Yep - their proper response, if they were actually bothered by directives they allegedly received from the mayor, should be “If we can’t enforce laws equally against all violators, we will not enforce any laws”.

He received a bachelor's degree in Economics from Stanford University in 1985. He also earned an MBA from Columbia University and a masters in public policy from Harvard University

He's not dumb...just stupid.

I KNOW they DID NOT (past tense) because Mayor ordered them to stand down.

I said maybe they WANT TO (future tense)
do their jobs without fear of losing their jobs.

> Just enforce the law and if the filthy mayor tries to stop

> acting.

Exactly!

Telling the police to stand down against acts of violence is an UNLAWFUL ORDER!

"If this violence had been directed at Antifa, there would have been an immediate call for an independent, outside investigation. This is a perfect example of Portland politics at work and why our great city is now under fire in the national news."

Police Association President Daryl Turner 'gets' it... Gonna make it a lot harder for corrupt agents in the DC FBI to spread lies about 'right wing violence'... when every street cop in the country knows violence is coming from the left AND the left's pet victim groups.

Not interceding on behalf of an innocent citizen being brutally beaten in fear for his life is a crime and therefor must be disregarded.

What specific law is being broken by the police in this incident? The courts have ruled repeatedly that they have no duty whatsoever to act.

The job of the police is to protect the government, not the citizens.

I am working on building the new county courthouse by the Portland PD and this morning I was coming down the elevator and a detective looking cop with a badge in plainclothes and a guy in a suit got on, the guy in the suit said “ well when is the next big one” detective said “big what ?” , suit said “next big riot”, cop said , “we heard it’s set for the 19th, but this time we are expecting opposition from the right”, I said “ why can’t you just get some kind of warrant and physically block protests by groups with a violent track record” He said “great idea, I wish we could” and the elevator landed

I am thinking that at the next “protest” they may create their own False Flag “Far Right” group to attack themselves, they can target useful idiot tagalongs and blame it on the right and Trump

You could be right they’ll try... but hopefully our team will have cameras and the cops too.
