Watching the angry mob chase the mayor away was surreal. He was being verbally and physically assaulted as his security detail tried to protect him.

Funny watching people that think they're friends with the mob find out that the mob is friends with no one

It's funny how they all have to learn this for themselves. They seem incapable of learning from other people's mistakes.

Don't these mayors learn? They are so dumb, this happens everytime they go down to be "with the people". The extreme leftist mayors aren't extreme enough for the communist mobs.

How long do you want to ignore this user?

But wait, ya'll haven't been reading this morning's news headlines: "Mayor of Portland tear-gassed with protestors!"
Pathetic suit got his headline, and the talking points are rolling out strongly:
Trump's stormtroopers defying the will of the people and city leaders!
This is how dictatorships are formed!
Without peaceful protests, what does this country have??
I utterly despise these liars and leftists - including the ones that post on this site. Two-face Democratic leaders that have been in office for decades -- now jumping on the bandwagon, just for votes. Made-millionaire politicians in the pocket of Communist China, turning a blind eye to **** show, espionage, sabotage, and thuggery of their government, but screaming and yelling on social media and televesion about how USA is being destroyed by the Trump administration and conservatives (ATTACK on the CONSTITUTION and REPUBLIC!!!).
This anarchy and violence is funded and organized strongly, with one goal -- to destabilize this country and prop up the almighty appointed Socialist-Leftist Democratic leaders.
George Soros and the other puppet-masters behind this can't die soon enough. These peaceful protesters (breaking the laws, damaging private/public property and assaulting citizens) need to be made examples of - by the law and/or the sword.

Well, it's sort of working in Trump's favor, apparently.

Now, I don't think 40 percent of black voters will vote for Trump, but I do think the violence we all know is coming from the left will drive probably a low teen percentage to vote for the GOP, particularly in red, and toss up states (where things are less insane).

WhoopItGigem and GMasterO- To both, is there a difference between a "legitimate protest and domestic terrorism"? Does destroying one's property fall under "legitimate protest or domestic terrorism"? Where in the Constitution does it give a person/organization the right to destroy another's property? GMaster, you use the term, paramilitary. That is a term used by communist organizations back in the 1950's. Who's rights are being violated, the property owners, or the domestic terrorist?
If I may be so bold, study the Communist Manifesto and it's 75+ Pillars; Weather Underground Manifesto; BLM and the New Black Panther Party manifestos. Antifa is the current Weather Underground of the 1960's-1970's.
The objective of all: destroy America and anything associated with it.

Useful idiots are only tolerated until they are no longer considered useful.

We need a Pinochet and a few choppers to go in and send a proper message.
And yet I keep on seeing and hearing people say the facist government should not be arresting people and using force. Some people are a special kind of stupid
When do peaceful protesters have eye protection, helmets, shields, and weapons. I say game on and let em fight for the courthouse against the federal officers. It will be over in under 5 minutes.
More generally, it is far from clear given the contrasts have seen in most cases (not all though, Chicago comes to mind) but most cases, between the peaceful elements leaving at sunset and the night time one.
Why allow protests at night at all?

I know Austin is full of crazies. But, what is up with the NW? People are insane up there.
Well there is that in the lawless case ones of present. Was more referring to the kind that do go through the process of notification and informing the authorities. There are even left ones that do that peacefully.
But (at least pre-covid) its never made sense to allow Antifa masks or those at night.

I'm thinking it's time for live rounds. 54 days of this bull***** Commie signs everywhere. They are having a tiny little "revolution". I wish they'd sign a declaration of Independence and we could just snuff it out now.
I value all life and don't want people killed, but this is getting insanely out of hand.

I see a lot of helmets, goggles, and some gas mask. Yeah someone who wants to peacefully protest does not bring those

"Portland mayor tear gassed after speaking with protesters on presence of federal agents
Mayor Ted Wheeler was tear gassed in downtown Portland early Thursday morning, according to video and posts on Twitter from a New York Times journalist.
"It stings. It's hard to breathe. I can tell you with 100% honesty I saw nothing that provoked this response," Wheeler said to the Times camera. "I'm not afraid but I am pissed off."
It's unknown at this time who is responsible for deploying the tear gas and at this point, there is nothing to indicate the mayor was targeted. CNN has reached out to the mayor's office for additional comment.
The video appeared to come after Wheeler joined crowds to listen to protesters and answer their questions after violent clashes between demonstrators and federal forces."
Ted getting the love from both sides of the fence...
Sad.

The time for talking is over. This has gone on for 2 freaking months because the prog leadership is unable and unwilling to stop it. The Portland mayor got a little taste of the mob that he erroneously thought were his "friends" and fellow comrades.
These people are not protesters, they are anarchists ratcheting up how far they can go with each successive night. I would prefer lethal deterrence be used as that will end this quickly; however, there are still effective non-lethal actions that can be taken to shut this ***** down. Requires leadership that doesn't fear the media.

You can't do that, however warranted it becomes. Aggiehawg has outlined and warned of this well. They want their "Kent State" moment. And BennyBlanco's post is correct about the ones at the top and what they are up to. The seditious media this time would make sure the Kent State style incident wasn't even covered a fraction of a degree accurate. As hawg has posted, in the original example it actually led to a dial down.

There is nothing unlawful about wearing a helmet, goggles and gas masks. The guys in Michigan that all brought there actual weapons legally must not have been seeking a peaceful protest either?P.U.T.U said:

What I am really curious to understand is why MORE arrests haven't been made by the LEOs if so many of the protestors are doing something illegal.
Bottom Line for me is all citizens regardless of political belief deserve the rights to assemble and equal application of the law. If they break the law. Arrest them.
The same is true of the LEOs. If they ILLEGALLY beat someone, arrest them.
Rules for thee and not for me
Rights for me and not for thee.
IDGAF about arrests at this point I want to see epic beat downs of the rioters as a deterrent.
But those same "lawful" citizens are destroying property and throwing objects at police. The helmets are to protect them from police fired projectiles and the gas mask are for the tear gas the police are using to disperse a crowd doing something illegal, not for just standing there. Should do a before and after picture to show how much damage is being done.
This is marxism and needs to be stopped before it spreads.

You don't bring gas masks, etc. unless you're planning to start crap.Quote:

The Michigan pro-gun protest, they brought weapons to prove the point that they were peaceful, even with weapons.
Because the LEO's are typically outnumbered by 5 to 1 or more. There is just no way to make arrests. The best they can do is to hold the line and protect the federal building.Whoop It Gigem Style said:There is nothing unlawful about wearing a helmet, goggles and gas masks.

That's pretty reprehensible. There's no way I'm ever going to bow down to people that can do that. I'd rather fight a civil war again
