For the record THIS is why Democrats win all the time.

If the situation were reversed and this State Rep would have been GOP, she would have resigned and out the door before the news broke.

Did the Speaker Kotek defend her (protester) for “freedom to destroy the property of others”?

My freedom of expression would involve ventilating lots of ANTIFA.

Where is *freedom of expression* found in the Constitution?

It’s the police’s form of freedom of expression.

Oregon deserves all this because of the loons they have elected over the years.

By the standards of the Democrats and MSM, mobs are “mostly peaceful”. After all, it is usual in a riot situation for a chosen few to actually lob material in the direction of others, start fires, and physically attack others. Most people are there to provide (im)moral support.

I would hope some FR legal beagle would jump in here. If three people participate in robbing a store and some person is hurt aren’t all people who participate in the robbery subject to being charged with the assault on the person hurt. Even if one of the three is killed, aren’t the other two subject to at least manslaughter charges? Why wouldn’t the bystanders at a riot be considered as participating in throwing the Molotov cocktails?

...rioters threw firebombs, rocks, and mortars...

Maybe this can be done to her house. Freedom of expression and all that.

She needed a Billy Club shampoo for helping burn down buildings and mugging innocent victims.

“Where is *freedom of expression* found in the Constitution?”

According to a brief at Cornell University: “The First Amendment guarantees freedoms concerning religion, expression, assembly, and the right to petition. ... It guarantees freedom of expression by prohibiting Congress from restricting the press or the rights of individuals to speak freely.” This defines expression of speaking, not throwing firebombs or hitting people. That is a criminal act.

The problem with slander or liable is that it is the responsibility of the harmed to prove that it was done intentionally. And you’d be surprised how stupid people can become. Mind turns into jello...like Hilly.

“...Tina Kotex is an elfin muncher of rug....”

Most likely, it was Tina’s favorite “rug” that got arrested.
