Portland Prosecutors Drop 90 Percent of Cases Stemming from Riots

Prosecutors in Portland, Oregon, have dismissed charges on 90 percent of the protesters arrested during Antifa and anti-police riots in September. One had also been charged with attempted murder, assault, and arson. Of the 213 arrested that month, only cases for 19 are pending.

In addition to dropping 9 out of every 10 cases in September, authorities dismissed more than 70 percent of the almost 1,000 arrests since May, a case tracker kept by the Multnomah County District Attorney’s Office revealed. The figure is worsened by reports from The Oregonian that more cases have been dismissed than those shown on the tracker.

They were sanctioned by the dimoKKKRATS. Self defense or non sanctioned demonstrations and you will pay with the full extent of the law.

This means if you loot, burn businesses, and destroy public and private property you have a 90% chance of not being prosecuted.

You can be sure they will prosecute, with prejudice, any and all mask violations

Good. The people of Portland voted for anarchy and lawlessness so let them live with it and pay for it.

Correct. Pretty soon there won’t be any vendors/stores stupid enough to do business there. And there won’t be any insurance available to them at affordable prices either.

Hey Portlanders if you are assaulted robbed etc. don’t call the cops. shoot to kill.
Cause if a blm goon assaults you and you call the cops the goon will be out tomorrow to assault you again.
Have to wonder how the D.A. and his flunkies would act if they were the ones being assaulted or having their homes or bidnesses torched?
Not that I am advocating violence against these cretins, But.
Were I on a jury where you were accused of taking a ball bat to one of these prosecutors heads and I were on a jury I would vote , Not guilty.
