Um, why do I have a feeling, this won't work?

"The Multnomah County District Attorney’s Office will prosecute serious criminal offenses, including arson and physical violence."

If the DA will only prosecute "serious" crime, most of the protesters will face no jail time. Catch and release.

Does he want to protect free speech?

Then he needs to crush the anarchists.

What a pile. The only reason this is happening is because they are learning of the turning sentiment showing up in polls.

She is not going to do anything but host a clusterf—k meeting of her criminal staff, the local ANTIFA/BLM criminals, and the idiot mayor and his criminal staff .... I’m sure they will end the violence. /s/s/

Duh.
You remove a barrier, and expect everyone to just stand there and not move on to the next barrier?
That’s just retarded.

Why would the other counties put their officers in harms way when the DA won’t prosecute people that they arrest while risking if they do one thing not to 100% perfection the DA will prosecute them. Tell the governor and mayor to take a flying leap.

How many state troopers surrounding her house to make sure she doesn’t get what Ted Wheeler got?

“cycle of violence” rubs me the wrong way. Hear it used in reference to Israel and the Arabs. It implies there is a moral equivalence between the rioters and peaceful citizens and/or police. It implies both sides are to blame for violence in Portland.

You mean the same mob that chants "F*%k Ted Wheeler" every night? I'm sure that meeting will be an amazing success.

“...a unified law enforcement plan which includes a community forum for Mayor Wheeler, protest organizers and community.”


Will the meeting include Blue Lives Matter organizers, MAGA organizers, and citizens whose businesses have been destroyed? Or the groups labeled by the unbiased press as ‘far-right extremists who wave American flags and go unmasked? Will they be invited to the ‘unified law-enforcement plan?

OSP ambushed one of the violent instigators in the woods and forced him into a snowy ditch where the murdered him.

Why have these violent criminals in Portland gotten away with felonious activity for so long now?
