Is there an article to link to confirm this? I'm going to need more sources.

What makes you think any of us would want to live in Texas? Driving across Texas was the most boring 16 hours of my life.

That is true. Luckily, living in Texas doesn’t require a drive across the entire state in the normal course of life.

A federal law enforcement source shared with Law Enforcement Today that the feds are looking into whether the cases are linked together… and warn there could be more “attacks”.

“We are reacting to a coordinated series of attempts to start fires anywhere and everywhere in Oregon. Public and Private lands, incorporated and unincorporated areas.

By all indications so far in the preliminary stages of these investigations there is a coordinated effort on the part of these individuals to start fires in areas that are the least protected and most vulnerable then slowing working their way into more populated areas and neighborhoods.

Please take this information as an advisory for you own account and welfare and please act in good faith with due diligence to plan accordingly for your own safety and the well being of your community.”
quote:
There are current concerns and allegations that many of these people who have started fires may be related to Antifa. However, these allegations have not be confirmed.

Law enforcement sources throughout Oregon and California did confirm for us that investigations are underway to see if a number of these fires are tied together.

According to Q13 Fox, Washington State Patrol Trooper Ryan Burke reported that a man was caught setting a fire in the brush. State patrol also sourced a woman who cited a man walking on the highway in Sumner holding a lighter.

When an officer questioned Acord's presence, the suspect claimed that he was recovering his $1,000 recording equipment, because the camera case allegedly flew out of his backpack while biking the previous day to his girlfriend's place in Bellevue.

"I've been out here all day searching for my camera," Acord told police, also noting the loss of his camera bag on the freeway in a prior Facebook post. "I'm trying to cover the area thoroughly."
quote:
The Post Millennial researched Acord's history of anti-police protesting and encounters with law enforcement. In June, Acord led a Black Lives Matter march in Seattle. Previously in 2014, Acord was caught with a cache of weapons and arrested during the Ferguson Decision Protest. Officers found the man carrying a 7-inch knife in his backpack, a box of ammunition, an assault rifle, a shotgun, and a box full of illegal fireworks in his car, according to a KOMO news report. When officers contacted Acord, he admitted to carrying a loaded gun without a permit. His bail was set for $10,000.

I find it a little funny, I have a former co-worker that moved out there a few years ago. Back in July, it was a bunch of FB posts

"look how calm everything is"
"R's a blowing this out of proportion, it's perfectly calm and peaceful"
"guys, look at this Portland skyline, does it look like death and destruction?"

etc, etc, etc.....


Just yesterday: "I'm worried, we have to clean off trash and spray paint almost every morning, fires are burning less than 1 block from here. There are fights and violence weekly across the street. And now the air is filled with smoke and forest fires rage on the outskirts of town. Please pray for our safety"
