'Let’s make them hurt a little bit. . . . I’m also asking for your help to make a stand and take our city back.'
Antifa made the Portland Mayor flee his home and they sucker punched him in the face. But in response he did nothing.
Even in the final days of the Trump administration, Ted Wheeler was an indirect Antifa advocate. He was publicly offended at comparisons being drawn between the Far Left group and the January 6th Capitol Riots. Last year after the death of George Floyd, Antifa spent the summer sieging the Portland courthouse.
Pushover Wheeler has let Antifa riot in the city regularly, but now he’s taking it no more.
The Punished Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler put out a video announcement that’s essentially a call to action for the general public. “Let’s make them hurt a little bit,” Wheeler says.
“I’ve extended the state of emergency through the weekend. Our job is to unmask them, arrest them, and prosecute them. I want to personally thank neighbors, family, friends and others who have come forward with vital evidence. People know who these criminals are. They know what they’re up to. If you have any information, please contact the police. Acting Chief Davis will provide specifics shortly.
I also want you to know that these people often arrive at their so-called direct actions, in cars. And they’re all dressed in all black. If you see this, call the police. If you can provide a license plate, if you can do so safely, that information can help later.
Together we can make a stand. We’re doing what we can today. I’m also asking for your help to make a stand and take our city back.”
It’s such a direct and confrontational message that the Portland Mayor is putting out. Rioting has been at the forefront of concern in the aftermath of the Derek Chauvin trial.
In the last week alone, Antifa burned an Apple Store to the ground. Most recently during riots, after the state of emergency was declared, one of Antifa’s people got physical with police officers.
Finally.
Follow the ANTIFA folks to whatever sewer they live in.
Make that sewer worse than it’s ever been.
Keep it that way.
These folks are evil and are to be treated as such.
They bring a gun, you bring a bazooka.
Antifa’s the military wing of today’s Rat Party.
Really, the only way that will be effective is to let the cops give them a major beat down whenever they appear.
What’s the point, when the DA won’t prosecute?
Maybe they should start by picking up the ones who have already been arrested and reinstating their charges?
Is this satire??
Did the recall petition get his attention?
Now that they’ve achieved their purpose it’s under the bus time. That’s what all tyrannical regimes do once they consolidate power. If this is a true story. Kinda hard to believe.
Not the police. The police are Constitutionally limited in what they can do.
Give it to the people. Let 200,000 men with baseball bats go in and clean them out.
“Make them hurt a little bit”. He certainly chooses his words carefully. I’ll bet his lawn is covered in “hate has no home here” signs.
They are no longer useful so the leftists will eliminate them. It’s the same with BLM. They are coming to the end of their run, too many people realize who they are and are starting to trace them back to their origins.
If they thought police brutality was bad wait until they find out what their leaders have in store for them.
The men with bats will be arrested and jailed. Antifa is a sanctified group. Talk is cheap.
I wouldn't be surprised if the group leaders conducting the troop movements on the ground are FBI_CIA.
You made your own bed, Wheeler now find a way to clean all the crap out of it. Weak ass pathetic libtard limp wrist. Another city ruined by leftists no one cares anymore do they? The apple store fire probably brought him some heat to cop a clue already.
The 100,000 of them can keep the cops at bay for the 15 minutes.
So now that the useful idiots in Antifa have served their purpose of providing a narrative for the new media to show Orange Man Bad, now Wheeler is ready to try and put them away. This should be entertaining.
