Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler is PUNCHED by social justice warriors angry over his crackdown on rioters and city's homeless as he dines outdoors

.....

The mayor of Portland Ted Wheeler was punched in the face on Wednesday night as frustrations over how he has responded to recent crises in the city boiled over.

Wheeler was dining outdoors with a companion when the protesters walked up to him and began shouting obscenities at the Democratic mayor.

Portland made national news when riots hit the city for more than 100 nights in a row last summer as Black Lives Matter protesters clashed with police in response to the killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis last May.

What began with calls to defund the police and reinvest in communities spiraled into anti-government demonstrations, including calls for Wheeler's resignation.

The video shows Wheeler dining at Café Nell's in Northwest Portland when he is approached by a group of protesters.

A person off-camera can then be heard yelling at the mayor who remains calm throughout the video addressing him by his middle name Tevis.

Wheeler asks the person yelling at him how old he is before telling him he needs to grow up.

'You are going to be made to feel like the scum you are,' the protester says in the video. 'F*** you! F*** you! Shame on you!'

'I think you need to do your job as a f***ing mayor. I think you're a disgrace,' he replies after Wheeler says that he thinks the group should leave. 'How dare you do sweeps when people are still on the streets.'

'You think that we're going to forget about you? We're never going to forget you, Tevis. Ever. Ever. I hope you enjoyed your little wine... you're f*****, Tevis.'

Yes, it's terrible to assault people in restaurants. I hope his booboo is all better. He did handle the assailant fairly maturely.

But the SANGFROID! My leg is tingling.

Once the Left run out of conservative targets, they will begin to eat their own.

Are “The Chickens Comin Home To Roost”?
I feel so bad for the mayor that I am weeping inconsolably.

I’m weeping that he got punched only once. That’s hardly sufficient.

“The mayor did not press charges and no arrests were made.”

Well, that’s the problem. Leftist, Democrat politicians are TERRIFIED of these people. Wheeler’s scared for his life, and he knows if he arrested them all Hell would break loose.

I’m convinced that’s one of the reasons they’re cracking down on conservatives — that’s what the extreme Left wants, and they’re so afraid of them they’ll do anything to appease them.

In addition to what I said above, they also know Antifa and BLM are responsible for Wednesday at the capitol. One BLM activist has already stated he hasn’t been charged for being there, and I bet there will be plenty more. Conservatives, on the other hand — who they DON’T fear because they know we’re not violent extremists — will be charged.

It’s like a parent who lives in fear of his child’s tantrums. The child becomes a dictator.

Yep, actually saw that in my own family. A cousin would basically tell his mom and dad what to do, and they would do it. It was sickening. I almost beat the little tyrants ass one year at a shared family beach vacation. Last one we ever did with them.

I was about to type”what the hell is a sangfroid?” when caution got the better of me and I’m glad I did. Thanks, I learned a new word today. Never heard it before.

No! Once the left gets back in power on Jan. 20, and once that same left fails to meet the SJW’s expectations, then they will turn on that same left. The Democrats, the MSM, and Big Tech have created a monster with an insatiable appetite short of communism. The storm troopers will be the same Antifa/BLM that terrorized our nation for the past year.
