------------------------------------
A wall of "Portland Moms" shields rioters from Federal forces in downtown Portland:
President Donald Trump deployed federal police to Portland to quell six weeks of protests. He has achieved the opposite effect.
The crowds gathering outside downtown courthouses on July 18 and 19 were as large as any Portland has seen in the past month. The crowd also appeared significantly older than at any previous demonstration.
That's in no small part because reports of aggressive tactics by federal officersincluding shooting a protester in the face with a munition, detaining people in rental vans, and tear gassing a county commissionerhave galvanized residents of this city to confront what they see as a military occupation.
Edie, a Portland mother expecting a grandchild, said the sight of federal police using tear gas on moms July 18 outraged her. (She declined to give her last name.)
"The wall of moms were in white yesterday, and they were tear gassed and shoved," she said. "So we came in yellow today. and we're alongside the fence telling them: 'Feds go home, the moms are here.'
Edie continued: "The more the police use war crimes, crimes against humanity, anti-democratic [actions], having police take over the three branches of governmentlegislative, executive and judicialand prevent the freedom of press, that makes people who have never come out before get angry. We moms say, 'You're not gonna hurt our kids.'"
"Feds have succeeded in turning #portlandprotests mainstream. a friend from my daughter's school cohort facebooked about joining the "wall of moms" tonight", writes Portland based writer Tim Dickinson.
Coordinated part of the attack. Not spontaneous. The article is full of propaganda.
In other news, gang bangers are galvanized against the police for breaking up their drug, prostitution, theft, and extortion operations. News at 10. Orange man bad. Law and order rayciss.
I say just bring in the scoops and arrest the whole bunch of them. Diesel therapy them all to Oklahoma and let them stand trial there.
"This is not up for debate."
Liberals love to control the language (by redefining words) and debate (by pronouncing issues 'settled').
We can't give them the win like that.
Why is this in the Activism sidebar?
What belongs in the Activism sidebar? Where are the rules?
Thx
How are these wymyn any different than the Jihadist mothers celebrating their own children as suicide bombers? These b!tche$ are celebrating their own children destroying their own nation. self loathing is a repugnant thing to see.
Then pull out, completely. Remove every federal entity from that city and cut funding to it. Those pukes stand with ANTIFA, so expend no further effort to stop the rioting. Piss on the whole works.
OREGON PING
Please send me your name by FReepmail if you want to be on this list.
Awwwww, Klantifa had to call their mommies to come help them. How sad.
Looks like its working. Either their mommies prevent them from engaging in violence OR the feds kick their asses again.
Works for me.
Up here in Canada, a couple moved from Portland to where I live, and at our bible study, commented how they needed to “convert” their gun toting conservative father.
Funny thing is the cost of living was so terrible where I live they had to return to Portland as they couldn’t afford to live here.
The men are all at home wearing their pink pussy hat.
Crack some skulls.
L
Yeah?
Well, shoot them too.
Trump keeps it up and hell lose Oregon. /s
Good. Crush them all. Every last one of them.
Mothers?
Those ‘women’ look like 60’s hippies grand-marms. Time to start crackin’ some skulls and haulin’ them in.
I wonder how the ass hats 🧢 would react, if they were told that all food deliveries will stop, and especially, no more toilet paper. 😁
Convert their gun toting conservative father???
They didn’t mean “convert” as in make him a Christian. I guess that wasn’t clear. They clearly meant to convert him from his second amendment beliefs and being so old school.
