Cops and the Military are two different things. Maybe the original poster should ask the admins to change the header of the post.

Rushed out but made no arrests. I guess our Mattel soldiers don’t have any bullets.

SHOOT THE MFERS

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

Produce yours.

The headline was taken directly from the Twitter post.

Yes, their shields do say “police,” but some are dressed in camo. I found that confusing, too, but I can’t find more info.

That is not extraordinary proof.

That is a cop-out. If you want to talk ‘fake’, it is your post and your cop-out. You are behaving completely lame. Are you a Democrat Underground plant?

it seems a lot of people are confused as to exactly who the uniformed officers are. from some of the replies at Andy Ngo’s twitter feed:

The Federal Protective Service, US Marshals, SWAT

Andy, not the military. Probably USMS SOG along with FPS.

Might be a Marshal’s SOG group... part of their (USMS) mission statement is to protect courts.

There were larger demonstrations in other parts of the city - I do not think it’s the National Guard. This has been going on for 35 nights straight, sometimes till dawn. The mayor is the police commissioner and he is a Leftist fool.


whoever, it is unbelievable that any City officials would be supporting such behaviour by rioters.

the Oregonian article posted mentions:

“Portland Commissioner Jo Ann Hardesty also called on Wheeler and Police Chief Chuck Lovell to implement several changes, including banning tear gas for any reason and advocating for charges to be dropped against journalists arrested while covering demonstrations.
“On Thursday, a judge issued a 14-day order to exempt journalists from Portland police orders requiring protesters to disperse during declared unlawful assemblies or riots.”


makes it sound like the “journalists” are part of the protests.
Andy Ngo excepted, of course.

The police are there to protect the criminals from us.

Martial law is not the solution you’re looking for.
