Oregon State Police on Thursday pulled out the approximately 100 troopers helping both federal officers and Portland police in responding to nightly protests in the city that have often ended in confrontations with demonstrators and arrests.

State police committed to two weeks “and that two weeks ended today,” said spokesman Capt. Timothy R. Fox.

“We’re in a county that’s not going to prosecute this criminal behavior,” Fox added.

I believe the spokesman insinuated their police efforts would be better spent in a county that prosecuted criminal behavior.

“Insane. They are allowing their city to be destroyed by miscreants.”
*******************************************************
The destruction is on the city’s “leadership”. The state police have better things to do other than participate in the enabling of the destroyers.

Sounds like all concerned have thrown up their hands. Portland isn’t worth spilling American blood.

Let these city “leaders” rot in their own excrement. The real losers are the good people that cannot afford to move away from the scum that is left from this insane activity.

They worded it like this though:

"This decision was based on the fact that our two week commitment ended last night"

So, now that the Feds have left, and the State police have left, looks like the Alamo is about to get overrun again.

Between the riots and the virus they are trying to make it impossible for in person voting. A restriction on live voting is whats going to kill us!

The consequences of this action connot be hidden or concealed.Bland and unconcerned suburbanites and even some city dwellers will get to see this madness and savagery on a regular basis and in some cases, up close and personal. Millions more red pilled.

Watch these mayors and city councils of the hellscapes they created go after the suburbs next. Admin wants the taxes. Savages want the free merch.

There is only one way to stop this. The alternatives are unthinkable.
