We don’t want them to find OUR terrorists.

Portland’s vibrant left-wing activist community turned out in force at Wednesday’s meeting to show its support for withdrawal.

Most of them, I do believe, drive in from out of state every time they need to have a dust up.

I’m beginning to think women should not be allowed into politics.....and I say that as a woman.

“FBI-led Joint Terrorism Task Force again.”

FBI led? Better to be led by the Boy Scouts.

That first photo goes a long way toward answering the question, “What’s wrong with Portland?”

One of the factors in the demise of the Soviet Union was satellite countries beginning to ignore central authority regulations...…………………

Just an observation.

“I’m beginning to think women should not be allowed into politics”

So said Thomas Jefferson: “Were our State a pure democracy...there would yet be excluded from their deliberations...women, who, to prevent depravation of morals and ambiguity of issue, should not mix promiscuously in the public meetings of men.” (Letter from Thomas Jefferson to Samuel Kercheval)

The new Marxists run Portland. Not much sane people can do about these reds and black extremists except leave, continue to try and get good candidates, or sit on their lazy asses and say “May I have another”?

If Portland gets hit I will not shed a single tear.

Not one.

Portland like San Francisco deserves themselves. Put a wall around those cities and shoot anyone who tries to leave. No one else wants their BS.

I see no reason to invite the Feds to embed and influence local law enforcement.

But I bet there’s a bunch of Freepers that think this is bad...because of the stated motives.

Not because it’s necessarily bad.

Most of the stuff listed is either clearly federal or clearly local. It sounds like the Feds provide the locals with specialized personnel and equipment, and train some locals, but it’s not really clear what the advantages to the locals are. I’m sure the FBI likes to get info from local sources, so they don’t have to spend time doing it themselves. I’m also sure the locals get important briefings from the FBI. All in all however, the JTTF sounds more like a badge-shiner for the FBI than anything really necessary.

I know Portland is doing this out of a spiteful death wish, but it’s hard to find great value in this.

I don’t trust either the FBI or Portland officials, so I don’t give a darn about this.

Actually, Wheeler has been a worse problem on most issues than the black woman.
