PORTLAND, Ore. – Detectives on Thursday arrested two men accused of damaging several Northwest Portland businesses during a post-election protest that devolved into a riot last November.

Protesters marched through the streets of Portland for five straight nights in opposition to the election of Donald Trump. Several people damaged cars and businesses in Portland's Pearl District.

Investigators identified 19-year-old Elijah K. Gerard and 19-year-old David Deron Lewis Jr. as suspects after the two men were seen in photos and videos damaging property.

Gerard damaged a Jeep and assaulted the driver, police said. He’s also accused of damaging Seres Restaurant and Bar, Chase Bank and Anderson Construction during the riot.

Gerard faces charges of riot (two counts), fourth-degree assault, unlawful entry into a vehicle and criminal mischief (three counts).

Lewis damaged a Starbucks, Federal Express and Urban Pantry, police said. He faces charges of riot, criminal mischief (three counts) and failure to appear in court. He had two outstanding warrants for criminal trespass.

They should all be fully interrogated and debriefed as to their sponsors, goals, and cell makeup, then sent off to the great beyond after dancing the hempen jig.

“Of course that is what they look like. They always do, but it is discriminatory to profile.”

That’s one of the dumber things I’ve read on FR.
There are reams of evidence and photos of white, middle class punks rioting, looting, assaulting, screaming profanities.

In Oregon, Riot and Fourth Degree Assault are Class C felonies - up to 5 years as well fines up to $125,000; unlawful entry into a motor vehicle is a Class A misdemeanor, up to one year incarceration and up to $6250 in fines; Criminal Mischief, up to 30 days in jail and a fine of $1250; Failure to appear in court. If original charge was a felony it is Class C felony; If original charge was a misdemeanor, it is a Class A misdemeanor.

Max out all the penalties and salt away these little sweethearts for years.
