A Portland Police Bureau training presentation on protests ended with a PowerPoint slide listing a prayer for a “dirty hippy” and the promise to send “my humble servants” with hats and bats to “christen” their “heads with hickory” accompanied by a photo of a helmeted officer raising his arm to a woman.
The last of the 110 slides in the presentation showed the “Prayer of the Alt Knight | Based Stickman” meme. “Based Stickman” refers to Kyle Chapman, the founder of a group called the Fraternal Order of Alt-Knights that formed as the “tactical defense arm” of the Proud Boys, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center. He’s a far-right Trump supporter and street brawler who earned the nickname “Based Stickman” after a video showed him hitting an antifascist activist with a wooden sign post in Berkeley in 2017.
“I am disgusted that this offensive content was added to a training presentation for our police officers,” Mayor Ted Wheeler, who serves as police commissioner, said in a statement Friday. “As soon as I was made aware of the incident, I reached out to Chief (Chuck) Lovell, who shared my deep concern and assured me that a thorough and complete investigation was underway.”
The city made the slide public, months after city attorneys turned it over to lawyers for the nonprofit Don’t Shoot Portland, a Black-led nonprofit that advocates for social and racial justice. The group has sued the city in federal court alleging officers used excessive force responding to protests in 2020.

Portland still has cops left?
The left is no friend to law enforcement. You couldn’t blame them if they went full ‘Roscoe Rules ‘.
Lol! I like it.
Is there a problem here, dirty hippie commie Wheeler?
Maybe “Dirty Hippy” is the State Bird in Oregon.
That, or the Koo-Koo.
A good question.
Maybe Wheeler is mad the it shows a cop, not a social worker cowering at the feet of a thug?
“That they may christen your head with hickory.”
And the christening of the head shall be hickory. Ash shall not be used, neither shall thy use oak…
Should be made into a playing card deck for distribution.
Indeed.
If I had any trust left in the “law enforcement community” this would be humorous.
Sadly, I don’t.

BTW - that’s not a woman. And the officer is clearly defending himself.
You’re right. Clearly not a DC capital cop.
Kyle Chapman hasn’t shown himself in public for years and still the leftists are flipping out about him.
Do I cackle with laughter and cheer them on or cower in cold realization?
Lol

A pretty stupid thing to put in a training video in Woke Oregon. You have to figure there’s a squealer in the room.
