Portland Police moved to reassure Antifa extremists that a man they shot in the back was white in order to avoid a riot after it was erroneously reported the victim was black.
Yes, really.
After a man allegedly armed with a screwdriver was shot by cops outside a motel in Northeast Portland, authorities moved quickly to announce that the suspect was not African-American.
There is erroneous information being circulated on social media regarding in the officer involved shooting in the Lloyd district. We can confirm that the subject involved is an adult white male. No one else was injured.

“There is erroneous information being circulated on social media regarding in the officer involved shooting in the Lloyd district. We can confirm that the subject involved is an adult white male. No one else was injured,” tweeted Portland Police.
As Andy Ngo highlighted, the tweet was posted in order to avoid a confrontation with Antifa rioters, who were already gathering at the location after rumors swirled that the man shot by police was black.
Portland Police had to issue a tweet clarifying that the person shot today in NE Portland was white after antifa said it was a person of color. Antifa & far-left protesters have gathered at the scene to confront police based on the racial rumor. https://t.co/B4dJ71S5yF

If they did a DNA test and found he had 8% Negroid DNA would this be enough to call him black?
Portland Police moved to reassure Antifa extremists....
What the hell! Who is in charge in Portland?
Not the cops.
8% is probably more than Shaun King has.
Antifa is in charge.
Open season on whites. China pushing stories through US media that whites are racist because they say China virus. Everyone else agrees that blacks can do anything and if they are injured in any way the police a racist.
So pussy cops can’t handle a guy with a screw driver. They have worked their way into a no-win situation.
Good question. Could we call it the Racial Index Outrage Teat or RIOT for short?
Teat=Test
oh my it is bad out there....
It’s ok everyone, we killed a white guy, it’s ok.
I’m about ready. This shit has gone too far.
More racist libtards. New examples every day.
I can remember when the look e shot rioters and looters, now they kiss there ass and plead for mercy. What a pathetic country we now live in.
