CNA Staff, Nov 5, 2020 / 04:15 pm MT (CNA).- A Catholic church in downtown Portland, Oregon - known for helping the area’s poor - suffered shattered windows during a riot Wednesday night that saw nearly a dozen protestors arrested.
The Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office on the evening of Nov. 4 shared photos of shattered glass doors at the entrance to Saint André Bessette Catholic Church, located in Old Town Portland.
Sometimes known as the “Downtown Chapel,” Saint André Bessette has occupied several locations in the downtown Portland area since 1919. The present location, which the church has occupied since 1971, includes a drop-in center, a kitchen, and showers and washing machines for the homeless.
The protest began as a “Defend Democracy” rally, local news reported as election results were being reported.
According to police, two protest groups met in separate locations Wednesday evening, then marched through Portland. A group of about 100 people moved along West Burnside Street, breaking windows as they moved.
Police in Portland declared the protest Wednesday night a riot, and arrested at least 11 people. One of the people arrested had a rifle, several magazines of ammunition, an improvised explosive device, a knife and spray-paint cans, police said.

Biden Supporters Damage Catholic Church Known for Outreach to the Poor
There. Fixed it.
Someday it would be nice to read about Portland rioters mowed down by people defending their community.
Amen. It is inconceivable that People of Portland residents don’t say
ENOUGH!
Again, Portland.
I could care less if they burned the entire city to the ground and hanged every politician/govt official they got.
They voted for it, they own it.
The People of Portland are anti-Trump, anti-Republican, and anti-conservative bigots.
These people can’t be reformed of re-educated they’re a “lost cause.”
There are only two ways to get rid of them:
1) American capitalist redirect financing away from these urban “money pits.”( not likely anytime soon)
2) Politicians cut a bunch of government jobs that benefit the Portland public sector.(even more unlikely)
The antifa supporting electorate of Portland are like cockroaches. “Hard to get rid of.”
The Church was probably an SJW BLM Church.
