Police say a right-wing Proud Boys rally and counter-protests in Portland, Oregon, have largely dispersed without serious violence, though they are investigating an assault after one person who was documenting the event was pushed to the ground and kicked in the face.
About 1,000 people gathered at the Proud Boys rally in Delta Park on Saturday, while a group of 500 left-wing counter-protesters massed at nearby Peninsula Park, leading to fears of clashes.
Ahead of the right-wing rally, which organizers said was to support President Donald Trump and 'to end domestic terrorism', Oregon Governor Kate Brown declared a state of emergency and Mayor Ted Wheeler said it poses the 'greatest threat we've faced so far' amid fears of clashes with left-wing protesters.

Brown and Wheeler turn out to be the “biggest threats” that Portland/Oregon have faced this century. Two pyschos in positions of power letting the commies and black extremists plus rich white lunatics burn down Portland.
Instead of them just wearing face masks, they should be made to wear the ones made of the rioters’ favorite weapon, quick-drying cement.
Condom bombs? Now that could be a problem.
Yikes.
lol leave it to Oregon to declare a state of emergency because a peaceful group of pro trump supporters throw an ANTI DOMESTIC TERRORISM rally.
Along with the accomplices of the Communists- The Main stream Media- who stir up maximum animosity, by deliberately lying to the people, either through distortion of facts, or outright suppression of truth.
there are a number of very lengthy youtube videos of the London protest online - many hours each. people are commenting that it was totally peaceful until police became aggressive. some say there were 30,000 protesters:
VIDEO: 1m40s: 27 Sept: Ruptly TV: UK: Bloodied heads and arrests at anti-lockdown rally in London as scuffles erupt
Anti-lockdown protesters scuffled with police in London’s Trafalgar Square on Saturday, resulting in injured people from both sides and several arrests.
Tempers flared as the protesters shouted at the police, who responded by pulling out truncheons and pushing the feisty crowd to retreat. At least two protesters could be seen with blood on their faces, while at least one police officer was taken away with a bandaged head.

Total BS article.
best video is the third down, 3m38s, immediately above David Icke pic, titled “Anti-lock protestors violently clash with police in London.
should be titled “Police march on totally peaceful protest, order people to leave”.
so different to how the London police allowed BLM and the earlier Extinction Rebellion protests, which disrupted people from going about their business for hours.
I think they were setting the stage for the Proud Boys to prop up their delusional position that right wing extremism is the cause of unrest in Portland.
Leftist democrats in government at all levels are the enemy, folks. They trample all over your rights outlined in the US Constitution and face no punishment for doing so.
JoMa
These ‘Proud Boys’ are a truly racist organization... Trump should condemn them and point them out as the extremist they are. In fact I wouldn’t be surprised to find out that the Democrats are funding them to counter their own extremist BLM and Antifa movements that are dragging the Democrats down to the sewer.
Yes. And it is total nonsense. That effort started under Obozo.
Dont underestimate the commitment to the delusion. A lot of people buy into it. A video of Proud Boys chasing down an antifag and bitch-slapping them around would get a lot of play.
“These Proud Boys are a truly racist organization...”
Which is odd because they have a large Hispanic contingent that seems to be growing
How so?
Yes, and they must really be some kind of stupid.
I think the commies want to yell at PBs but don’t want to tangle physically with them. I watched these fellows on a video walking through a bunch of BlackMasks swinging clubs and skateboards at them and the PB knocking them down with single punches to the jaw one after another. Some broken jaws there and teeth on the street.
Incurious, ill-informed...I think it gets back to liberalism being a mental disorder. They need the things that they believe to be validated. The likes of Ted Wheeler and Kate Brown know that, and are happy to oblige. You can see how dangerous they are.
Honestly in Portland, I haven't seen many black folks rioted in the videos I've seen. I'm sure there's a couple but it seems mostly ANTIFA to me.
