Months of escalating clashes by far-right groups in Portland, Oregon could turn even uglier at a Saturday rally where the right has threatened to carry guns and infiltrate anti-fascist groups.
Patriot Prayer and the Proud Boys are far-right organizations that have attracted violent racists. The two groups have spearheaded a series of west coast rallies, including a June 30 rally in Portland that descended into violent clashes with anti-fascist protesters. Now they are scheduled to rally on Saturday in Portland, where their leaders have encouraged the carrying of guns and their followers have fantasized about beating up counter-protesters.
Joey Gibson, Patriot Prayers leader and a longshot U.S. Senate candidate, variously defends his rallies as a free speech project, an anti-liberal campaign, and a crusade to expose the anti-fascists who counter-message the rallies. In Portland, his groups stated beef is with anti-ICE activists and the citys mayor, who initially took a hands-off approach to anti-ICE protests.
The goal is to get the country so outraged they put pressure on the mayor to actually respect the Constitution, Gibson said of the upcoming rally during a Tuesday appearance on InfoWars. Basically thats what we do. We put so much pressure on the local politicians to the point where they break.

Agreed.
A few 10/22’s targeting knees could end Antifa quickly.
LOL! As opposed to Antifa and Democrat supporters actually beating up and shooting conservatives.
Democrats ARE VIOLENT. And like to pretend they are not by calling conservatives violent.
Oh, ya, I agree. Antifa and other domestic terror groups deserve to be shot on sight. If the police aren’t going to enforce the law, i.e. masking, then if the Democrat Left turns violent, counterprotesters need to defend themselves.
:^)
Kelly Weill is a lying sack of $#!t.
Just laying the groundwork to make ANTIFA look like victims if the trouble she’s trying to stir up comes to pass.
Like I said, she’s a sack of $#!t.
Agree 100%.
Brilliant idea, but they ought to be going in stealth node. Just pull down the black face mask, worm your way in, and start jamming shivs in fascists’ backs.
Fight dirty if we must, but fight.
H-y-s-t-e-r-i-a!
The last video i saw of the two groups clashing in Portland looked to me like both sides are jonesing for a fight.
Not good.
like all leftists - antifa clowns dont like competition for their attention whoring ...
