ABC KATU - Portland

These rioters think this is all just a game—that they can behave like savages, and there won’t be repercussions.

And apparently the mayor of Portland agrees.

quote:

"I spoke with US Attorney Bill Williams about the injuries and learned that the U.S. Marshals Service will be conducting a full investigation," Mayor Wheeler said on Sunday. "I am calling on the federal government to be thorough and transparent with their findings. I’m concerned that the actions of federal officers last night escalated, rather than de-escalated, already heightened tensions in our city."

We’re approaching the point where no man or woman will enter the law enforcement profession.
I don’t blame ‘em; their hands are all but tied.

It was a Fed who domed her, not some city cop, she’s fighting a losing battle, and she shouldn’t have been there if she feared repercussions

Marshals: next time aim at the groin. We really need to stop the bloodline from producing.

Tonight the PD brought in the K9 force.
Would love to see ‘em do their thing.

Yeah, because the mayor of Portland is an expert at deescalation

Portland used to be a nice-looking city. Now it's a dump on par with other democrat utopias like detroit and baltimore.

I'm not looking forward to this school year. Part of my job is teaching our school district's Law and Public Safety class. I'm not sure how I'm going to look these kids in the eyes and tell them that they should be cops. While I know that it's a noble profession if their hearts are in the right place, it's still a complete shitshow due to the politics.

So much easier to just not respond to the mayor when he calls for help when the mob arrives. And the mob WILL arrive, book it.

The feds are there to protect federal property.
It seems like they are doing a good job of making sure the federal government property is not looted or burned down.

De-escalation does not mean allow crowd to destroy property and when they are done the crowd leaves.

Results of the investigation:

Tear gas can: 1
Stupid pasty kid that thinks he's John Cusack: 0

Does he want a rematch?

Why the Marshalls, that seems like a weird agency to look into this?


Edit nm: it was around a courthouse, I guess that’s why?

You talking about the one that picked up the canister and threw it back? That protestor?

I wish there was a better angle on the moment of impact... home boy dropped like a sack of potatoes...
