[WHERE’S MAYOR DALY when u need him?]

Daley’s voters might have volunteered to kick hippie ass for free if Chicago cops had promised to look the other way. Portland’s voters want to join Antifa and BLM. What’s disturbing is that Portland’s population is 77.4% non-Hispanic white.

Amazingly, braindead Wheeler doesnt mind showing his ignorance, saying:
"My good faith efforts at de-escalation were met with ongoing violence, and even scorn, from radical anarchists.”

This moron actually expected "good faith efforts" would mitigate the violence of these Antifa thugs?

Wheeler's visited a catastrophe on the good people of Portland and he should be made to pay.

Maybe the people will find it "necessary to use additional tools" to bring Wheeler's self-made criminal destruction and violence to an end.

[I want the USA back]

He deliberately allowed the criminal rioters to steal, destroy and attack. So he is responsible for their actions.

Burn baby burn. The leftists voted for leftists. They are reaping what they sow. More popcorn!!!

[Bon of Babble]

He just won re-election against an even further left candidate:

Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler re-elected, beating Antifa-aligned rival Sarah Iannarone

These were the two best candidates Portland could muster up?

Elections have consequences.

[dynachrome]

The police in big cities care more about their pensions than the good citizens.

[Ge0ffrey]

No. It took the “defeat” of Donald Trump.

[lepton]

Well, the election IS past.

[1Old Pro]

Something to do with election day.

[lepton]

More to the point, it took Wheeler getting reelected and the November elections having taken place for the Dems to call off some of their brown shirt terrorists.

Exactly. Even they know part of where tolerating this stuff leads.

[lepton]

How stupid does this ass hat 🧢 think we are?

---

Stupid enough to re-elect him, and to blame Trump. A disturbingly large proportion did just that.

[MarkL]

There is no antifa... It’s only an idea, or to quote congress-critter Nadler, it’s a hoax made up by right-wing conspiracy theorists.

And the protests were always “mostly peaceful,” with only occasional fires lit.

The police in big cities care more about their pensions than the good citizens.

---

The police in Portland appear to have been quitting as soon as they can secure a job elsewhere - for lower pay, benefits, and pension.

Ted Wheeler is the quintessential spineless progressive liberal.

He doesn't have a clue. Clue-challenged, as they say.

He believes everybody thinks like he does. Wrong. Very few people think like he does.

He's not a leader. He wants to be just one of the gang. He wants to fit in with the anarchists.

He's afraid to take decisive action for fear of offending Antifa and BLM. He appeases and enables them to continue their violent and destructive behavior.

When reality sets in and he realizes they don't like him and Trump can't be blamed anymore, it starts to dawn on him that he might be the problem and blamed for all of the destruction of the once beautiful City of the Roses.

And he is still so unsure of his self and this decision to clamp down of the rioters, that he hesitates to do anything significant or substantial to stop the violence and arson.

I mean, what if they don't like me anymore?

What a Leftist loser. Maybe things would be different if he put on his pink vagina hat?

[a real Sheila]

That there’s what you call
“Weapons Grade Stupidity!”

[Cold Heart]

Keep Portland “Stupid to infinity and beyond.”

Portland’s new slogan

[Cold Heart]

Portland voted for the mess in Portland.

Portland voted for the mess in Oregon.

[Liz]

Voted? I would not be too sure about that, what with the encyclopedia of voter fraud we’ve been hearing about.

[lurk]

The solution is quite easy. Simply arrest ten per night and actually prosecute them with intent to imprison for full time. After a couple of nights, problem solved.

[Cold Heart]

71% of Portland voters are registered democrats.
