PORTLAND: ANTIFA Sets Fire To Police Station With Police Still Inside
Portland Police Bureau ^ | 06/26/20

Posted on 06/28/2020 5:05:34 PM PDT by Enlightened1

Arrest Information for June 25th Demonstrations

At approximately 10:00 pm, several hundred demonstrators began gathering outside North Precinct near Northeast Emerson Street and Northeast Martin Luther King Boulevard. Demonstrators arrived with supplies to build a fence and began erecting one which stretched from the south side of North Precinct to the north side of the Boys and Girls Club. While building the fence, demonstrators blocked northbound traffic at Northeast MLK Boulevard. During this time, demonstrators began throwing projectiles at police including glass bottles.

By 11:00 p.m., demonstrators began moving dumpsters and other large barriers around North Precinct. Some demonstrators began ramming the dumpsters into large garage doors located on the west side of the North Precinct in an attempt to breach the building. Demonstrators were not successful at breeching the doors so they turned their attention to barricading exit doors so officers inside the building, as well as people in custody, could not get out.

By 12:00 a.m., a demonstrator in the crowd outside North Precinct began yelling over a bullhorn that they were "going to burn the building down". Several demonstrators in the crowd were wearing masks and yielding shields. Fireworks were thrown at Officers over the barricade they had built on Northeast Emerson Street.

Around 1:00 a.m., there were still several hundred demonstrators in the crowd surrounding North Precinct. Due to life safety issues, the sound truck made an admonishment stating an unlawful assembly had been declared, instructing the crowd they needed to leave the area immediately or they could be subject to use of force or arrest.

We know what needs to be done but the very people in control are with the enemy and preventing the police from doing thier job. It comes down to the people. If the cretans ever make the mistake of bringing this to residential neighborhoods, it is game on and they will finish what should have been done in the first place

Those who restrained the police from defending themselves when attacked have given aid and comfort to the domestic terrorist enemy.

The Constitution has a word for that.

Was CNN there reporting about the “peaceful protest” while filming the burning building?

Instead of shutting it down at 10 pm, they wait until life and property are in peril before they decide to shut it down. Sorry, don’t care.

From 10 pm to 1:30 am...what did the precinct Captain think they intended to do with the lumber @ 10:30pm, build a band shell?

Don't the have working, radios, telephones? After all that's happened before....SMH!

No rapid reaction force...in the 21st century? Marksmen on the roof?

If the brass don't walk off and expose Mayor's insane ROE, Portland becomes our home style Benghazi...mortar, WTF?

Tear gas first, if not effective then lead.

Probably a Fireworks Mortar, not a military mortar.

First degree arson and attempted first degree murder, which will be amended down to unlawful burning.

Think of the carbon footprint!

This will continue and escalate as long as the communists running dem controlled cities tie the hands of law enforcement. A big part of this scheme is to plant the narrative that the country is in chaos and Trump is doing nothing. Most Americans think the President can wave a magic wand and deploy the armed forces and other feds. I don't know how DJT is going to handle this. He may be waiting for a bloody enough incident to declare martial law in some dem pesthole. The feces will hit the fan then and the many establishment types in the DOD and armed services will obstruct him all they can, up to what amounts to mutiny by flat refusal to obey what will be termed an ‘illegal’ order. Trump is in a bad spot, he can end up losing whatever he does. This will not help him in swing states such as Ohio or Wisconsin. These communists will keep escalating the violence until November. Watch for lots of spectacular arson jobs carried out by pros under the cover of the BLM rioting.

Has Trump declared ANTIFA a terrorist organization yet?

The perps and leadership must be hunted down & prosecuted as the terrorists they are.

I agree. I heard a rumor there are foreign fighters among them. I wonder if it’s true?

Howdy, Noumenon. Good to see you are still in the game.

I think it's been twenty years since you stated, "If left unchecked, the liberal marriage of ignorance and arrogance will beget the bastard children of ruin and slaughter." Those are words I have never forgotten.

Fast forward to present day. Very prescient.

Personally, I think maybe the police should just deploy a few skunks into the crowd.

They are “natural”.
