During a military briefing Friday, President Trump indicated he sent federal law enforcement officers to Portland to quell the nightly protests over police violence, and claimed Portland police were incapable of managing the protests themselves.
In the wake of the killing of George Floyd by police in Minneapolis in May, hundreds and sometimes thousands of protesters in Portland have taken to the streets nightly.
Last month, Trump signed an executive order to protect monuments and statues from protests nationwide as well as combat criminal activity. In response, the Department of Homeland Security sent officers to Portland; Seattle; Washington, D.C.; and Gettysburg National Park in Pennsylvania, according to a DHS official who spoke on background. The official wouldnt discuss additional locations, specific agencies or units, but did say that hundreds of federal law enforcement officers were deployed to areas around the country as a result of Trumps executive order.
A lot of this was a big push for the July 4 weekend, the official said. Were still in an enhanced posture. Were prepared for if there is more violence, were ready to deal with it.
But from all the talk we heard lately again, there was no police to protect Americans from the Antifa rioters.
Footage emerged last night and shows Antifa rioters that surrounds two white Americans and accuse the of being rednecks.

If the silent majority doesnt speak up soon, they will become the minority. And, quite frankly, will have deserved what theyve allowed.
Lately, it seems that we conservatives cant win even when were winning. But the country is under siege, so we cannot indulge the luxury of being discouraged.
This year has been one body blow after another to the nation we love.
That’s because the police are scared of doing anything to the snipers. They aren’t afraid of arresting law abiding citizens.
If he was a thug, he wouldn’t attack you if you saw him. They like to sneak up and sucker punch the elderly.
The parking garage is a one way entrance/exit. A single car can block the entire garage.
There is no visible security in the garage other can cameras.
Over half of the building is minority due to hr having complete control of who is hired.
I told mgt I am no longer comfortable being in that building for those reasons.
Actually it is a smart tactic. You always want to give the impression of overwhelming numbers.
Where is the police?
So, suppose a policeman sees someone who appears to be committing a crime and the cop tries to arrest him. The perp wont cooperate. Immediately, the cop is surrounded by half-a-dozen people, with their smart-phone cameras out. So what happens then?
Does the cop try to make the arrest by restraining the perp, and risk being reprimanded, or worse fired and sued?
Where is the police? Good question.
Just as a courtesy.
Just sayin'
For white people to stop being racist, they must experience racism! Sarcasm? Maybe or maybe not. Ask Rhodesians about their experience. If demographics are indeed destiny, a center-right white majority America may no longer exist. Payback may well be a bitch.
The antifa/blm riots gave permission to various bastards to attack humans/normal people/Republicans.
I get you point but consider the impact, if you will, of the seismic cultural and demographics changes in this country in recent decades. That has been a game changer. We are no longer the country we used to be and therefore I don’t think your analogy is reflective of what’s going on today. I may be wrong but at least I’m explaining to you why I disagree.
Ironically, we are quickly closing in on a time when such open and constructive disagreement might no longer be possible.

I think their actions will continue until one day they will take on some folks that are 2nd Amendment believers and the narrative will then change.
Or we’ll see more of what happened to the MO couple who just had their guns taken by court order.
Paging Paul Kersey and his .475 Wildey Magnum
Conservatives and ordinary people who want to preserve some semblance of a peaceful life are going to have to toughen up in ways that may be counter to their sensibilities and generous spirit. Strength is the only thing that is respected in this world. Right now, we’re not exhibiting it in my opinion.
All great contests come down to strength and the will to win. The odds are stacked against us so we have to prepare for some major confrontations and adjustments.
It sounds to me like you have the right mindset to deal with the coming conflict.
Regards and stay safe.
Funny how everyone is channeling Paul Kersey from Death Wish. He became a vigulante after his house was broken i to, his wife was killed and his daughter attacked. The real question is when will we as conservatives grow a pair and start standing with the cops, weapons and all? Sorry ya’ll but its up to us to stop this.
Rednecks in Portland, I don’t think so.
If the story said, “ several Antifa found severly beaten in local park” then maybe. Or better yet, 5 dead and 6 shot in local park, most definitely.
Bump
That has already happened numerous times. And what it has proven is the police who arrest the person who defended themself are the enemy. So are the politicians, district attorneys and judges who charge, try and convict a person who tries to protect themself.
