After all, they see that riot and mayhem is a totally accepted sporting event in Portland, a perennial favorite year after year.

Great - replace them with social workers and the whole thing will go away. Or so we’ve been told. Let’s see if that’s true.

Portland is guaranteed to burn.

Who’s going to stop the mayhem?

Nice federal courthouse you got there...
Nice neighborhood too.

From what I’ve read elsewhere, these guys were all specially trained in crowd control. So they won’t be easy to replace if Portland should decide to do so.

I know someone who had mentioned plans to move to Portland, but this was a couple years ago. I was informed recently that the plans have been dropped. Various reasons were given.

My own daughter and boyfriend plan to move to Portland in about 10 years. I keep telling her it isn’t the same Portland she knew when she went to school at the U of O 15 years ago, but she doesn’t believe me because I’m a conservative kook. I keep waiting for her to wake up and smell the coffee.

I wish all the Portland police would resign at once, say about 5:00 PM Friday night. Then let the “games begin”.

Games: “Seeing how far you can throw a lit Molotov cocktail”.

Seeing if you can burn down a building with a single firebomb.

Seeing how fast you can loot a store.

Seeing how many people you can assault, rob and rape in a 10 minute period.

See how many can overdose in one hour.

See you can poop the farthest.

Seeing how many decent people leave Portland in a month for safer areas.

Let the games begin!!!

The Leftists want a federalized police force so the more resignations anywhere the better. Then Biden and the DOJ will be in charge.

Just a step closer to the National (State) Police Force.

Actually, you're right - the two major trends in policing are: (1) Militarization of the police force, (2) increasing federal oversight.

The “I told you so” will be bitter-sweet.

All police controlled by democrat politicians should quit.

And the Federales will bring hot dogs to toast as the Mark Hatfield Federal Courthouse burns to the ground--if they even show up.
