problem is that the people who will be hired to fill their positions will be heavily minority, even though there are few blacks in Portland, the leftists will see to it that the number of black cops is proportionally much much larger than their actual presence in the city....

funny how that works...

but no one talks about the over presence of blacks in certain areas...far above 13%....govt jobs, military, entertainment of all stripes....and lets not forget the professional sport leagues...

in my area, there is probably less than 4% black population and yet we now have TWO radio stations devoted to them exclusively...

clearly if there were consequences to their actions and they knew they had to go to prison for at least 18 months then they would not be turning up to riot. If they knew they would become bubba’s bit## in prison do you honestly think they think they would turn up to riot?

Putting your life on the line every day with no chance to defend yourself is no way to live your life. Take the retirement , leave your politics behind and move to a sane state.

Isn’t it amazing how liberals are so surprised when their stupidity backfires on them?

Did a search with your 1st sentence - “authorized 1,001 sworn police officers”
Entry wages are $69+K

Get real, we can’t ever keep convicted lowlife scum behind bars. Where do you think all these people are going to prison?

Memphis is that way, how they kept the protests peaceful is beyond me. Normal is like Portland. Wasn’t perfect, but no one burned the city, they control.

It is real and if they are held responsible then they would not do this crap. It worked in the UK when there were fights at all soccer games and riots. A law was passed that if you get caught fighting at a game you face an instant 5 years prison. Guess what it stopped.

Time to hold them responsible instead of just throwing your arms up with no solutions.

“Portland policemen should be eternally ashamed of themselves. They are not police.”

Easy to say when you are pounding your keyboard on FR. But, if you were a beat cop or riot cop in Portland, what would you do? You go crack heads or shoot them, you’d be in prison for 20 years. Your hands are tied by your superiors and that backs upstream to the mayor and city council. All along that chain, if you buck your superiors you are fired (at best) or imprisoned (at worst).

Honestly, your only alternative is to leave the force.

Slowly, pro-police PACs and support groups are emerging. I read of a LEO PAC the other day. But they are slow organizing (within the constraints of the law, unlike BLM and antifa) and will be slow to effect real change (again, compare the unlawful antifa / marxist crap).

So, what would you do? Crack heads and possibly face 20 years in prison? Keep your head down, follow orders, and collect your paycheck? Or quit or retire?

I’m with you, I’d like too, but half the country won’t allow it.

Here's what you said...

Portland policemen should be eternally ashamed of themselves. They are not police. Take your pensions losers at least you are sucking taxpayer money from filthy democrats which is about your only worthwhile accomplishment.

Did you forget you said that?

And then you said this to my question,

Toward the end a guy helps pin down one of the scum with a flag pole. I fantasized a boar spear!

What the hell????

That was in response to the twitter video. Did I post on wrong thread?
