We Wish There Were Some Kind Of Organized, Armed Force That Could Fight Back Against Antifa

PORTLAND, OR—In a press release earlier this week, Portland police chief Danielle Outlaw (her actual name), appearing somber and exhausted, said she just wishes there were some kind of group with the firepower and authority to fight back against Antifa.

In a candid moment, Outlaw (seriously, her actual name) said there was just nothing the police could do, as they'd need to have some kind of organized, armed force specifically created to protect and serve the people.

"Like, what if we took money from everyone to fund a force that could then defend them in a time of need?" she pondered aloud. "They could have patrol cars, firearms, and attack dogs. Maybe even some tanks. That would be so frickin' rad. They could have a badge to show their authority. Then, when a rogue group like Antifa shows up to take over our city every weekend, they could be repelled using force if necessary."

"I know it sounds crazy, but a girl can dream, right?" she added wistfully.

Sadly, there is no such force in Portland, so citizens have been forced to turn to an even crazier idea: taking responsibility for their own safety and well-being, and maybe even buying a gun to protect themselves.

Then Governor Reagan also used the National Guard to take care of Berkeley protesters in 1969.

This has to be a joke. It’s called taxes and police...you already have it.

Figure out the percentage of the state/local budget for police and their total compensation package.

Withhold your tax payments by that amount.

The Oregon NG and the OSP, who restricts itself to issueing 3 over speeding tickets on the interstates, are under the direct command of Commie dyke Kate Brown, so, no help there...

Well here’s a plan Chief Useless. Arrest the mayor and city council. Deputize the Proud Boys. Arm them and give them all your riot equipment (since you don’t use it) and sic them on those filthy antifa. Problem solved.

Antifa is very much like the Klan in its tactics.

No room so I put it on keywords and made a joke in comments about Blazing Saddles town hoping that would be enough clues.

Observe.

Once we are disarmed, no one is going to protect us from their Blackshirts.

"We Wish There Were Some Kind Of Organized, Armed Force That Could Fight Back Against Antifa"

I don’t know if this is fake news or not.

But if law enforcement people in Portland are really asking this question, then please consider the following.

Here are directly related constitutionally enumerated protections, the first item familiar to everyone.

H O W E V E R…

The reason that these protections are evidently not working in Portland, OR (Chicago, et al.) is this. We are still stuck with a worthless Congress left over from the lawless Obama Administration that will predictably not lift a finger to exercise the referenced powers to restore domestic tranquility.

The remedy for constitutionally failed federal, state and local governments…

Patriots not only need to elect a new patriot Congress in the 2020 elections that will promise to support PDJT's vision for MAGA, now KAG, but will also promise to exercise its constitutionally enumerated powers to reestablish the domestic tranquility that Chief Danielle Outlaw is allegedly looking for.

Remember in November 2020!

MAGA! Now KAG! (Keep America Great!)
