Despite advance warnings, Portland Police Bureau officers were powerless to stop another night of rioting, arson, and gunfire carried out by Antifa. Rioters set multiple fires and engaged in drive-by gunfire.

Antifa rioters set an Apple Store on fire Friday night during the third declared riot in five days. The fire was one of the multiple fires Portland police officers were powerless to prevent.

Portland Police Bureau officials issued a warning Friday night that a planned “Direct Action” by Antifa could lead to a “high fire danger.”

A statement from police officials warns:

The Portland Police Bureau is aware that individuals are planning a so called “direct action” event this evening at Director Park (with a 9 p.m. march). Such events have historically included wanton destruction of public and private property, violence and the active threat of harm by thrown or propelled objects, fire and impact weapons. Similarly advertised events promoted and then engaged in arson and riots.

Despite the advance warning, Antifa rioters carried out their plans to create more property damage in the Downtown District Friday night.

Portland Fire & Rescue units arrived to extinguish the flames before the fire spread inside the Apple Store.

This is a video of yours about Major Geopolitical issues I posted last night. Civil war in America being used to distract us while all these other wars happen makes much sense. Also explains more of what the marxists are up to.

Its time for roof top snipers

[dfwgator]

Just doing what the folks there voted for.

[Starboard]

The people of Portland are getting what the people of Portland voted for. It’s their problem.

[Starboard]

Kind of a rhetorical question but what happens after there’s no more of Portland that hasn’t been burned?

**************

Burners will burn, rioters will riot, and looters will loot. Especially when there are no consequences.

They will just move on to another playground after their favorite liberal cities are wiped out. To your point, that is the logical extension of this mayhem.

[Starboard]

And it’s just going to keep happening until the hammer comes down.

****************

The hammer only comes down on freedom loving citizens, not the anarchists.

[Flick Lives]

Portland has gone from weird to third-world in about five years.

[RetiredTexasVet]

Move over Chicago, Portland is racing you to the bottom.

[Starboard]

I wonder when, if ever, the residents of Portland will vote differently.

*************

No, leftists are leftists. They are wired differently than the rest of us. They are immune to facts, logic and the lessons of history. They don’t change.

RE: Shoot rioters on sight.

I can see the response from China now - you dare to condemn us for doing in TianAnMen Square what you did in Portland. You have no moral authority to condemn us.

[libertylover]

Powerless, my ass. They are not doing what needs to be done. Meet force with force.

I think they mean the mayor and governor won't allow them to do much to stop it.

[Deplorable American1776]

An Apple store (liberal business) being set on fire by Antifa (liberal looks). I’m not sure if I should laugh or cry... 😀. I’ll enjoy my popcorn...

[Rurudyne]

So Chinese citizens were in an actual uprising in the streets attacking the ChiCom government, never mind running riot and attacking their fellow citizens (which is actually the more evil of the two)? Even for a short time? I think not. A mere demonstration is not an uprising (no matter how the POS Democrats and other deep state in DC want to talk about recent events).

There is no comparison.

But the angst and ire of commies and useful idiots alike matters not to me. Communist lie, it’s just what they do. Expect nothing better of them.

And again, I’m not saying our government should deal with these AntiFa scum or their confederates WHEN they are ACTUALLY rioting and looting.

Simply, their intended victims shouldn’t rely on the government to save them. Government putting rioters and looters down would arguably help their fetid Revolution in the future. The people putting them down by contrast shatters the web of lies by which they sustain their trending towards a Red Guard like activities.

As with anything, when the criminals live in fear of ordinary citizens they want to prey upon (what they might do to them if they act up) then they, the criminals, are kept in check.

True, Florida’s Ron DeSantis just signed a law that arson at riots will get you arrested. He’s won’t put up with that BS... 😀

[Blood of Tyrants]

If the Proud Boys had planned a truly peaceful rally, you can guarantee the Portland police would have been out there in full force to break them up.

Yep. That's why I think we may see red states become more assertive if the federal government is no longer doing its job. 2024 - Democrats win the Presidency, they win the House barely, they have 51 Senators. You think they will meet the Republicans in the middle? Fat chance. They will continue to do what they are doing right now. So we have to depend on the States to check the power of the Federal Government.

It seems to me the pols holding the police back are accomplices in murder, arson, theft and whatever other felonies and misdemeanors occur.

[FLT-bird]

Well now this puts me in a conundrum. I detest Klantifa but I fully support burning down Apple stores.

What to do, What to do. LOL!

“If the Proud Boys had planned a truly peaceful rally, you can guarantee the Portland police would have been out there in full force to break them up.”

Not just the Portland police but Oregon State Police also. Bisex Brown would call in all detachments from across the state.
