A group aligned with the radical left-wing group Antifa sent a tweet Sunday in which it appeared to praise an alleged arson attempt at a law enforcement officer's home.
The group, Pacific Northwest Youth Liberation Front, included an article on how federal law enforcement agencies were investigating the incident, which law enforcement said might be linked to recent protests in Portland. According to Oregon Public Broadcasting, the Washington County Sheriff's Office has already claimed the incident was arson.
"This is so cool," the group tweeted along with the article.
When contacted by Fox News, Twitter did not immediately say whether the post violated its policies.
A law enforcement official reportedly said that there was a "concern in this case that the officer was surveilled and followed home." Sunday's tweet came after months of protests in cities like Portland, Ore., and Seattle, where some destroyed or defaced property.
The PNW Youth Liberation Front describes itself as a "[d]ecentralized network of autonomous youth collectives." Apparently stating its goal, the group says: "Direct action towards total liberation."
The group has also resisted the idea that protests should be peaceful.
"To all the people on the streets who call themselves 'peaceful protesters'. I don’t know where you’ve been for the past 4+ years, but being peaceful doesn’t stop the police, how do I know this?" the account tweeted this summer. "Because people have been doing this for years before you hopped on the protest trend."
The group wrote similar posts on its account.
"We've stood in the streets, hands up, non violent, and time and time again brutalized, shot with chemical weapons, and arrested," PNW Youth Liberation Front added in another tweet. "There's a simple reason why you haven't experienced intense police brutality yet, it's called Public F-----g Relations.

You try to torch my home, you will be removed from the scene at room temperature.Sickening!
Torch Twitter headquarters, and the homes of Soros and Gates. Maybe someone will get the message.
Never mind. Conservatives won't allow such payback.
...in pieces.
Sooo, if Antifa ever gets pissed at the abortion movement and firebombs all the clinics,Twitter won;t have a problem if their followers praise them...
Why does any conservative (i.e. classic liberal) use twitter?
Also, why does any Freeper post an article from fox news?
JoMa
Did FOX Snooze cheer them on or blame it on white supremacists?
Antifbort?
“Pacific Northwest Youth Liberation Front”, a decentralized network of autonomous youth collectives.”
A dead arsonist/rioter/looter is the only good arsonist/rioter/looter.
Simply: if We the People start killing them they will not come.
Even now these commie trash stay where they apparently feel protected by local government.
It’s been a strange year..Anything can happen
Every Twitter employee should be doxed, hunted down, homes burned etc....
See two sides can be barbaric. Keep it up lefties, just keep it up.
Keep it up lefties, just keep it up.
Conservatives have been saying this for decades. The problem is they don't realize the last few lines in the sand have already taken them over the cliff.
Agreed! In spades!
Yutes need them some anarchy
Exactly. If people haven’t fought back by now...
These are the people the media, and Marxist Democrats, want us to surrender our nation to.
So “Cancel Culture” is GOOD when you do it.
Check.
In these individualized skirmishes with anarchists vs. good citizens the outcome of gunfire by the accosted mostly results in Jail for the good guys.
Most good guys are waiting for the all out war where in the chaos and fog of war the survivors won’t be charged with crimes when the smoke clears
Another interim work-around might be dial-a-sniper..where’d those shots come from??
I’m confused, are they the Pacific Northwest People’s Front or the People’s Front of Pacific Northwest
