The occupation of the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement headquarters on the South Waterfront has over six days expanded from a scattering of chairs to a village of more than 80 tents, four portable toilets, six couches, a commissary and a medic's office.
The protest now closely resembles the Occupy Portland camps that seized two downtown parks in 2011. Once again, a Portland mayor has sanctioned the takeover—but this time, the target is a federal agency, and the goal is to directly impede its work.
Mayor Ted Wheeler has pledged to not intervene with Occupy ICE, saying he considers the work of federal immigration agents "un-American" and doesn't want Portland police to aid ICE's operations.
The blockade would now be difficult to dislodge anyhow.
"We've seen tremendous support," says Mary Ann Warner, an occupation organizer. "We're seeing so much food. I don't think anyone's going hungry."

The protest, blocking the front doors and driveway of ICE's building along Southwest Macadam Avenue, has forced the suspension of agency work since June 18. The Portland occupation, the first nationwide, is an attempt to disrupt President Donald Trump's "zero tolerance" policy that has treated refugees seeking asylum as criminals and separated small children from their parents.

Almost all of these bums are on the Soros payroll. Same Antifa/BLM crowd drawing a different paycheck.
Would be exciting if AMTRAK got switched to this track....LOL!
How nice of those assholes to block people who are trying to LEGALLY immigrate.
So SICK OF THESE LAWLESS SONS OF BITCHES!!!!!
WHEN DO WE SEE JUSTICE????!!!!!
I would bet that most of these grifters do not have jobs and are mooching off the American taxpayer.
Just a wild guess mind you.

What? Have run out of water cannons and tear gas? Get the bums the hell out of there!
Run a train through there about 60 mph.9
If they occupied a bird refuge in the middle of nowhere they would be ambushed and killed.

What the hell are we paying taxes for?
Federalize the Oregon National Guard and send a battalion of infantry to clear the place. Arrest the Mayor for aiding and abetting a federal crime, bring the hammer down on them Mr President, meet force with more force.
Works for me.
Introduce the trespassers to the prison system.
“What the hell are we paying taxes for?”
To pay $775.00 per day per kid that manages to end up on our side of the border.
Now shut up and go back to work, Nazi.

Removal of this interference must go through the mayor’s office. If he refuses to remove it, then to the governor. If they still refuse, then federal authorities will have to enter and do it.
At that point, a potentially violent standoff between state and federal police authorities may take place. Does Governor Gray in California then say “we stand with our comrades in Oregon”?
paid by?

There should be water-cannons and police dogs chewing these cretins up right now.
Why have federal agents or troops done anything by now? Seriously...when you let some thing drag this long it makes you look incredibly weak.
BINGO
It’s an open insurrection by Democrats. They are psychotically acting out. I feel like a stranger in a strange land. I don’t like that feeling either. Enough.
