The jury has reached a verdict in the trial of investigative journalist Andy Ngo v. Rose City Antifa and its alleged affiliated members, in which they found both defendants John Colin Hacker and Elizabeth Renee Richter not liable in the civil case brought against them.
Ngo filed a complaint in Portland, Oregon in 2020, claiming assault and other injuries over alleged acts of violence carried out by members of Antifa, which began in 2019. Defandants John Colin Hacker and Elizabeth Renee Richter have been accused by Senior Editor of Post Millennial Andy Ngo of assault, battery, and intentional infliction of emotional distress, which was argued before a civil jury for more than a week at the Multnomah County Courthouse.
During closing statements, defense lawyer Michelle Burrows told the jurors that not only does she self-identify as both a progressive and an “anti-fascist,” she strongly declared that, "I am Antifa" and insisted upon making herself an “I am Antifa” t-shirt to wear after the trial. Despite their significant recorded history of violence, she told the jury that Antifa's unfavorable reputation is untrue and depicted the organized militant group as activists fighting for social justice and civil rights.

Andy Ngo is a whiney homo.
Divorce? No, they shouldn’t get one square foot of the Nation. They need to be driven into the sea (either coast).
What does that have to do with this absurd jury decision.
I recommending studying the Thirty Years War and the Treaty of Westphalia.
Clemenza is a whiney homo.
how do you like it?
“Andy Ngo is a whiney homo.”
Let’s see you take on Antifa like Andy has.
Ngo is a true journalist.
While he is a liberal leaning democrat voting guy, he still does not let that color his reporting.
When I was in jr high and high school I and friends tried to determine the political bias of our teachers. Mostly we could not.
by the time my kids graduated all of those teachers were retiring and it became an obvious S#it Show.
My youngest went to college with the rainbow girls and commie teachers and it was not good for him, but even after some time in an asylum he has survived and still rejects gender dysphoria.
I thought he deserved a Pulitzer for his reporting on the riots of 2020.
Boo!
When domestic terrorists can’t get convicted for beating people, it’s time to take matters into our own hands.
Do some of you morons think we are still going to win in 2024? Do some of you still think there is a peaceful way out of this. My tagline is TRUTH. But we will not get that chance again. And a c! vi l w @r will weaken us to the point that the rest of the world will pounce and eliminate us.
Those miscreants as well.
When justice is not found with police and courts, justice will be found with We the People.
I agree.
What’s important about a likely Trump win is that it will provoke an election cancellation / annulment by the Regime.
The BoomerCons are still stuck on ‘muh Constitution, and it needs to be the Regime who pulls the plug on this farce.
But, neither the US, Canada, or probably any Western country is likely to survive intact.
Some judges need to be punished. I wish our Supreme Court had more power in that regards. Take that judge in MN who gave that officer 5 years the other day for the crime of conducting crowd control during the St. George Floyd overdose. It’s hard to to see through that sort of darkness. How could he ever actually believe that sentence a just one? Wish we could hang his sort. (legally of course)
Ha.
One can wish it was going to be easy and God would do for us what we must do for Him and ourselves. It’s stand up time from now to the end. If we fail it isn’t going to be pretty. Antifa, BLM, environazis, the alphabet soup, Communists, Leftists, liberal liars, corrupt politicians, corrupt City County and State officials elected and otherwise, Corrupt Judges, corruption of any kind needs to be removed from the presence of “We the People” and the God that created us to stand up for what’s right, no excuses.
“The Law” belongs to We the People, not to the government. We the People have merely delegated it to the government; that’s the nature of a Republic.
When the government fails to do its job, We the People will take The Law BACK into our hands ... and it won’t be pretty.
I’m not advocating violence. I’m not advocating anything at all.
I’m observing a historical fact of human nature.
Wonder if the judge himself may have been threatened.
Humm. The ammo box.
Yep.
