PORTLAND, OR (KPTV) Changing course from their original stances earlier this week, the Multnomah County Sheriffs Office and Oregon State Police will join the Portland Police Bureau this weekend for protests in the city.
Gov. Kate Brown was joined by PPB Chief Chuck Lovell, Multnomah County Sheriff Mike Reese and OSP Superintendent Travis Hampton at a news conference Friday morning.
The four discussed law enforcements plans for several demonstrations scheduled in Portland Saturday. The sheriffs office and state police will lead crowd management with PPB for a unified response to the protests.
The governor announced she was using executive authority to mobilize deputies and troopers to be in Portland for 48 hours.

Now...State police officers and deputies have to go into Portland because Governor Brown ordered them...
Why do the Sheriff have to listen to Governor? I don't get that...She did not appoint him..."Executive authority"...Whatever that means...
State police...Of course...It is controlled by the Governor...
I am not sure how things will work out in Portland this weekend...No tear gas allowed...
Governor Brown expressed her concerns about "white supremacists"....Why not worry about Antifa instead? She is sounding silly by not talking about Antifa...
The Proud Boys claim they helped get the rules changed, so the cops can use gas.
“The Proud Boys claim they helped get the rules changed, so the cops can use gas.”
IF this is true, that’s a win. Is it true? I guess we’ll soon find out.
IOW, now the state police have to roll over and expose their jugular?
That really tells me shes one of them.
If that’s true, they’ll only use the gas on right-wing groups.

I do not understand why the extra need since these are all peaceful protests. /some sarc

Wonder if Brown is hoping for something similar to happen to her state's LEOs.
If you would like more information about whats happening in Oregon, please FReepmail me. Please send me your name by FReepmail if you want to be on this list.
State troopers should assume sniper stations with orders to take out the first shooter that shows a gun flash. Then broadcast a call to collect all firearms in a pile between the two factions. Cops gather the guns, and the demonstration continues. Or cops stay at their sniper positions and enforce the law against rioting.
Pass the popcorn, please ...
“If thats true, theyll only use the gas on right-wing groups.”
There are two sets of laws in this country: One set of laws for BLM/Antifa and another set of laws for the rest of us.
If a member of BLM/Antifa should shoot a Proud Boy in the head, then it will be considered as self defense. Should a Proud Boy or anyone not Antifa/BLM dare to defend themselves, then they will be charged with murder. In the minds of the left, we need to silently accept the fact that we are second class citizens. We will not be silent forever.
I like to imagine a dozen patriots lined up across the street where the riot is occurring, armed with shotguns and firing #2 shot into the legs of the perps.
Pretty sure that would clear the scene in a hurry.
