Four Arrested for Arson, One a ‘Regular Attendee’ of Anti-Cop Rallies in Seattle

Four individuals — two in Washington, one in Oregon, and another in California — have been arrested for arson as firefighters battle dozens of blazes across the West Coast. One of the arrestees is reportedly a “regular attendee” of anti-police rallies in Seattle.

Michael Jarrod Bakkela, 41, has been accused of arson, partially sparking the massive Almeda fire, according to the Oregon State Fire Marshal’s Office.

Elsewhere, authorities arrested two individuals in connection with the fires in Washington. One of the suspects, Jeffrey Alan Acord, has been accused of setting a fire along Highway 167. He live-streamed himself on the scene of the fire and reported it to police, claiming that he “literally pulled over to call it in.”

“Other drivers, however, told police they watched the 36-year-old Puyallup man walk into a field carrying a lighter and cardboard,” KIRO 7 reported.

The outlet added that Acord is a “regular attendee at Seattle ‘defund police’ rallies.” He is also facing charges for allegedly breaking into a gas station.

The news comes as Democrat politicians continue to blame the fires across the region on climate change

Not surprising, but all of the media in Oregon is running with...

“Claims of arson by Antifa are myths and conspiracy theories”

If you go to YouTube and search “Oregon Arson” you’ll see plenty of these newscasts, followed by comments that 100% disparage their local news...people know who is doing this, it’s the anarchist/antifa/blm crowd.

Just try searching Google for these stories. All I did was type in “arson” and “Oregon” and Google comes back with hundreds of articles, all practically screaming at me that “It Wasn’t Antifa!!!”

Umm Google, I didn’t ask for your opinion, or anyone else’s. I wanted to read news stories about the people who have been arrested for arson in Oregon. A legitimate search engine would have given me those results first.

Yes, some of the fires have been set by arsonists...and some of the worst fires, such as the Beachie Creek fire, were started by lightning in mid-August and let burn.

The Beachie Creek fire, for instance, was controlled to remain small, for some reason, until the high east winds and VERY low humidity event of a week ago.

Never Have I seen so many wildfires at one time in this nation. I can’t think of a consequence other than the death sentence for these arsonists. Let the jurors only be taken from the areas hurt by the fires.

Just went over to CNN.com...

Not ONE mention of anyone arrested for arson in the Pacific Northwest on their homepage. Not even in their search engines. Total blackout of actual news on this over there.

This should be death penalty material. People have died and lost their homes and possessions.

Agreed. Never happen, but being burned at the stake would be a ‘just’ manner of death.

Climate Change is POWERFUL. It can make people want to set fires, destroy forests, kill wildlife and humans and destroy property. And defund the police.

I’m starting to understand why Pelosi considers it THE Existential Threat.

“Agreed. Never happen, but being burned at the stake would be a ‘just’ manner of death.”

As a minor league history buff, the pictures of these Antifa Creeps/Criminals/Arsonists have trigger some historical ?’s in my old mind.

Like how many of those in early America sentenced as witches
were anti human pieces of trash like our current Antifa thugs/thuggets arrested in Oregon this past week?

Trust zero local mayors, police officers and local Oregone media re the reality of Antifa Arsonists in Oregone setting the recent fires. They will try to squash any stories showing that Antifa Thugs/Thuggets set the fires.

Most Sheriffs and their deputies are probably reliable. The Oregone State Police and their Fish and Game Division are probably reliable.

Of course our worthless National Media will ignore any fires set by their beloved Antifa thugs/thuggettes!
