Portland Antifa DECLARES WAR on U.S. Military — Calls for Mass LASER Attack on Helicopters Over Portland ICE Facility This Saturday, October 11th
Gateway Pundit ^ | October 09, 2025 | Jim Hᴏft

Posted on 10/10/2025 6:12:31 AM PDT by Red Badger

The radical Antifa militants infesting Portland have issued a brazen call to arms: a coordinated “laser party” aimed at blinding and potentially crashing U.S. military helicopters patrolling the skies over the city’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility.

Independent journalist Andy Ngo reported the blog’s announcement and said organizers urged participants to converge at different vantage points across the city and “unleash your beam at the cop copter.”

According to the announcement:

YOU’RE INVITED: LASER TAG!

Every night for weeks we are forced to listen to the threatening rhythm of helicopter blades as the federal regime spies on us. The only limit power knows is our refusal to submit.

This Saturday, October 11th, at 9pm you are invited to fight back. All you need is a laser. Leave home – they can see where the laser is coming from. Go to a park, a field, or some other public place, and once the clock strikes 9 unleash your beam at the cop copter. Mask up. Coordinate with friends to throw a laser party!

Let’s take back the night together! It won’t take many of us to ground the helicopters!

Let’s take back the night together! It won’t take many of us to ground the helicopters!

The spread of accessible acts of resistance, scattered around the city, can cause significant disruption while being difficult (if not outright impossible) to control. Actions that aim at destroying the capacity of our enemies to enforce control in simple and concrete ways can make more daring actions possible.

The Portland Police also use aerial surveillance to target protests and usually have one of their Cessna spy planes in the sky. In 2020 and 2021, PPB used the plane to target specific protesters for arrest. Let’s blind all the eyes in the sky!

During the uprising in Chile in 2019, lasers were used to take down a police drone. It is unlikely that a single laser would have much effect, but many working together can clearly blind cameras and sensors or even force the drone down to earth entirely.

Lasers have the clear downside of being easily traced back to their source, especially from the air. If enough lasers are pointed at the aircraft, we think it will not be able to safely stay in the air for long enough to continue to pinpoint the source for law enforcement, and numbers will make it difficult to focus on a single person. Be ready to dispose of the laser if you need to – wear gloves and clean it with alcohol in case you have to toss it in a hurry. Consider taking precautions to keep DNA off of it as well.

Besides, lasers just look cool!

Last month, the FBI arrested four illegal aliens hiding out in a Portland residence after one of the subjects in the home aimed a laser at a Border Patrol helicopter on Saturday night.

The Feds obtained a search warrant on a home associated with a subject who pointed a laser at a CBP helicopter and other aircraft.

It turns out that four illegals were holed up in the residence, so the Feds took all of them into custody.

“FBI Portland just took down a residence of a suspect who allegedly targeted CBP officers – all four individuals located in the house are in the U.S. illegally and now in custody,” FBI Director Kash Patel said.

“Come after law enforcement officers and this FBI will put you away,” he added.

On the other thread I posted about AI drones and sniper helo drones could solve the problem. Looks like someone made a short movie about the logical conclusion 3 grams of RDX is enough to kill a human drones will eventually and already are bug sized DARPA has been messing with bug sized drones for years.

This is how you wipes out pantiefa.

It’s not far future tech this tech exists all but the high density power sources lithium ion is not dense enough but aluminum graphene is and guess who gets first dibs and is in active development of those cells yeah darpa. The chips,motors and cameras plus AI algorithms all are in existence today at bug size. Dropped by the thousands from UAV well outside small arms range nothing is stopping a swarm of bug sized killer drones.

As an interesting aside, ICE officers on the Portland federal Building roof have pointing out the terrorists on the ground for arrest with a green laser. They can observe offenders that can quickly become lost in the chaos below

Imagine tens of thousands of these being dropped with 12 mega pixel camera’s they can pick out individual humans from there max range of 2km as it gets closer face recognition kicks in or multispectral light printing if they are wearing a mask. These are not that fast only 10mph they are designed to hover and give intel but the size is the point 70 grams and smaller than palm size. A better design would be a tail pusher with counter rotating blades it could hover but also tip over and go head long forwards at 100+ mph in that orientation crash...boom ...splat.

Slightly larger is the pistol packing drone Sig says the recoil has negligible effect on the drone. 9mm has a 150 meter or so effective range. Adding in SMASH Dragon AI tracking, and ballistic prediction software would make first shot hits 90% plus the system computes hundreds of times per second the IIP of the round based off range,wind fields,gyro angles ect. When the engage signal is sent the drone software targets the head and then tries to move the IIP point to the head the millisecond the two align it triggers the round to go off before the IIP can move off target.

https://www.twz.com/sig-sauer-shows-off-p365-pistol-armed-aerial-drone

SMASH Dragon is platform agnostic here is it in rifle form for shooting drones in flight out of the sky, hitting people on the ground is easy compared to that.

https://x.com/F4SuperBugfan89/status/1856446503759315104

The USMC is getting the rifle scope version to shoot drones out of the sky while moving tests showed 80% first time hits on moving targets in the air and every UAV was hit when multiple shots were taken in rapid computer controlled fire. It turns the individual Marine into a rifle armed CWIS.

Won’t work in mini drones palm sized or bug sized is going to be really hard to kinetic kill them.

