The group worked with the newly reinstated Portland Police gun task force to host the event.

The police involved in this horrifying event should be indicted by a federal grand jury and charged with deprivation of rights under color of law, under US Code Title 18242. There should be a count for every gun taken from a citizen, for every infringement of the right to keep and bear arms.

These policemen USED THEIR POSITION to subtly threaten citizens to give up their rights, and they did it under color of law. Throw the book at 'em. Title 18242 specifies TEN YEARS per count for violations involving the use of a deadly weapon. And you know these cops were armed while taking the citizens' arms.

Agreed!!!

If police can literally get away with murder, I hope you have no expectation that merely conspiring to deprive citizens of their constitutional rights will be prosecuted.
