I really, really, really hope Proud Boys and those guys and Trump supporters in general all just don't go anywhere near Portland. The antifa mob is gonna torch the place tomorrow and these other groups should go nowhere near it, or they'll be fingered for everything that happens.

Fashion militia. I notice she's holding the shotgun safely if not effectively. I'm wondering if some of them are getting training and who is training them. I probably don't have the experience to comment, but I'm not sure that any of the three instructors I have had in the past would accept anyone overtly antifa as a student. Of course any antifa getting trained might show up disguised as normal people.



So now the Mayor calls in the National Guard? I guess he needed to wait till he was reelected?

I find it fascinating that a "movement" which has no organization nonetheless seems to have officers:

For some strange reason, insurers no longer want to cover businesses in Portland

Gee, I wonder why?. Must be because of those bad Trump supporters.

Regarding this recent "Portland Red House" nonsense where the usual suspects violently showed up in the name of racism justice, I saw this very informative article on the "indigenous and black" family in question. Remove "indigenous and black", and what's underneath is a grifter family. The house was paid off decades ago. Loans were then taken out for bail and lawyers for a criminal son (who is now the one spearheading lawsuits and protests against the racist man).

This is nothing but a family who has made both poor decisions and criminal decisions. They were never confused about who to send their loan payments to - they just used that as an excuse to get out of paying altogether. The state gave them multiple options for loan mediation, which the family refused, and even the extremely liberal wack job 9th Circuit has denied their claims on multiple occasions.

Yet here we have antifa and BLM once again railing against systemic something or other.  ;/

Maybe it'll be the new attraction for the city?  If you want Blues music you go to Memphis, if you want Broadway shows you go to New York, and if you want to Riot you go to Portland.

First day of 2021, and "planned riots". Cops retreating on all fronts. This is why these antifa jackasses become more and more emboldened. Because they've been pampered so long, only defensive violence will stop their behavior at this point.

Guess now the election is, basically, over ANIFA has worn out their usefulness.
Of course I'll believe it when I see it.

Time for Wheeler to double-down on the appeasement of Antifa.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

Antifa/BLM have moved further out from Portland.  They staged a riot in downtown Tigard Friday night.  Tigard is where my father lives and my youngest son works, so this has me a bit worried.
Only one rioter was arrested.  He was charged with felony riot and was, of course, quickly released without bail.

Nope, because to those in charge of this mess, the useful idiots are merely pawns.  And who cares if you lose a pawn or two in a game of chess?

And if someone does return like for like against antifa, then they are arrested, jailed, and their lives ruined.
