How much more money have Portland businesses lost since this was published?
Didn't you read what Korky wrote? "Private property gets damaged every day....so what?"
23 million? Pssshhhhh....Korky wipes his arse with that.

You realize people get detained and questioned all the time right? By local, county, state, and feds. It's not new. They asked questions they believed them to be person A after questioning they were person B and let go.

Its a proven fact that Antifa has run wild in Portland unchecked. Don't give a shite about the Proudboys...but if they did this it would be actual "kidnapping" and a crime punishable up to life in prison. So that is a fricking retarded argument. Nothing stops anyone from dressing in camo and snatching anyone off the street other than the law.

The vast majority of protesters are peaceful and want their corrupt police departments to change for the better. You are being manipulated into believing that the few bad actors represent all of them. You believe that it is an anarchist movement. But obviously peaceful people are being gassed and shot with pepper balls on a daily basis. This is exactly the behavior they are protesting against.
You do realize you have someone running for mayor In Portland who claims “she is Antifa”, right?

As long as they're not being destructive, I have no issue with any form of protesting.

Good. That’s the only way to deal with this Marxist scum.

I mean, they’ve only been doing THIS SAME EXACT THING for about 100 years around the globe. This playbook is old as shite. If not for the prog media propping it up it would have fallen apart long ago.

shite I wish they would round up the rioters and deport them to some far away island.

When have conservatives ever been against using law enforcement to quell rioting?

conservatives
There's your first problem. Trump supporters who claim to be "conservative" are anything but conservative. The man is running spending money like it's going out of style and robbing taxpayers blind (278 days of golf at his own clubs, for one).
Conservatives have always been supportive of local LE handling these situations, perhaps calling in the NG. The Feds? Read every rant about why 2nd amendment supporters feel the 2nd amendment is the most important amendment of all and then tell me they aren't being hyprocritical by not shouting down the use of federal secret police in a city where neither the local mayor, nor the state governor, asked for the intervention.
They are who we thought they were.

I can't keep up with all you big government types, so I'll leave you with this:
If you support sending in federal officers to handle things, you need to be damned sure that they are handling criminals and not assaulting innocent Americans.
If you are okay with questionable arrest procedures, you need to recognize that this exemplifies the type of problem that people are protesting against.
If you are convinced that antifa, literally anti-fascists, are all terrorists and that our government can be trusted to accurately identify and be allowed to treat anti-fascists as terrorists, then you need to be extremely sure that every single government action is actually anti-terrorist and NOT anti-anti-fascist.
If you continue to explain away every example of local and federal officers stepping way over the line as somehow justified or as if we don't know who the true antagonist is, you need to ask yourself why you believe that every single report of arson or violence is the work of "antifa" or other far left extremists and not the work of agents provocateur working to justify any and every government action. These departments in Portland, Seattle, Minneapolis and other cities are known to be corrupt, and have been for decades.
If what has happened so far hasn't crossed your line yet, make sure you have a line and that you stand firm by it.
These fed operations are scaling up now. If you still support this shite next week and next month, and if your fellow Americans continue to oppose these big government actions, you need to sit down and think long and hard and make sure you know who the real enemies of America are here.

Not only do I wholeheartedly support fed involvement to protect US property, I hope they do more. As for the criminals and low life “protesters”, they get what’s coming to them. Good riddance to these scumbags.

You will say absolutely anything to blame Trump and absolve the rioters. I can only hope some peaceful rioters show up at your house to protest their fascism fantasy.

You can't serious? They are anarchist who regularly engage in fascistic tactics and violence. They are actual terrorist, they don't have to me brown and middle eastern to be a terrorist. little rich white kids can be terrorist too.

Those cities are run by far left governments who claim the problem is systemic racism even though they have run those cities for decades. And are you really trying to claim here in yet another straw boogie man that these are false flag operations by the evil fascist Trump? Really?

I'm pretty sure its Antifa and the far left that want to burn the country i have defended for over 20 years to the ground and replace it with a socialist shite hole. Yeah i know who the enemy is!

I don't view it as big government when rioters and hooligans are rounded up.
Proper and justified enforcement of the law is not "big" government, it is basic government.
Here's the issue dude.
you rightly point out that the "vast majority" of protesters don't act violently. But the issue is raw numbers. if you have 10,000 people in the streets and 5% are violent, that's 500 dangerous people roaming around. that's enough to do serious damage if they aren't stopped.
I think people are just frustrated that you haven't displayed the slightest bit of empathy towards small business owners, many of whom are immigrants. Is it possibly because you view business owners, even small ones, as the bourgeoisie who steal excess value from labor? So when their store goes up in flames or is ransacked, you see it as economic justice?
