Arresting Victims the Only Way to Prevent Violence [semi-satire]

Portland Mayor Keith Wilson's decision to align himself with the masked Antifa "protesters" confronting the ICE agents attempting to enforce America's immigration laws has created an inverted sense of justice in the city. At a demonstration outside the ICE offices in the city Antifa goons proceeded to attack journalist Nick Sortor who was observing the demonstration. Though outnumbered, Sorter's efforts to defend himself attracted the attention of the Portland Police who arrested him "for his own protection."

The arresting officer explained "first of all, there was only one of him and dozens of Antifa. Arresting Sorter was feasible with minimal risk of additional injury to anyone. That wouldn't have been the case if we had tried to arrest his assailants. Second, even if we had managed to apprehend any of the Antifa offenders we would have been immediately ordered to release them on their own recognizance. Third, we would've gotten a dressing down from the Mayor for interfering with a 'mostly peaceful' demonstration."

In the end, Sorter was charged with "disorderly conduct." This is the same charge leveled at a few others who engaged in fights with ICE agents during the "mostly peaceful" event.

Reminds me of something that happened in the UK.

A petite Christian female was standing in speaker's corner witnessing to a bunch of male mohammedans. This was totally legal but the police arrested her. For her own good of course.

The next time she showed up, one of the male mohammedans stabbed her in the face. Despite having all of this recorded the bobbies could not seem to find the perpetrator.

Oh and the lady? While waiting for the ambulance to show up she kept going. Because some people are really brave.

So this guy is aligning himself with antifa which has been designated as a terrorist organization… and we do NOTHING?

Can we hire an AG that does more than comb her hair and read a script?
