Moms Form Human Shield In Front Of Portland Protestors
Yahoo ^ | 7/19/20 | Julie Scagell

Posted on 07/19/2020 8:55:47 AM PDT by Libloather

As a part of President Trump’s executive order allowing federal officers to patrol cities in the wake of protesting, Portland has been consumed with unrest and violent government overreach. Protesters have been tear-gassed, assaulted, shot, and most recently it was reported that they were being removed from the streets in unmarked vehicles. It seems area moms have had enough and decided to step in to help protect the protesters.

The protests began in the city in the days following the murder of George Floyd and, though growing smaller, have not stopped in the past 50 days. And though these demonstrations would be described as peaceful protests - and not “riots” as the president likes to label them as - clashes between law enforcement officers and protesters, however, have become more violent. Coverage of the city’s unrest found its way to the Trump administration and the president vowed to “dominate” the city. Showing up in force last night, area moms have had enough.

In Portland, the federal courthouse is surrounded by a fence to keep protestors out. Preschool teacher Lindsey Smith shared a series of videos from the site yesterday and tweeted that protestors risk violence if they go anywhere near the fence. “Touching fences has resulted in tear gas, shooting, arrests, and more from police, both federal and local, over the past month and a half,” Smith tweeted. She then shared another video showing a line of moms arm-in-arm around the protestors, writing in part, “The moms are chanting, ‘Feds stay clear! Moms are here!’ at the federal courthouse. All three fences are still up.”

What has to be done has to be done by the fed up citizens. The police can’t do it. POTUS can’t do it. Not enough of us are angry enough...yet.

“peaceful protests - and not “riots” as the president likes to label them”


I thought it was the Portland police that declared them ‘riots’. Was I misinformed?

BS like “its for the children” and “Moms for whatever” just dont cut it anymore

Troof. It's all about framing the narrative. It's like when you see a headline, "Grandmother arrested for selling drugs." It conjures up an image of Gramma with an apron, baking apple pies, and not a gal who's thirty and both she and her kid got knocked up at fourteen.

Must be some really proud moms, knowing what hell-raising, bratty, Marxist monsters they raised. Portland is lost.

Presumably there are Antifa related electronic communications that should prove very incriminating if Barr ever decides to do something about it.

Portland is lost

These areas have to be reoccupied or the whole country is going to be lost.

And as usual, if the prorioters make it to moms house, they change their tune.

You can tell by the use of descriptors, like ‘protestors’, etc., that this is fake news. The use of softer terminology gives them away.

After a hard night of “protesting” it’s nice to go to mommy’s basement for a refreshing nightcap and a joint.
