Post Millennial ^ | 4/3/23 | staff

A Portland man was arrested on Friday in connection with a string of violent robberies across the city. Harold P. Griffin III, 34, has been charged with two counts of robbery in the first degree, assault in the second degree, assault in the fourth degree, and fraudulent use of a credit card.

Griffin was apprehended just hours after Portland Police sent out a press release.

In one incident that took place on March 13, Griffin was caught on camera beating another man with a golf club outside a cafe downtown before pouring hot coffee on him, kicking him in the head, and making off with his backpack.

I'm sure his time in jail will be short, but at least he was arrested. That's a start.

DA, Mike Schmidt, will not press charges.

Especially Portland where the “diversity” is more important than safety.

AND, as usual, his mugshot will not be released as per Multnomah County policy to protect the melanated and antifa crowd.

“As Ngo reports, while on the run from authorities, Griffin was convicted of felony robbery in a neighboring county. Under Oregon law, he was eligible to have that felony reduced to a misdemeanor, and only sentenced to two years probation.”

What bazarro world am I living in?

You're right!

Sure glad, I went to the trouble to get an Oregon Concealed Pistol License. Portland is starting to look a lot like the Old wild West.

Try defending yourself against murderous thugs with a firearm in Portland, and you’ll likely land in jail for a few years.

Better to just get out and shake the dust from your feet.

What happens to law abiding citizens rights when they let criminal monsters roam free?

That’s right, they have been disenfranchised from their Constitutionally guaranteed rights. The govt has decided to protect the guilty and victimize the innocent. They’d do well to start thinking about what innocent people do when they’re denied their rights.

The old Wild West was not very wild. There were a lot of Civil War veterans and sons of same. They knew how to handle trouble.

It’s safe to say it wasn’t a cleek... nobody can hit with a cleek.

I visited Portland. If you don’t have a concealed carry permit there are special rules for Portland. Outside of Portland iirc you can have your pistol in the trunk.

In Portland, the gun has to be in the trunk, no magazine in the gun, and the magazine has to be unloaded. Even if the pistol and magazine are in separate compartments and the magazine is loaded, it is considered a loaded gun!

I hear all the gang-bangers that can’t get a permit carry their bullets in plastic baggies.

“The old Wild West was not very wild.”

True. Mostly the boomtowns after mineral strikes. Then came Hollywood.

As for Portland, it is simply (to use an acronym coined in Denver back when they opened their Grand New Airport) D.I.A. Democrats In Action.
