Oregon Governor Brown condemns white supremacy but not Antifa (from 9/3/20)
Oregon Governor's Office ^ | 09/04/20 | Spirit of Liberty

Posted on 09/04/2020 9:00:03 PM PDT by Spirit of Liberty

Governor Kate Brown issued the following statement today with elected officials and community leaders:

“As elected officials and community leaders, we are coming together to condemn the acts of violence in Portland that have occurred as thousands of Oregonians have been peacefully protesting for racial justice and police accountability.

“The violence must stop.

“There is no place for white supremacy or vigilantism in Oregon.

All who perpetrate violent crimes must be held equally accountable.

“Together, we are committing ourselves to do the hard work that will bring meaningful change for racial justice and police reform.”

Apologies if posted elsewhere; I couldn't locate it if so. The above statement was released by Governor Brown's office by email to reporters yesterday.

Today, she had a press conference and was asked why she singled out white supremacist organization in the statement but not Antifa or other bad actors.

Her response: Brown said that her words stemmed from a vision for Oregon's future that included eradicating racism.

"My understanding of these organizations is that they are based on hate, and I think it makes it very difficult to build what Dr. King would call 'a beloved community,'" Brown said.

When pressed again about Antifa, she said they would continue working with the community. Never once did she utter the words 'BLM' or 'Antifa'. https://twitter.com/i/status/1302012334810918912

What are BLM and Antifa if not vigilantes?

She doesn’t even know the definition of the word.

Black Lives Matter is a black supremacy movement.

Trump condemns hatred of both varieties, and it is not good enough for the media and/or Democrats.

Brown is obviously being paid handsomely to be a pro-Antifa/ militant BLM mouthpiece. Do some research and you will find that Demon-rat governors in Oregon have all been criminals! Check out her predecessor Kitzhaber.

Antifa/BLM is the terrorist wing of the Democratic Party.

That is the little secret she is trying to hide.

Sometimes people who defend lives / homes / businesses are labeled vigilantes.

Brown is either the stupidest governor in the US (and the competition is fierce) or is deliberately covering up for the communists/Marxists/black extremists and anarchists/psychopaths.

I’ll take the latter for $1,000,000, Alex.

Remember, the Democrat assholes in Oregon elected her and Wheeler in Portland. Says a lot about their IQs.

Vigilantes act for the supposed purpose of justice and the law of the land. BLM and Antifa are terrorists and enemy combatants.
