Back, two years ago, Pantifa attempted to spread to some of the towns and suburbs surrounding Portland. Lacenter, Morton, Klamath Falls, Hillsboro, St Helens. The tactic was to rent a large Mercedes cargo van, change into the standard blac bloc during the trip, and stage a "protest", with the hope that they could spread the Looting and Burning into the racist small towns. This was when they had refined tactics like throwing fireworks shells and concrete "milk shakes," with their John Brown militias clumsily brandishing airsoft replicas, into the opposing civilian and police formations.
Every time, they were greeted by cold eyed men and police, with REAL "assault rifles," and Designated Marksmen on the roof tops, all itching to zotz a Commie.
Oddly, none of these confrontations made the local news. Pantifa hasn't been back.
Those towns were the first thing I thought about as well.
“I’m not the organizing type. But maybe someone who is can organize that.”
Coward. But I guess with good reason. There are more scopes on more dear rifles within 5 miles of my home than you could imagine.
