Portland ICE facility to remain closed on Thursday as protest continues

PORTLAND, Ore. -- The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility in Southwest Portland will be closed again on Thursday, citing security concerns as protests outside the building continue.

The office on Southwest Macadam Avenue was first closed on Wednesday. ICE spokeswoman Carissa Cutrell said appointments scheduled for Wednesday and Thursday have been canceled. Deportation officers will contact individuals to reschedule appointments.

"Normal operations will resume once security concerns have been addressed," she said.

On Wednesday, Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler said he drove by the protests and commended participants on what he said was a peaceful demonstration against an agency "that has not fully lived American values of inclusion."

"I want to be very clear that I do not want the Portland Police to be engaged or sucked into a conflict, particularly from a federal agency that I believe is on the wrong track," he said. "If they are looking for a bailout from this mayor, they are looking in the wrong place."

They need to take care of this ASAP, with the National Guard, if they have to.

Otherwise, the idiots will see how successful it is, and do this at every facility across the nation.

Okay, I didn’t get it. I re-read the article just to see if someone said something like “no one is complaining when Canadians illegally cross the border,” or some such crap that liberals will often say.

President Trump, these "protesters" have prevented scheduled deportation hearings from occurring. The enemy is now the ersatz authority in charge of adjudicating these cases.

Maybe it's time to call out the U. S. Marshals Service to ensure that the lawful business of government can proceed?

These must be carefully selected photos. They don’t look like much of a security threat to me.

US Marshals?

Why?

ICE Agents are armed law enforcement. They can not take of themselves?

Hopefully the FBI is secretly infiltrating PDX Antifa and Occupy (both just different wings of Soros funded NGOs.) FBI took down the greenies HARD back in the early 2000’s. Tre Arrow can attest to this.

Well presumably, there are clerks, receptionists, lawyers, and other who work for ICE who are not armed enforcement agents. But if ICE can handle it, then let them. But apparently thus far ICE has lacked the will to reopen their own offices and hearing rooms.

What would the US Marshals do?

Send two agents over?

They are not Texas Rangers...One Riot, One Ranger.

The FBI? Are you serious? They have been infiltrating but not Antifa or Occupy. Those are the good guys in their minds.