ANTIFA doesn’t exist according to Jimmy Kimmel so how can this be true.

We need to put up ARGUS on a couple of Grey Eagles.

No one is getting away from that system it’s called persistence ISR for a reason. It gives “pattern of life tracking” the nose of the Grey Eagle should already have the Lynx SAR radar with pattern of life tracking as well.

[The ARGUS-IS, or the Autonomous Real-Time Ground Ubiquitous Surveillance Imaging System, is a Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) project contracted to BAE Systems.

ARGUS is an advanced camera system it uses hundreds of cellphone cameras in a mosaic to video- and auto-track every moving object within a 15 sq mi (39 km2) area.[1]

ARGUS is a form of wide-area persistent surveillance system which allows for one camera to provide such detailed video that users can collect “pattern-of-life” data and track individual people inside the footage anywhere within the field of regard. It uses air assets (crewed aircraft, drones, blimps, aerostats) to persistently loiter and record video of a 36 sq mi (93 km2) area with enough detail to track individual pedestrians, vehicles or other objects of interest as long as the air asset remains circling above. Automatic object-tracking software called Persistics[2] from the Lawrence Livermore lab allows users to auto-track every moving object within the field of regard (36 sq miles) and generate geolocation chronographs[3] of each individual vehicle and pedestrian’s movements,[4] making them searchable via geolocation query.

As ARGUS floats overhead for months at a time, it dragnet tracks every moving person and vehicle and chronographs their movements, allowing forensic investigators to rewind the footage and watch the activities of anyone they select within the footage.[5]] -Wiki

Those commies are now a FTO officially designated this means all national technical means can be used against them. Bring in the damn drones and is.is them.

-—— Even knowing where a little green square starts and finishes its day can reveal a lot——

That sentence is from one of the links you posted.

As a matter of fact confirmed by my own eyes, individual in the protester chaos were in fact pointed out to the officers on the ground with what I recall as a rounded green mark. It was much larger than the small green mark of a Laser pointer. It moved so quickly it could have been a “little green square”

Any way the mark allowed officers on the ground to see and apprehend an offender that could easily be lost in the crowd of black clad asked lookalikes

“As an interesting aside, ICE officers on the Portland federal Building roof have pointing out the terrorists on the ground for arrest with a green laser. They can observe offenders that can quickly become lost in the chaos below”

Give them real laser PRF coded designators and let fly some EXACTO rounds from another rooftop or a hovering drone.

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=YoOaJclkSZg

Hover this over the target area a couple of them. Replace the 338 with a smooth barrel 50 and yeet guided rounds into the commies.

https://newatlas.com/autonomous-rotorcraft-sniper-system-packs-338-caliber-rifle-controlled-by-xbox-360-pad/11559/

It can lift 380 lbs for 9 hours. The M82A1 is 29lbs and that’s not stripped down to just the barrel action and magazine which is all that is needed on a UAV. With guided rounds no turrets needed either strap it down and point the UAV in the cone of fire let the guidance worry about the trajectory.

Airborne drones can have visible light laser designator they wouldn’t be very eye safe like IR ones are. The human cornea stops long and medium wave IR due to the water content the light never gets to the retina, using a green laser could blind some one who looked right into the beam you would need tight beam control and adaptive power levels to make sure at the target it was below the eye safe limits for reflections and glint. More likely it was someone further away using a green laser sight off a building top through their rifle scope those would appear to be wider because of the 500+ meter distances.

Just did the calcs at 250 meters a typical laser rifle sight would be 25cm wide if it had a initial 1.5mm beam and a divergence of .5 mrad for urban ops 250 meters is about the typical building to street level slant range.

Nope messed up 0.5mrad is 12.5 cm but the typical laser rifle sight is 1 mrad so 25cm is right the mrad was off.

What I believe I saw was a green spot that was 50 to 75 mm on the designated person

The siege in Portland has been in process for 4 months and has evolved. Recently there are perhaps four persons on the Federal Building roof observing the scene below. I had assumed that one of them pointed out the offender to the officers below. Things move so very fast, it is easy to lose sight of a single person. From above, that person is always in view and can be pointed out to those on the ground.

This week, it became stylish for the black clad trash on the ground to direct their distain to those on the roof.

When Kristi Noem visited the site, she viewed the scene from the position on the roof.

Retaliation that results in death is exactly what the left want.

Exactly. They are counting on their media scum accomplices to go nuts when that happens, expecting public opinion to sway their way during the propaganda blitz. They may not be wrong, given the sad low level of intelligence of the average American.

Years ago some democrat was pointing those things at people drving to work etc. Yeah, no one is ‘blinded’ permanently but it can cause an accident and death. Best thing to remember is that Antifa is a paid terrorist organization and it’s members need to be arrested, tried and put in prison and we need to find out who funds them - and do the same to them.

“What I believe I saw was a green spot that was 50 to 75 mm on the designated person”

To get a 75 mm spot from a 1 mrad source at 1.5 mm starting you would need to be 73 meters or closer. Very high end laser designators can be 0.5 mrad that doubles that distance too 147 meters both. For a 5 story building height 15 ish meters means a spot that size can be shined from 71 to 142 meters into the street for a 1mrad commercial grade laser sight to a military grade 0.5mrad. All plausible distances in MOUT ops. I would say your spotter is one of the snipers on the roofline above the fray.
