Today, Saturday April 30th, Sandy Mayor Stan Pulliam attempted to hold a campaign rally at Chapman Square in Portland. Members of Antifa showed up, throwing flash bangs, eggs, feces, and paint.
“Portland doesn’t belong to Antifa,” said Mayor Stan. “We showed up today because we know Portlanders are tired of the mass homelessness and lawlessness on the streets. Today just proved how much we need someone in charge who will lockup Antifa for good.”

No they’re not. They voted for it and will vote for it again.
1000% AGREED - NATION WIDE!!
While a decent bouncer would soon make these Peter Pan types leave, the bouncer would be arrested for assault.
Even if the charge was dismissed eventually, the process would be the punishment.
Why? Because it's Portland, and the city council, the mayor and the police chief all approve.
They are getting very very predictable. The grunt in me says that one day, there will be an ambush, a Vietnam mad minute, or an IED, or -something- unleashed on some carefully lured in antifa group.
And I will laugh and lift my teacup is salute when I see it on TV.
“No they’re not. They voted for it and will vote for it again.”
That is right. Not voting has consequences too.
No police in sight, no media outrage, no warnings of domestic terrorism. Antifa just marches on without opposition from the authorities.
I also am beginning to believe Antifa is "state sponsored", but its not a foreign entity, the word foreign in terms of another country, although definitely foreign to the rule of law.
“Portland doesn’t belong to Antifa,”
A half-century ago the people were saying “Portland doesn’t belong to Californians.” They were wrong then. They are wrong now.
Paging Paul Kersey...
They really behave like Nazis.
Or Communists.
Either antifa and blm are state sponsored or the local police have been taken over by the feds and have been ordered to stand down.
Just so you know. Mike Schmidt, the Multnomah county DA, bragged about his support for Antifa.
The mayor is also the police commissioner. He RIFed the police department. They are 300 short of full staffing, most neighborhoods have no police presence, and now that the "defund the popo" is an election loser, can't find any new recruits. The ones who apply for a job are the kids who used to set fire to small animals.
Kyle Rittenhouse did one thing wrong—he didn’t kill all three thugs.
Portland does belong to Antifa, apparently.
One Portland rioters did get 10 years...guy named Malik Muhammad. Maybe add Islamist to the list if that was his motivator.
