The Washington Times ^ | 6/29/2019 | Valerie Richardson

An Oregon photojournalist who covers Portland’s frequently violent protest scene was taken to the hospital Saturday after being attacked by black-masked antifa activists.

Andy Ngo, an editor at the online platform Quillette, said he was struck on the head and face “multiple times” by antifa protesters, who also threw objects and a milkshake at him as he tried to walk away.

The attack, recorded in part by the Oregonian and posted on Twitter, came during Saturday’s Rose City Antifa counter-protest against a rally held by the far-right group Proud Boys in downtown Portland...

“Just once I’d love to see a sleeper group milling around in the crowd step in a beat the crap out of the thugs and then quietly step back into the crowd.”

Yep. I have often thought of exactly that.

From their website:
“The basic tenet of the group is that we are “Western chauvinists who refuse to apologize for creating the modern world.” Like Archie Bunker, we long for the days when “girls were girls and men were men.” This wasn’t controversial even twenty years ago, but being proud of Western culture today is like being a crippled, black, lesbian communist in 1953.”

The MSM and left tries to portray them as racist fascists.
They are a male only group but do have an official Proud Boys Girls group for women.

> Young people probably do not know that USSR stood for Union of Soviet SOCIALIST Republics <

And “Nazi” was the German abbreviation for National SOCIALIST German Workers Party.

In the eighties, ANTIFA stood out from the mob of Global Socialist organizations in Europe by occasionally deploying rocket propelled grenades or mortars.

I doubt they are less prepared today.

Portland police have a staffing problem. Recently lowered their requirement to be a police officer in the state.

I think there should be a law against masking your face in a mob like that.

Woohoo x 2!

“Fully automated luxury communism”
and
“Feudalism with better marketing!”

What a thought-provoking article!

Can you post it as a thread?

Andy Ngo has a lot of guts. Very outspoken.

He's awesome. I follow him on Twitter. He's been doing God's work reporting on Antifa and their activities in the PNW not to mention his reporting of fake hate crimes all across the country.

He has a target on his back and I'm deeply saddened but not at all surprised of this news. I hope whoever is responsible spends a long time in prison. This crap has got to end.

All the better if they were dressed and masked like ANTIFA.

And there’s much difference between the two. See the Hayek quote on my FR profile page. Two paragraphs, 3rd one down.

The Portland politicians and police are part of the traitorous Antifa. They are like the Nazi brownshirts.

Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler allows Antifa to run the city. The cops stand aside and do nothing. This is no exaggeration.
